Is there any centre in the world that focuses on alternative treatments for epilepsy , such as stress handling, herbs and other types of healing? Hi Dr XXXX, Thanks, I am a mother of a daughter that has been diagnosed with epilepsy, mainly abscence seizures (two grand mals provoked by anorexia , four years ago). We are completely frustrated with XXXX doctors who sort of just shrug their shoulders and say they don t know. Ayurveda for example has another approach to disease and it seems you have to become your own doctor to get anywhere.
