does Thai traditional medicine have specialists ?

Featured Replies

A person close to me suffers from cervical spondylosis which is an irreversible wear of the upper spine and the neck.

She is prescribed by a neurologist since several years very tough medication such as Ultracet (and more than this)

I am sure that for pain treatment the Thai traditional medicine has good alternatives.

The problem is when calling for an appointment and asking for a doctor knowing about neurology the receptionist does not seem to understand this.

Following leading hospital is not far : does anybody know if they have the name of a neurologist to be consulted?

Has she thought about doing a cervical fusion.  If so I will ask my neurosurgeon I use to see if he can recommend any one. First off I will need a location of where you folks are.

Thank you but she wants to try first Thai herbal medicine

 

There are not as far as I know Thai TM practitioners specalizing in spinal or neurologic problems.

 

And in general Thai herbal treatments are unlikely to help this sort of pain except for CBD. the place you mention has a medical marijuana clinic and she would need to appoint directly with that, see  https://ttcmh.dtam.moph.go.th/index.php/knowledge/cannabis.html
