How much treatment do I need?

For Peripheral Neuropathy (Diabetes or other causes) the initial treatment protocol is 12 x 30 minute treatments within a maximum of four weeks.  That is, at least three treatments per week for 4 weeks.  Then two to three treatments per week ongoing when the causal condition is not resolved (i.e. Diabetes).


Can I use Anodyne for longer than 30 minutes?
