I have tried both.

Dry needling did not help my neuropathy. It did help anytime that I had a disc bulge. My PT would dry needle the bulging area and it would be better in roughly 2 days vs 2-3 weeks without the treatment.

Acupuncture I believe is starting to help my neuropathy. I have only had 8 sessions so far but I started to notice reduction in my symptoms (pain, burning, tingling, etc...I have all the symptoms unfortunately) However, make note that I also have been in occupational therapy at the same time. My acupuncture doc and OT kind of tagged team up so they were not doubling up on treatments. For example, if my OT did cupping as part of my treatment that day then my acupuncture doc would do a different treatment (not cupping a second time) after my acupuncture treatment. So maybe the combo of the two started to relieve symptoms.

I am about to start another round of acupuncture and occupational therapy. I took about a month off for resting and getting the next round of appointments approved.

If you're interested I can keep you up to date with this current round to see if I think it continues to help or not? Just lemme know. I am more than happy to communicate with anyone here as we all try to find some relief.
