Hello Don @dwb111060 -- Welcome to Connect. I have idiopathic small fiber peripheral neuropathy and have not tried the Rebuilder product but I have tried a Zopec DT 1200 which also purported to help neuropathy but after about 6 weeks of using is 30 minutes twice a day I found no real help. I can say that maybe one or two days my feet felt a little better but that could have been something other than the device. I only have the numbness with my PN so others may have different experiences. I can tell you there a lot of people with neuropathy and a lot of companies selling stuff that may or may not help you so you have to do your own research. Here is an article I found about the device from 2008 on the ScienceBasedMedicine.org website.
