Order a free brochure available at the association's Web site (see Resources below). It includes the usually-moderate fees for treatment and naturopathic medicines.

Locate practitioners who specialize in ways you can relieve stress through natural therapies, such as aromatherapy. Consider combining your Palmtherapy with use of other holistic procedures found at the AANM Web site.
4
Expect methods of treatment such as nutritional evaluation, botanical medication suggestions, mind-body therapy and lifestyle changes.
Tips & Warnings
Use Palmtherapy with or without equipment.
The creator of Palmtherapy, Moshe Zwang, suggests you can use some techniques on your own; but a certified palm therapist should be sought for best results.
If you're experiencing heart palpitations or blurred vision, consult a physician immediately.
Before you start any alternative medical technique, be aware that many have not been scientifically evaluated. Often, only limited information is available about their safety and effectiveness. Each state and each discipline has its own rules about how alternative medicine practitioners can be professionally licensed. If you decide to visit one, choose one licensed by a recognized national organization. Consult your primary health care provider about your decision first. Keep your doctor informed about the alternative medical technique you undertake.
