Neuro Therapy and Neuropathy

What is Neuropathy?

Neuropathy is characterized by decreased or improper neurological communication to the peripheral nerves.

The peripheral nerves are responsible for neurological communication throughout the body.  The brain uses them to communicate with the muscles to make them move and also to receive sensory information from the environment, like the sense of touch.  When these nerves are damaged, it can affect either (or both) functions of the peripheral nerves. 

If communication with the muscles is disrupted, you may find it more difficult to move and experience decreased coordination, decreased balance, muscle weakness, and/or stiffness.

If neuropathy affects the nerves responsible for the sense of touch, you may also start to experience numbness, tingling, and/or burning.

When the brain senses it has lost communication with the peripheral nerves, neuropathy often starts to become painful.

Why does it occur?
​
Neuropathy occurs for a number of reasons, but the primary reason is that the brain has a lost the ability to communicate with the nerves in the affected area. 

Whether it is because of a previous trauma to the area, head/neck injury, nutrition deficiency, or biochemical imbalance (like Diabetes Mellitus), the nervous system has a diminished ability to communicate effectively, resulting in the symptoms listed above.

In order for the problem to be addressed, the nerves need appropriate resources (oxygen, nutrients) to repair themselves and re-establish appropriate communication.

However, often times, the problem is compounded over time.  Because neuropathy causes people to use the symptomatic area less, the brain starts sending less resources that way. 

The nerves become inflamed, scar tissue can develop, and blood supply is restricted, meaning the nerves receive less oxygen and nutrients to repair themselves.  Additionally, muscles in the area become weaker, so the nerve becomes likely to become even more damaged.

How can Neuro Therapy be a part of the solution?

Neuro Therapy was designed to re-establish proper neurological communication throughout the body.  When proper communication is established, the brain can start to communicate with the damaged nerves appropriately again and symptoms may start to decrease.

Through its unique, targeted approach, Neuro Therapy also helps to bring needed resources (blood flow, nutrients, oxygen, etc). back to the affected area, so the nerves can begin to repair themselves.

During the process, clients also work to re-educate the nervous system and muscles around the affected area to work properly, to improve movement patterns, increase range of motion, and limit the chances of future damage to the nerve.  

If you or a friend are experiencing symptoms consistent with Neuropathy, it's possible Neuro Therapy can help.

We've designed a 3 step assessment process to determine whether or not Neuro Therapy can help relieve your Neuropathy symptoms... and for a limited time, it's 100% free.
