Neural therapy

With this therapy, small amounts of local anaesthetic are injected under the skin in specific locations. The sites of injection may be acupuncture points. 

Neural therapy and MS

One small study of neural therapy in people with MS found that there was improvement in about two-thirds of people after having the injections. 

Larger and more rigorous studies are needed to back up these results. 

Neural therapy is generally thought to be well tolerated, though repeated injections could cause scarring. The local anaesthetic could produce allergic reactions.
