MORE ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES FOR PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM LUNG CANCER AND MESOTHELIOMA
More Alternative Therapies to Relieve Mesothelioma Symptoms
Here are some more alternative therapies that the Mayo Clinic indicates can help to relieve the symptoms of Mesothelioma, and are worth discussing with your doctor.
Breath training. A nurse or physical therapist can teach you breathing techniques to use when you feel breathless. Sometimes you may feel breathless and begin to panic. Implementing these techniques may help you feel more in control of your breathing.
Relaxation exercises. Slowly tensing and relaxing different muscle groups may help you feel more at ease and breathe easier. Your doctor may refer you to a therapist who can teach you relaxation exercises so that you can do them on your own.
Sitting near a fan. Directing a fan to your face may help ease the sensation of breathlessness.
