Hi Mitch, A few things to tell you about with this nasty foot neuropathy. This is kind of an update on things I have learned over time. First, I do not think the PEA helps. At least not me. I took it diligently for two months, and the pain really did not get better. As far as foot exercises, I am really not sure if they help or not. Probably not. Perhaps a little. I basically went up on my heels and down again, about fifteen times, three times a day. I also went up on my toes and back to my heels, about ten times, three times a day. The thing that has helped most, and I am currently finishing doing it is Calmare/Scrambler Therapy. I am going to post to everyone about it, because it is the only thing of significance that has helped my pain. Look it up on You tube, and Google it, as there is plenty of info out there about it, and I will be posting on the neuropathy group in the next few days. Also, I have a CBD salve for the feet that I swear by, and CBD drops that are very good. Let me know if you want more info about them. Good luck. I have/had severe neuropathy. Excruciating. Now it is better since the Scrambler therapy. Lori
