I tried a foot massager that went up to my ankles. It didn't do anything for my neuropathy and actually caused a lot of after use pain later that evening.
I also tried HVAC a device that stretched my back, it didn't work and was very expensive.
I also tried leaches for 6 months, 3 times a week. that didn't work either.
And, then there was HealthLight, also expensive, no luck.
Yoga seems to help. I just do what I can. I walk and stretch off and on all day.

Thank you Judith, you’re pretty much verified that a lot of these treatments are fraudulent. There’s a chiropractor‘s office here in MODESTO, who is at advertising neuropathy treatment using the hyperbaric chamber. It’s my understanding that neuropathy loves oxygen, and the hyperbaric chamber is loaded with oxygen. I haven’t checked into it to see exactly how it improves it if it does, which I highly doubt.
I appreciate all the information you have offered us.
Judith,
i’m curious if you asked your doctor about any of the treatments you’ve tried and if they recommended any?
Years ago I had all the horrible pains in the sensations but currently I only have neuropathy and I can live with that. I have numbness from the bottoms of my feet, up to just past my waist, it has caused urinary, bowel. and sexual problems.
It is also contributing to my balance problems according to my Neuro.
Take care,
Jake
