My apology for late response. I’m not online much right now while recovering from ankle surgery. The “natural remedies” that work best for me is medical cannibus pain relief balm (100mg CBD)… I rub the balm all over my feet before bed and sometimes during the day. I use the balm occasionally on my shoulder for joint pain too, and it helps a lot. I have the med cannabis certification from my primary care doc, and buy the balm at a local dispensary in Illinois.
I also sometimes use “Seven Minerals Magnesium Oil Spray” on my feet and lower legs (avail on Amazon).
Soaking for a few minutes in a warm Epson Salt bath can be helpful for my feet too especially in cold weather.
Lastly, I regularly massage my feet and legs following a lymphatic drainage massage technique that I learned from a homeopathic therapist. There are free instructions available on YouTube as well. I firmly believe this helps because it keeps the swelling down in my feet which in turn helps with reducing the neuropathy pain.
I wish you the very best of luck with finding alternative ways to manage your peripheral neuropathy. If these methods don’t help you I encourage you to keep exploring other ways to reduce pain. Stopping the Gabapentin was the best thing I did for myself… my memory has greatly improved.
