Neuropathy
Neuropathy is a peripheral nerve disorder which can cause discomfort, tingling and pain in your hands, legs and feet. The peripheral nervous system connects the brain and spinal cord to the muscles, skin and internal organs, and damage to the perhipheral nerves has a number of negative effects including:
• Sharp pain (and pain when you walk)
• Prevention of muscle movement
• Lack of sensation in the arms and legs (making walking very uncomfortable!)
• Loss of balance and coordination
• Tingling, prickling or burning sensations
• Digestion problems
There are a number of different causes of neuropathy, from carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive injuries to Guillain-Barre syndrome (sudden paralysis).
Damage to just one peripheral nerve is called mononeuropathy, and it can be caused by a traumatic experience such as a car accident or prolonged pressure on a nerve due to continuous repetitive motions. In fact, carpal tunnel syndrome is a common type of mononeuropathy.
Neuropathy Treatment
In addition to the emotional stress (and sometimes depression) it can lead to, neuropathy can affect all aspects of your life (even sleeping!) so it’s important to get it treated right away - you shouldn’t have to live with the pain! If you’re hesitant about surgery, don’t be discouraged. Surgery isn’t the only neuropathy treatment available, and at Advanced Spine & Wellness, we offer plenty of alternatives! In fact, neuropathy is one of the most common nerve disorders treated by chiropractors.
From chiropractic to acupuncture to rehabilitation, Advanced Spine & Wellness offers natural neuropathy treatment – no surgery, no drugs. We have seen many people leave our office pain-free and 100% satisfied.
