Epilepsy in children

By Archived User | Updated: Dec 31, 2021 | Published: Dec 31, 2021

My daughter, aged 7 years, has had two episodes of seizure within a period of 4 months. I would like to get her treated without medicines. Please suggest/ advise.

Chinese Medicine, acupuncture and possibly herbal medicine as well, can be very helpful for epilepsy. It takes consistent treatment, however, from a skilled practitioner. Something along the lines of weekly treatments (possibly every other week) for 3-6 months as a minimum. It may be less than that, or less frequent, but that is what you should be prepared for. Obviously this requires you to find someone locally.
