Default Anyone Try Acupuncture For Legs/Feet That Hurt In Bed

Has anyone tried acupuncture for legs and feet that hurt after you go to sleep and wake you up? Thank goodness I don't have this, but asking for someone else.

I have an acupressure mat that I use for my arthritic back pain and it seems to help. In the instructions, it says you can use it for feet too.
I don't know if it would work, but it's a cheap option ($60 or so I paid for the mat and pillow) and convenient. Good luck with whatever you choose to do.

Dr. Cheshire and Dr. Forsythe in lake Sumter landing at Mulberry Integrative Medicine both offer free consultations for Acupuncture. Been going to them for years. They each have different specialties. 352-430-2720

Depends on the cause. If it is restless leg syndrome (RLS) a weighted blanket can help - not a sure thing, but it works for me.

Not sure exactly what your diagnosis has been. Look into PEMF treatments (google it). It's not snake oil and TVH system has units and you don't have to be a patient with them. I do know that Mulberry, Creekside, Pinnellas and possibly Colony have units. Give them a call! I went to one of their seminars this past Spring and tried it for a month to see if it would work for my issues and it did. Their units sell for over 6K and a friend told me about a portable unit that's called OSKA Wellness. I looked into it and ended up ordering one from the company. I've been using mine all summer and it does work for pain and more. Hope you can find relief because I know all too well what chronic pain can be like.
