Non-Medication Treatment for Neuropathy and Chronic Nerve Discomfort

heel painPeripheral neuropathy is a debilitating condition where nerves are damaged, leading to weakness, burning pain, numbness, tingling, and significant balance problems. The causes vary and can include poor blood flow, high blood sugar levels (diabetes), chronic infections, pesticide exposure, and genetic factors. Each patient’s cause must be identified to effectively treat and heal the nerves.

What is Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy affects the nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord, often in the hands and feet. Common symptoms include:

  • Numbness/Tingling
  • Burning Pain
  • Unusual and/or Loss of Sensations
  • Muscle Weakness
  • Deep Stabbing Pain
  • Balance Problems

Another significant cause of nerve damage is auto-immune diseases, where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body, including the nerves. Thorough testing is crucial to identify the cause and treat peripheral neuropathy effectively.

Can Peripheral Nerves Heal?

Yes, peripheral nerves can heal. Scientific literature supports this, but the key is identifying and addressing the underlying cause of the damage.

Healing requires:

  1. Identifying the underlying cause of nerve damage.
  2. Assessing the severity of the nerve damage.
  3. Determining the types of nerve fibers damaged.
  4. Establishing the extent of treatment needed for recovery.
Our treatment focuses on four main goals:

  1. Optimizing the body’s environment for nerve healing.
  2. Increasing blood flow to the nerves.
  3. Stimulating damaged nerves to reduce pain and improve balance.
  4. Decreasing brain-based pain.

Our exclusive treatment system naturally rejuvenates nerves by increasing blood flow, with many patients experiencing significant improvements without surgery or addictive medications.

Our Comprehensive Treatment Program

We offer a proprietary treatment program utilizing up to eight state-of-the-art technologies, providing a non-invasive and non-surgical therapy protocol that combines cutting-edge medical treatments to address neuropathy.

Vital Components of Our Neuropathy Protocol

We use Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) to increase blood flow and repair nerves. This therapy promotes the growth of new blood vessels around peripheral nerves, providing essential nutrients for healing. With 21 peer-reviewed studies and a 97% success rate, LLLT is a cornerstone of our treatment.

Our digital electro therapeutic stimulation, known as Nerve Re-Education, helps regrow nerves and can be administered at home for daily therapy. It provides immediate pain relief and restores normal sensation.

Proper nutrition is vital for optimal tissue and nerve repair. Our Advanced Nutritional Therapies accelerate healing by influencing inflammation, blood flow, and bioavailable nitric oxide.

Alongside home therapies, patients visit our clinic once a week for in-clinic protocols. Each component is crucial for achieving the best results.

Nerve cells need two things to heal: fuel and activation. The combination of high-powered low-level light therapy and nutrition (fuel) with Nerve Re-Education (activation) forms an effective approach for nerve regeneration. The amount of treatment varies per person and is determined after a detailed neurological and vascular evaluation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Neuropathy, and What Causes It?

Neuropathy refers to damage or dysfunction of the peripheral nerves (nerves of your hands and feet), leading to symptoms like pain, tingling, numbness, weakness or balance problems. There are over 141 known causes of neuropathy, but the most common causes include: diabetes, chemo therapy, autoimmune conditions, infections, injuries, and even certain medications.
