A member asked:
What types of crystals will help with seizures?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None. The New Age: pseudoscience of healing power of crystals has been refuted in scientific studies, e.g., http://sciencebasedlife.wordpress.com/2011/09/05/crystal-healing-magic-cures-or-just-rocks/. In any controlled study of medication vs. Placebo, ~ 30% of participants claim benefit from the placebo. Priming patients to believe in it enhances placebo effect. Anti-epileptic medications work for most seizures.
