Anyone tried shock wave therapy for peripheral neuropathy nerve pain?

Hi, I did shockwave and it helped heal my Peroneal tendonitis. Don’t know about the neuropathy. Not covered by Medicare/UHC. Wish these therapies that work, that have been used in Europe for over 20 years, were covered by insurance. I spent over $1000 in the course of once a week for two months.

God bless you for posting this. I have been dealing with peroneal tendinitis since October 2024. I have multiple tendon tears in both feet and I’ve had surgery on the right foot. This has been devastating as I am a dancer and enjoy walking and snorkeling. Add that to some neuropathy/fibromyalgia weirdness after having Covid and a bunch of vaccines, and what a nightmare. I finally have found a doctor from Johns Hopkins who recommended shockwave therapy for both of my feet and I start in two weeks. Any tips or things you think I should know about?

Thank you for sharing. I have not tried this yet. Would you do it again?
