Alternative Physicians Dandruff has been proved to respond to homeopathic treatments, acupuncture and acupressure and special massage. Cell salts and flower essences also have added benefit. Before undertaking treatments that involve serious herbs, cell salts or homeopathy, consult the appropriate alternative health care provider. Summary Dandruff can affect many different people in every age group. There is still controversy over whether dandruff is caused by fungus or by excessive sebum production of the scalp.
