Types of alternative and complementary therapies

This is not a list of complementary and alternative medicines recommended by the MS Society, nor is this a comprehensive list of all complementary and alternative medicines available. Rather this is a summary of all those that are most commonly asked about by people with MS and those that have been researched in treating MS.

Remember to inform your doctor of any complementary or alternative medicine you are considering, so they can ensure it is safe.
