Has anyone ever received cranio sacral manipulation for radiculopathy/neuropathy symptoms...I'm assuming this is the cause of my foot/ leg numbness and weakness since I have cervical and lumbar stenosis/herniation/impingement thecal sac, etc. and haven't been diagnosed with anything else.

If so, what was your experience/outcome. I know it's not a cure, but simply adjunct therapy. The woman I'm considering using is extremely expensive and no insurance coverage.

Thank you, Amy

@yengame7 Cranial sacral and myofascial release are 2 things my osteopath does for me…but I also have to do my homework, with stretches and carefully prescribed exercises… as for PT, I found benefit from strengthening the core (which was weakened after major abdominal surgery).. are these “cures’ ?—not exactly but, in addition to walking, they help manage pain…hoping for a cure is understandable, but being able to manage life from where I am now has been helpful so far.
