What is Neuropathy?

Neuropathy refers to a range of conditions characterized by damage or dysfunction of the peripheral nerves. These peripheral nerves are the nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord. Neuropathy can lead to a variety of symptoms depending on which nerves are affected, including pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, or sensitivity, particularly in the hands and feet. 

Neuropathy can result from various causes such as diabetes, infections, injuries, or genetic disorders, and it can significantly impact a person’s quality of life. Treatment often focuses on managing the underlying cause, alleviating symptoms, and improving overall nerve function at Crosby Chiropractic & Acupuncture Centre.

What Does Neuropathy Treatment Look Like? 

There are several ways that a chiropractor can help with the treatment of neuropathy and here at Crosby Chiropractic & Acupuncture Centre we follow several forms of treatment to help our patients. 

Chiropractors can help with Neuropathy by approaching the issues through holistic means such as: 

• Spinal Adjustments: Chiropractors use spinal adjustments or manipulations to address misalignments in the spine, which may be contributing to nerve compression or irritation. By improving spinal alignment, they aim to reduce pressure on the nerves and enhance overall nerve dysfunction.
• Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation: Chiropractors often incorporate physical therapy techniques, including exercises and stretches, designed to improve strength, flexibility, and mobility. This can help alleviate symptoms related to neuropathy, such as muscle weakness or coordination issues.
• Postural Education: Improving posture and body mechanics can reduce strain on the nervous system. We may offer guidance on proper posture and ergonomics to help minimize nerve irritation and promote better overall health.
• Complementary Therapies: Additional therapies like acupuncture, soft tissue message, electrical stimulation, or cold laser therapy to reduce pain and inflammation associated with neuropathy may also be utilized.
• Lifestyle and Nutritional Advice: Chiropractors may provide recommendations on lifestyle changes and nutrition that support nerve health and overall well-being. This can be particularly beneficial if neuropathy is linked to conditions like diabetes, poor circulation, or poor malabsorption of critical nutrients.
• Stress Reduction Techniques: Since stress can exacerbate pain and neuropathy symptoms, chiropractors may offer strategies to manage stress, including relaxation techniques and mindfulness practices.

While chiropractic care can be beneficial for managing some aspects of neuropathy, it’s essential to work closely with a healthcare provider to ensure a comprehensive approach. We collaborate with other healthcare professionals to provide you with the most comprehensive care.
