Hi. Yes it has helped me tremendously. I’ve had 2 MFR sessions and within 2 days after 1st treatment, I had very little neuropathy and the pins and needles that go with it. I also compliment the therapy with a pose where you put your legs up against the wall. Your legs are vertical as you lay on the ground. With your legs elevated, the blood and lymph nodes will use gravity and will provide relief by not having too much fluid in your lower extremity of legs. Drain if you will.
It usually takes more than one session to get additional relief, but I highly recommend trying this therapy. Good luck !!
@peggyn If you go to page 2 in this discussion, Chris Trout @artscaping has a post about numbness and pain in her feet and getting feeling back from myofascial release and that she can feel her feet again to be able to drive. MFR can bring back circulation to dehydrated tissue and possibly help heal it. That might be different for different people. My experience is with physical causes of nerve pain, and I've had good results.
