What Is Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy is a dysfunction of the peripheral nervous system, the network of nerves outside the brain and spinal cord. It can result from diabetes, injury, poor circulation, post-chemotherapy effects, or even spinal misalignments that interfere with nerve function.

Common symptoms include:

  • Tingling or “pins and needles”
  • Numbness in the hands or feet
  • Burning or shooting pain
  • Muscle weakness
  • Balance problems
  • Cold or sensitive extremities

Without proper care, neuropathy can become progressive and debilitating. That’s why early, targeted treatment is essential.

The Chiropractic Approach to Neuropathy Relief

Unlike conventional approaches that focus solely on masking symptoms with medication, chiropractic care works to remove interference in the nervous system, allowing your body to function and heal more efficiently.

Our doctors use advanced diagnostics and a proven care model to address the structural causes of nerve dysfunction, particularly in the spine and lower extremities.

Our Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP) certification gives us a unique advantage in correcting spinal misalignments that may compress or irritate nerves. When combined with functional rehabilitation and nerve-stimulating therapies, this approach can lead to long-term improvement in nerve function.

What to Expect During Care

Your first visit includes a detailed consultation and exam to determine the extent and cause of your neuropathy. We may use:

  • Postural analysis and digital X-rays
  • Neurological and orthopedic testing
  • Nerve function assessments
  • Circulatory and metabolic evaluations

From there, we’ll create a customized care plan to restore proper nerve flow, reduce inflammation, and improve quality of life.

Treatment Options We May Use

Each plan is unique, but your neuropathy care at Freedom Family Chiropractic may include:

  • Gentle chiropractic adjustments to correct spinal misalignments
  • Postural correction therapies for improved nerve function
  • Laser therapy or nerve stimulation to promote cellular healing
  • Functional rehab exercises to restore balance and strength
  • Nutritional guidance to reduce inflammation and support nerve health
  • Lifestyle coaching to address blood sugar, circulation, and ergonomic triggers
