Hello @sunnybuns1, Welcome to Connect. Thank you for sharing your experience and what you found has helped your neuropathy. @artscaping also has recommended the legs up the wall yoga. I do massage my feet daily at night and put lotion on them to keep the skin hydrated. I think it helps because peripheral nerves are near the skin and the healthier the skin the better chance for the nerves to heal. You might also find the following discussions helpful:

Can you share a little more about how your neuropathy was diagnosed?
