What can be done to treat epilepsy 1

JOHANNESBURG - Having epilepsy does not need to be a debilitating or even life-threatening disease. Peter Olivier is a testament to that. He was seven years old when he was diagnosed with refractory epilepsy.

Jayne Bullen Chief Operating Officer at the Noakes Foundation discussed complementary and alternative therapies with eNCA.
