Neuropathy

Neuropathy is one of several types of injuries we treat at Northwest Wellness Center. Our patients come from Dublin, Hilliard, Worthington, and Upper Arlington, OH, to get help for this serious condition. Here's what to expect from your neuropathy treatment.

What Is Neuropathy?

Neuropathy occurs when you have damaged nerves that no longer send signals properly. It often results in extreme pain, numbness, and tingling sensations in the affected area. Neuropathy may be caused by injury or disease, such as diabetes, chemotherapy, or autoimmune disorders.

Common Symptoms of Neuropathy

Neuropathy may manifest in a variety of symptoms, including pain, burning sensations, numbness, and tingling. Other common signs include extreme sensitivity to touch or temperature changes. Many people also experience muscle weakness in the affected area. Others may suffer from digestive problems, such as nausea or vomiting.

How Chiropractic Care Helps Neuropathy

Our chiropractors are trained to assess your case and develop a plan that makes your pain more manageable. While chiropractic treatment will not completely cure neuropathy, a chiropractor can help improve your body's function and relieve pain. We do this by getting to the root of the problem and attacking the cause.

Treatment options for neuropathic pain include chiropractic adjustments, which help ensure your spine is properly aligned. Proper alignment helps your nervous system function properly. We may also recommend massage therapy, which can reduce inflammation and improve circulation. Heat and cold treatments and lifestyle changes are also commonly used to help manage neuropathic pain.
