Tingling and numbness or burning pain in your hands and feet? Polyneuropathy is a widespread disease that affects millions of people and for which conventional treatment methods provide little relief or cure. The symptoms – including severe pain and sensory disturbances – have a significant impact on quality of life. Henry Greten investigates how holistic medicine, in particular Chinese medicine and naturopathy, open up new therapeutic possibilities: Can acupuncture and herbal medicine promote the healing process?
