My PCP suggested going to an acupuncturist for the neuropathy in my legs. I found an MD who was trained in China. He's very well regarded. I've been going twice a week for almost 4 months (30 sessions). Most of the sessions were not covered by insurance. Sad to report that it's done nothing for my neuropathy. If anything, it's worse than when I started. I had my last session a week ago. I'm going to start physical therapy in a couple of weeks. Also may try myofascial release massage therapy which has helped in the past. Haven't been able to get an appointment with a neurologist. The neuropathy was the result of back surgery a year ago. If anyone has had experience with myofascial release therapy helping with neuropathy please let me know.

@lesx Look up Scranbler Technique at Mayo Clinique… none invasive, drug-free, and not painful at all… also look up. calmaretherapynj. I did the therapy for my trigeminal nerve pain and it saved my life.
