Have you used Max Health treatment plan for Neuropathy?
I am in my first week of treatment for nerve loss in my feet. It consists of Rebuilder, using infrared light therapy on feet and leg, I Anodyne, using electrical stimulation on feet to stimulate blood supply, and VasoPro snd Greensberry Supplements to provide Nitric Oxide Support, and InflammX. In addition, my plan has twice weekly chiropractor visits of balance therapy, spinal decompression therapy, and adjustments. Rebuilder and Anodyne are 30 minutes each twice daily at home. Supplements snd InflammX are twice daily. They provide recommended foods to eat and avoid, along with recipes. The program uses an App that sends email reminders of you daily plan and follow up emails with check boxes that you actually performed each task. Check-in for office visits is a spinal scan and your response to progress assessment. Because it is demanding, they do not accept everyone into the program. Your motivation to succeed is the determining factor. It is not cheap. You own the Rebuild and Anodyne equipment. My insurance paid about one-third.
I think it will work for me. It will take time as I have a little over fifty percent nerve loss in both feet. I had burning, stinging, heaviness, and some stabbing pains in my feet and was wearing compression hose. The neuropathy came on quickly in the past six to twelve months and was affecting my balance. I also have carpal tunnel in both wrist and wearing wrist braces for 6 weeks.
Though I haven’t tried it yet due to wrist braces, I can use the Anodyne on my hands and other areas like a TINS unit.
The Chiropractor, who is Neuropathy Certified, stated he is one of of about fifty offices in the country using this program. His office is MAX Health in Huntsville, AL.
I sure hope this info helps someone!!! At least I have hope.

Has anyone tried a tins unit?
I have a TENS unit that I bought on Amazon for less than $40 to use primarily on my back. Sometimes I would put it on my feet and run the cords down my pants leg and have the unit on while I was walking. It seemed to help divert some of the pain. But since my back surgery, I have used the unit occasionally on the bottoms of my feet for the neuropathy numbness and tingling. It feels good while it's attached and working, but I can't say that it has any lasting effect after I remove it. But for those who have pain along with the numbness, it might help block the pain a bit while it is running. It's certainly worth a try. There are many different units available, and this inexpensive one seems to work as well as the on my PT used on my back at times, so IMO it's worth a try!!
@smueller19 Thank you for sharing about the Max Health protocol you are using. A couple of questions: When you see the chiropractor, does he work primarily on your feet? And if there is a brand and model number on your anodyne equipment, could you please share that? There are SO MANY different things available through Amazon and no way to know if any of them are really that helpful. Clinic-grade equipment would probably be better. I'm glad you have hope!! I wish you continued healing! Mike
