Regarding herbal approaches, it's best to consult with an ILADS-educated LL (lyme literate) doctor who has completed four years of post-graduate medical education in the field of herbal and nutritional medicine -
- and someone who is current with ILADS' research & presentations, past and present.
Integrative / Holistic M.D., etc. (Be aware that those in this category can have various levels of formal herbal &/or nutritional education, perhaps even just a short course. Do ask first.)
Links to many articles and books by holistic-minded LL doctors of various degrees who all have this basic approach in common:
Understanding of the importance of addressing the infection(s) fully head-on with specific measures;
Knowing that support supplements are important, but NEVER enough alone. And knowing which supplements have direct impact, which are only support and which are both.
You can compare and contrast many approaches.

RIFE links, too. -

- Backing up, I see you state that you want "to treat as naturally as possible."
That's admirable but even many LL NDs insist upon antibiotics, along with herbal & nutritional support.
Good medicine is what works. With lyme, that is most often a combination approach that is frequently rotated to focus on addressing infection while supporting the body.
Most important: an ILADS-educated LLMD or ILADS-educated LL ND - or both. Now, most LL doctors have their own approaches. It's just that they need know the science of lyme, etc. and be familiar with ILADS research and on-going workshop news, etc.
(What ILADS is) . . . WHY you need an ILADS-educated, Lyme Literate Doctor - starting with assessment / evaluation. -
