Neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, peripheral neuropathy and so on present clinicians with a tremendous challenge. These conditions are routinely treated with acupuncture in China and positive results can certainly be seen. There is a paucity of Western research in this area, though the link below will take you to some interesting research summaries:

Whilst there are only three studies on this page, they all have positive results in favour of acupuncture. Whilst acupuncture can't cure these conditions I think it can provide useful help in their management, alongside other treatments.
