Robbin — pain was interfering with my work
It was so hard to keep teaching. There was this constant numbness and pain in my feet. The doctors called it diabetic neuropathy. It was tremendously annoying and frustrating — kept me from being the best teacher to my students and being myself with my family. I'd try to go for a run and couldn't do it anymore. After the Realief™ Neuropathy Therapy that terrible feeling that I had in my legs is gone. I'm back to long walks and, hopefully, will be back to running soon. I'm able to concentrate when I'm teaching and can do things with my husband again without hurting all the time.
John — surgery didn't help
Three years ago, they told me I had degeneration in my feet — bone spurs and bunions, that I needed surgery. It didn't help the pain at all. I still couldn't sleep from all the pain in my feet at night. I was taking more and more Neurontin during the night. After the Realief™ Neuropathy Therapy, my Neurontin is down from 900 mg a night to about 200 mg. And, if I'm honest, I think I may not really need it at all. Thank God! I thought I'd just have to live with this. But finally, my feet don't hurt. I went from a cynic about this treatment to a walking testimonial.
Debra — diabetes patient
Managing my diabetes has always been important to me, but it continues to give me problems. In the past few years I began to have itchy, hot feet. The doctors said it was symptoms from peripheral neuropathy. I tried other treatments, but nothing was working. Then I found out about Realief™ Therapy. Now I get around a lot better without relying on a walker or cane all the time. And for the first time in years, I can actually move around the house, climb stairs and get more of my chores done. I don't even have to pack my legs in ice packs like did before. The terrible itch is gone. I sleep in my own bed again — all night long. My husband is really happy. We think there's definitely been a big improvement with Realief™ Neuropathy Therapy.
Rubin — war injury
I hurt my feet pretty bad in the first Iraq war. I crushed some bones and it took a long time to get up and moving again. But I was still experiencing some sort of nerve damage — a severe tingling, then burning sensation. It began to move up from my feet to my legs. My doctor asked how bad it was on a scale of 1 to 10. I told her it was 7 and it was getting worse. My first visit to the Realief™ Neuropathy Treatment Center was in a wheelchair. After some treatments I progressed to crutches, then just a cane. Now most of my tingling and burning has stopped, all the way down to my toes. The other plus is no more narcotics to cover my pain.
Nancy — balancing was difficult
I had real difficulty with balance. All I felt was this numbness and discomfort in my feet and toes, some in my hands too. It was tough to stand still and talk to someone or do the shopping. I would change shoes four or five times a day to try to get some sort of relief. The tips of my toes and the balls of my feet were really numb and parts of my legs were turning this purple color. But every trip to the Realief™ Neuropathy Treatment Center brought me something new. A new feeling. Feelings I hadn't felt for a long time. My goal was to be able to stand and walk barefoot again. I've reached that goal.
Gerald — had numbness for 25 years
I've had this progressive numbness in both my legs for 25 years. I spent two days at a major medical center and they said I had peripheral neuropathy and nothing could be done. Then I met this gentleman who told me about the help he'd gotten at the Realief™ Neuropathy Treatment Center. He couldn't believe the difference that it made. I put off my first visit because it was a long drive in the winter and I'm 82 years old. It's been sort of miraculous. I've put up with cold, numb feet and legs for so long, and now being able to feel hot water in the bathtub. It's such a joyful sensation. Being able to stand on one leg while I pull my pants on. Walking my dog and not being afraid of falling is so nice.
