HI Roz,

I wrap Canadian doctors into the same category of stone age too. I believe the standard curriculum in Germany includes much more than the North American medical schools. Neural Therapy is one such area western doctors learn about in German med school. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_therapy

I've just started exploring this so I have a lot more research to do. When I was first diagnosed with RSD I could only digest the information in small increments. Now I can't seem to find enough time to learn more. What is great is that this doctor is practicing in Bellingham WA and offering seminars to other doctors.

I agree with you that it is important to dig deep to find and treat the cause, not just the symptoms.

Jenno, thanks for that link to Dr Robert Schwartz, I just had a quick look and it looks very interesting too.

Much love and peace.

MsL
