I have tried it. It did not work for me. I have severe neuropathy pain in my feet, legs, hands, and arms that was caused by a failed cervical steroid injection. I tried it because a physical therapist claimed it worked for his other patients.
SCAM - SCAM - SCAM ALERT! There are entire industries devoted to taking advantage of desperate, medically challenged people. PLEASE, talk to your Dr., a person with a legit medical background when it comes to any therapy or med for Neuropathy. These blood suckers will say and do anything to get your $.
I agree with Rubyslippers. Its a tens unit that sells for$1400.00 there is nothing special about it except the price. I was referred to purchase one and I tried it for a month with no results.
My husband tried the circulation promoter, and not the rebuilder. I’m sorry I was not clear in what I wrote. As mentioned before, the rebuilder is just another TENS machine at an outrageous price. All the best to you!
I first used it in with a physical therapist for a few weeks. Then I bought it (for $1000) and used it for a few months. It did seem to help at first, but then I didn't get any improvement. I think it feels better just because you are putting your feet in water. I do that all the time now to get some relief before I go to bed.
I have used rebuilder for about a year now and I am happy with the results. I use it at the end of the day for 1/2 hr and it calms down the burning and tingling. I do not think it is a cure but by using this my feet have not gotten worse and better yet I can sleep without discomfort.
Hello @richardfrancine, Welcome to Connect, an online community where patients and caregivers share their experiences, find support and exchange information with others. I used a Zopec DT-1200 tens unit years ago with not much success or help. I have no experience with the Rebuilder but I'm really skeptical of all the claims. It seems similar to what a lot of the neuropathy clinics offer for treatments that have you continually coming back for the next treatment. Hoping others can share their experience.
Hi
It is a device that I saw advertised by a « Dr Phillips » , claiming that it will regenerate nerves - rather far-fetched - but my husband nevertheless spoke to his nephrologist about it. This doctor told him that THE REBUILDER was only another TENS machine, and at an outrageous price. Please don’t fall for this scam. It will not regenerate nerves.

How long did you use it for? Did you get treatment in a clinic or use at home?
My Dr did recommend it
Some people take longer to see results. You should not give up so fast
It actually not a tens machine. Works very differently. Read the website
