I have peripheral neuropathy. I got it after chemo. I tried acupuncture for 6 months and did not see any difference. I was praying it would. I have not found anything that really helps. But we are all different . I have had it for over four and a half years. It seems to get worse all the time. I just have the numbness no pain. The only thing that seems to help is excerise. I go to the pool and the gym and take yoga. I hope this helps answer your question.
