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

Hi Jake, There is at least some evidence for hyperbaric oxygen treatment for neuropathy pain. Not sure how many members have tried it so maybe some will share their experience with you.
