TENS and EMS Treatment for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy.

Context: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a common complication occurring in both type 1 and type 2 diabetics. DPN may result in foot ulceration or lower-limb amputation.

Objective: This case was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of ReBuilder® therapy in the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Methods: The case report is based on 3 selected patients, 2 males and 1 female. Each patient continued being managed by his/her primary care physician. No changes to allopathic medicine or diet were advised by our team. In addition to the allopathic therapy, we added ReBuilder® therapy, low level light therapy, vibration therapy and supplementation. The treatment period ranged from 17 to 20 weeks.

Conclusion: The data presented here show promise for future, larger, controlled studies on the use of ReBuilder® devices for the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy pain.
