Patient Recommendation:
After suffering increasing pain and discomfort from peripheral neuropathy in my feet and lower legs I visited Dr Lilla Cooper earlier in the year for acupuncture. After several treatments and taking her advise to wear gel toe separators every day for a couple of hours I am extremely pleased that I am experiencing an 80/85% improvement in the condition!
