Neuropathy of the feet: Any advice on how to eliminate the numbness?

I was told by older persons who dealt with numb feet to simply get some plastic buckets from Home Depot and fill them with hot water and Epsom salt and safely stand in the buckets.

Stand?
It takes at least 1 cup of Epsom salts and 20min. for the analgesic effect.
Go to Amazon.com and get leg elevation/wedge pillow
$ 33.99
I've been using one on my easy chair for twenty years,
and it is the most effective tool to support circulation,
and reduce swelling and nerve pain.
A small mini cooler works for both ice water or warm
Epsom salt soaks. Diane

As being a diabetic which is causing my neuropathy my docs say never soak your feet. Soaking will soften the skin and because of numbness it's easier to injure them without feeling it.
