I have drug induced neuropathy from chemotherapy. My doctor feels that acupuncture could help. Has anyone in my position tried acupuncture and what were the results. I do not have severe pain. Achiness and numbness in my hands and legs. What else could I consider.

As a Chiropractic Doctor for over thirty years I have recently began using therapeutic laser to treat a variaty of problems, including neuropathy with wonderful success. Try searching for K laser and talk to someone that is using this new technology.

years ago acupuncture did wonders for me.
recently all my health issues, along with a few new ones thrown in just for fun, have returned with a vengeance.
after the med. community gets through with their doings here in the next few weeks i plan on visiting an acupuncturist again to see if they can work their magic to relieve anything.
good luck!!

I have used the laser treatment. It worked wonders, except, my insurance would not pay for it and it got to expensive and I had to stop treatment. The relief I got from my "severe" pain for tremendous. I would totally recommend it for any one who can get it.
