I don't see how, either. None of my symptoms would be able to be helped by a chiropractor. I have small fiber, large fiber, and limited autonomic.
But, this is what Melody said in one of her posts: "So that's why Alan (and his chiro-neurologist) always thought that his PN (only between certain toes) was caused by SOMETHING RELATED TO HIS BACK."
So, if the cause is a problem with the spine, treating the spine and realigning it (if that is the problem) may help the PN.
I'm not Melody or Alan so I don't know for sure.. but that's the only thing that makes sense to me. But that's not the cause most people have, so I don't see any benefit.

My name is Sarah and I am 25 years old. I have a lot of chronic health problems. Peripheral neuropathy and POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) keep me bedridden the majority of the time. I also struggle with degenerative disc disease, disc desiccation, spondylolisthesis, arthritis, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) with insulin resistance, allergies, sound sensitivities, and other health problems.
