Blueprint to Neuropathy?

Posted by hossie @hossie, Apr 22 2:03pm

Has anyone tried Blueprint to Nueropathy? Apparently it is a treatment approach that is being used by many chiropractors. It's long in duration and not cheap. I am not looking for a silver bullet, just some improvement in my feet. Thanks.

My experience with chiropractors and their "miracle" supplements is that they are just a money-maker. You can likely buy the same stuff for half the price online. That way you are only wasting half the amount of money.

SO TRUE

Amen to that. I am an 80 year old Vietnam Veteran and have worked with 15 different doctors and tried about everything. I use Sombra on all the parts of my body and ache the most, but it is only temporary. Would be great if someone ever comes up with something!! I am highly allergic to opiates and most medications so my life is slowly fading away! At least I have lived 80 glorious years and 38 of those with the love of my life and best friend who is in much better health than me and really spoils me. Semper Fi.

I just went to a local chiropractor here in SC for their evaluation using Blueprint for neuropathy. $9,900 -$12,700 for treatment was their pitch. The Blueprint system sounds convincing but if it was so good it would be all over the news and social media, in my opinion. Skeptical here.

I know exactly what you went through. In our area a chain called Disc Centers of America offered specialized decompression therapy using their machines. You went five times a week for a month to get "decompressed". Along with supplements that supposedly helped to correct bulging discs. I took my latest MRI. The chiropractor in charge didn't like the quality of the MRI (the interpretation showed no significant problems). So, he sent me for a fast CT scan at a local imaging center(they owed him a favor). When we came back, he had the scan ready to show us. "Look at this, see this disc" Very bad. That one is really bulging, etc.". He could get me started the next day. There was a "special". Only $9000 instead of the usual $12,000. Had the loan application ready to go. After clearing my mind, I said that I would take a day or two to decide. I did my due diligence. Turns out these places are mainly a scam, taking seniors hard-earned money for no real help. like you. Yes, when we are in pain, we will grasp at any stick floating by to help us... no matter how unlikely they are. Sorry that this charlatan managed to suck you into that scam. "If it sounds too good to be true, it likely isn't".

Run, don't walk... as fast as you can from this scam. Sure, there may be a couple of folks with mild pain that think they got better, but those of us in severe, chronic pain will not likely benefit from this. As you yourself mentioned, if this was so great, they would not have to advertise. People would be lined up at the doors. I'll wager that there is no guarantee of relief for your $12,000, right?

Glad we could help. It is so tempting, when you are in crippling pain, to reach out to any stick floating by that might be able to help us. Keep searching. Prayers for success.

Thank you. I’m not really in much pain but the numbness in both feet, with much more on the right foot, with minor tingling, is really concerning.

The pain isn’t that bad but it’s the numbness that concerns me most.

I also went to blend therapy at an eight chiropractic treatment centers. I believe the supplements are very good as far as chiropractic. I am now with another chiropractor who practices the Cox method which I believe is much more effective. It’s a shame you can’t get the blueprint supplements without going through a chiropractor, I guess everybody’s gotta make a buck. I am still taking the supplements following some of the protocols, but I truly believe exercise diet and a positive attitude are Beneficial, but don’t really slow down the progression. The only thing I really read that might help and I am using is a high dose of testosterone. Apparently it does help and repairing the. Mylin But it’s certainly not an even thing like a cure
