    Can anyone recommend someone in cork that does alternative medicine or herbal remedies etc.
    I have a rash that I can't seem to get rid of. I've been to 2 different doctors about it and I've used about 5 different creams and even oral medicine. Just trying to think is there another way to look at this... Doctor is getting expensive for something that's not working!

    Thanks.

    Plus one for Garry Murphy, he fixed my neck after I had a car accident a couple of years back and although I'm normally a skeptic about alternative remedies I have to say acupuncture really worked for me!

    Beast of luck with it.

    I think maybe you should get that rash swabbed to see if it is some kind of infection which is non responsive to the treatments and may just require a different type of antibiotic. Best thing is to go back to your GP and keep telling him it isn't clearing up. My GP never charged for further visits if the problem hadn't resolved - worth trying. Good luck

    It's a while since I've seen her but Dr. Saskia DeVries used to work out of Castletownbere; she was based in Dr. John Lynne's practice back then.

    Or a guide price to any acupuncturists prices, is it the same as a dr? 40-50 per visit?
