Hi , thank you for your question. I hope others are able to chime in with their experiences. I searched the site, but wasn't able to come across any members detailing their experiences with red light therapy. In the meantime, while you wait for responses if you are interested in reading a bit more about neuropathy, here is some information we have on-site: https://type2diabetes.com/complications/neuropathy

what does Red Light Therapy have to do with diabetic neuropathy ? Never heard of this therapy until a couple of years ago. Interested.

Hi . There is some evidence that red light therapy might improve symptoms, but nothing conclusive. Here is a study from the National Institutes of Health that takes a good hard look at it: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9476114/. I hope this helps. How are you managing neuropathy now? Best wishes. - Lori (Team Member)

Hi there, hope you've been doing well. I just wanted to follow up with you. I shared your question with our community members on Facebook, if you're interested in reading their responses: https://www.facebook.com/Type2Diabetesdotcom/posts/2190951574387555. One person did mention that they tried red light, but it was quite costly. Best, Minel (Team Member)
