How We Help Patients With Neuropathy
At Michigan Chiropractic and Neuropathy Center, we take a comprehensive, three-step approach to help you find lasting relief from neuropathy. The treatment targets the root causes of nerve pain by addressing three critical areas: circulation, nerve function, and metabolic health. First, we work to improve blood flow, ensuring your nerves receive the oxygen and nutrients they need to heal. Next, we focus on restoring proper nerve communication and reducing inflammation to enhance function and comfort. Finally, we support your body’s metabolic balance—helping regulate blood sugar and other underlying factors that can damage nerves. This three-dimensional approach gives your body the best opportunity to repair, regenerate, and recover naturally.
What Is Neuropathy And Can It Heal?
Neuropathy is a complex condition characterized by progressive damage to the peripheral nerves, causing a wide variety of symptoms. It manifests as tingling, numbness, weakness, pain, loss of balance, restless legs and loss of sensation typically affecting your hands and feet.
Nerve function and symptoms can improve! Despite peripheral neuropathy being incurable, treatment is effective to reverse the effects of the damaged nerves. Scientific literature consistently affirms the potential for peripheral nerves to regenerate. However, the crucial aspect lies not only in initiating the healing process, but also addressing the root cause of nerve damage. Identifying the underlying factors contributing to neuropathy and providing appropriate support are necessary for optimizing nerve recovery.
Prevalence
Neuropathy is a prevalent condition in the United States and around the world, affecting approximately 20 million Americans and 8% of the elderly population. Peripheral neuropathy costs billions of dollars annually in lost wages, healthcare costs and medications.
Diagnosis
The diagnosis of neuropathy begins with a thorough medical history, physical examination, 16 point sensory exam, metabolic assessment, circulatory assessment and sometimes an electromyography (EMG).
Treatment
We harness technology, nutrition and exercise to stimulate the nerves to regenerate, not cover up the symptoms and allow the condition to get worse. Traditional medicine focuses on managing symptoms of neuropathy through medication, maintaining healthy blood sugar, physical therapy and in some cases surgical intervention.
Our treatment approach targets three primary objectives:
Enhancing the body’s internal environment to promote nerve healing through anti-inflammatory diet and nutritional supplements.
1.
Improving blood circulation to the nerves.
2.
Activating damaged nerves, including small fiber, large diameter, or motor nerves, to alleviate pain and enhance balance.
3.
How it works:
The equipment is portable, making it easy to travel with. Also included is a handbook for guidance, that lays out your daily plan for compliance.
