Acupuncture
Aromatherapy
Chiropractic: Dr. Christopher Scoma, Buckhead Wellness Center
Cranial-Sacral Therapy: Center Point Therapies
Massage Therapy: Center Point Therapies
Homeopathic Medicine (which differs from Herbs, which generally do not interact well with psych meds)
Hypnotherapy: Hypnosis Works
Postnatal Vitamin Supplements: Sound Formulas: After Baby Boost
Yoga: Vista Yoga
