Hello @banksnc49. I'm sorry you are dealing with neuropathy. Thank you @artscaping for inviting me to discuss MFR.

My experience with MFR started off great. I found a therapist who understood it and worked on me for one year. I was treating small fiber neuropathy. Certain techniques felt good and seemed to help, however I had so many areas of pain to cover and it was challenging to touch on them all, especially regarding insurance.

I ultimately ended MFR just prior to attended Mayo Clinic's Pain Rehab Center (PRC). It had no longer been working and seemed to be aggravating more than helping. This was because I had Central Sensitization Syndrome. Having this chronic pain syndrome meant that MFR was essentially mashing my nerves hence fueling my fire.

I do recommend trying MFR for neuropathy. Many members speak highly of its benefits. Good luck to you!

Was this treatment covered by your insurance?

Yes, I have Medicare with a supplement insurance which provided out of network coverage because I live in NY.
