Do any of the alternative treatments for schizophrenia work?

My son has had schizophrenia for 10 years and is mostly noncompliant with the medication regimen. Even when he is compliant it doesnt seem to help much other than making him sluggish, heavy and unable to function.It takes away the terror but does not really allow him to live a "normal" life I have begun investigating some alternative treatments such as orthomolecular treatment, Edgar Cayce wet cell Battery, and nutritional protocols that address the whole person. I would like input from others on their experiences and what they found to be helpful in addition to medications,also caregivers impressions on the current treatments being offered for this devastating disease.

In my experience I have only seen Homeopathy work in schizophrenia and by working I mean curing not just an endless line of medicines all life long. The person was given remedies one after the other according to his individual symptoms and he was cured in about 3 months and this was a case of more ten 30 years standing with no relief just stupor created by conventional useless drugs.
You asked if Alternative medicine works in schizophrenia, I would say Yes it does !

the truth is, once a person is a schizophrenic, always a schizophrenic,, yes, a person may be remedied by medications and stuffs, but the disease is never really totally cured. Provide your son activities to engage into, to at least try to establish simple routines.. I should have known. I'm an OT.

Please remember that this disease can be cured with proper Ayurvedic and herbal medicines. I am here to part my experience as a health care practitioner so that patients suffering from chronic conditions can benefit. Trust is must to contact me on adam2madam@yahoo.com.

Schizophrenia can be treated with care and counselling after initial allopathic treatment in severe conditions. Alternate therapies that could be tried are traditional indian vedic spiritual methods such as "pranic" healing which treats the root cause of the disease by cleaning the spiritual body or the "aura" of the person, and gradually going into the root through the "chakras".
It is a wholistic system of healing that involves vegetarian diets for health and energy. It energises the body besides cleansing it of toxic build up.
Try it with an experience healer.
