I was just diagnosed with Neuropathy a few weeks ago. I was wondering if anyone has tried acupuncture to ease the tingling/pain in the feet.

Yes! I've been getting 1-hr treatments every other week since last summer.
Medicare doesn't generally cover the cost though. If you haven't had acupuncture before please be patient. It doesn't cure you overnight and it doesn't work for everyone. Chinese medicine has been around for a long time. It works for me.
