Posted by applesforall5370 @applesforall5370, Feb 9, 2024

I have diabetes and worked on my poor feet for 45yrs. I have neuropathy in my arms but to my foot getting worse. Several physical many years, but has come back again and again. They therapy called Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimullation (TENS).
I bought Nooro for my feet. It is a pad that you can use yourself.
They are now out on the market. Be careful were you buy it ask you physician or a physical therapist. 😉

I’ve have idiopathic peripheral neuropathy and have been using a foot TENS unit for over 3 months with ZERO relief or improvement…on my way to 100 daily treatments to a final assessment.

So far, I can report that it works…as well as a crystal, a pyramid shaped thingy and a young woman’s spit.

In other words, I am getting to believe that this thing is worth just that: spit.
I haven’t read posts from anyone who swears by TENS units but I invite anyone to respond to this conclusion but ask yourself why companies would spend money for R&D, distribution and warehousing if they hadn’t discovered the Golden Goose. Neuropathy, or treatment for it, regenerated SO slowly if at all. So slowly, in fact, that you cannot prove in court that it’s not working! It’s a verrrrry gradual rate of development AND resolution. And “Who knows?” is not a good thing to say in court while arguing a point.
