Hi @bulgebattler -- I tried one of those small hand held massagers with heat made by Wahl on my feet and didn't get much benefit other than it warmed my feet a little. I don't think it did anything for the numbness and I don't have pain with my neuropathy. There is a new discussion you might find beneficial here:

Just read about MFR Therapy which one website suggested for many conditions. This worries me a little as it sounds like a wonder drug but as the network is through out our bodies it does make sense. I am hoping to find a local therapist who is familiar with it as I am experiencing sciatic pain and have a bulging disc diagnosed by an MRI. I do not have neuropathic pain but do have some loss of feeling in my feet but also in my thighs. The Dr. indicated the latter is from the discs. Appreciate this info
