I suppose it could be the placebo effect? Or something like that? I know that if you are very up and positive about something you can have the feeling that it is doing something when in fact it is really just an increase of endorphins and the like. After the initial excitement wears off, the former condition returns.

I have a lot of questions about this (and any other supposed MS "cure"). There have been lots of snake oil salesmen out to make a buck and most of these just don't pan out.

My niece tried many of these over the years, from bee sting therapy to oxygen chambers and she's still in very poor shape from the MS. I am very critical and so far only open to those that have gone through clinical trials and have shown effectiveness for treating MS when it comes to medical procedures or medications.
