Get INSTANT Relief for Trigeminal Neural...

DR. ERIC BERG
About this episode

We’re going to look at some of the causes of trigeminal neuralgia and potential remedies.


There are two types of trigeminal neuralgia. Type 1 trigeminal neuralgia is characterized by unilateral, sudden, brief, shooting, or stabbing pain. It can reoccur every two seconds to two minutes from twice a day to 200 times per day. Type 2 trigeminal neuralgia is described as achy and chronic rather than intense.


Research has found associations between polyunsaturated fatty acids and several chronic diseases, including trigeminal neuralgia. Omega-6 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids that are highly inflammatory and are a large part of the average diet.


Research involving cadavers showed that many people who had trigeminal neuralgia also had certain viruses known to infect the ganglion (nerve bundles). The following viruses have been associated with trigeminal neuralgia:

•Herpes virus (HHV6)

•Shingles

•Epstein-Barr virus

•Cytomegaloviruses


These viruses are considered latent viruses because they go in and out of remission. Extract from shiitake mushrooms, known as AHCC, high doses of vitamin D3 combined with zinc, berberine, and stress reduction can help put these viruses back into remission.


PEA (Palmitoylethanolamide) + Luteolin can support your nerve tissue directly and target inflammation. DMSO is another powerful and penetrative anti-inflammatory that has been used to decrease phantom pain, post-operative pain, post-traumatic pain, and trigeminal neuralgia.


There’s an amazing technique that can reduce trigeminal neuralgia pain very quickly. It’s not a permanent fix, but I've seen it work to relieve pain in about 70% of cases.


Try the following technique for instant trigeminal neuralgia pain relief:

1. Isolate where the pain is coming from

2. Locate the mirror image on the opposite side of the body

3. Massage the area on the opposite side of the body (you should notice tenderness)

4. Check the bad side to determine changes to your pain level

5. Continue until your pain is manageable
