What is the best way to deal with neuropathy using holistic medicine?
Posted by admin on Oct 27, 2008
Specifically, homeopathy or ANY type of alternative treatment which is effective.
The neuropathy began following a root canal in December. The symptoms are tingling, prickling, itching, extreme skin sensitivity.
Neuropathy can be a very difficult thing to treat. I have seen some success with acupuncture but results are widely varied. It is not only dependant on the skill of the acupuncturist but also on the neuropathy of the patient.
Good clinical success has been documented with the use of amitriptyline and TENs in combination. Much better than either used alone. As you might have already found though, what works for one person wont work for everyone.
Good luck.
