My response to my brother: Your point about the damage to the nerves being irreversible is compelling, but working with a shaman and with plant-spirit-medicines like peyote and ayahuasca can and has resulted in some impossible-to explain results. This is where reading the literature helps. and also, (hard for many), you have to trust other's experience. Every time someone works with a master shaman, in their element, like I did, the results are unique. So you can't say, "this, this and this worked for this percentage of patients with such and such a condition." The healing relationship is between the patient, the shaman and the medicine.
