In this guide, our Lone Tree Wellness team in Lone Tree, CO, explains neuropathy, its symptoms, and how chiropractic care can help. Let's explore the world of neuropathy and how we can help you manage this condition effectively.

What Is Neuropathy and What Causes It?

Neuropathy is when the nerves or protective covering of the nerves become damaged. This condition may occur due to diabetes, autoimmune disorders, vitamin deficiencies, nerve injuries, and certain medications.

What Are the Symptoms?

When the nerves become damaged, it can cause several undesirable symptoms, including those below.

• Numbness and tingling
• Hand pain
• Foot pain
• Loss or change of sensation

These symptoms can vary depending on the severity of the condition and where the nerve damage has occurred. For example, someone’s foot pain might be described as chronic burning sensations, while hand pain might be more of a pins and needles sensation.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help

Neuropathy is often caused by nerve compression. Fortunately, chiropractic adjustments are effective in relieving it. This treatment helps restore alignment to the spine and relieves pressure on your nerves.

Spinal decompression is effective when the nerve compressed is in the back or neck. This method gently stretches the spinal column, addressing herniated discs and other nerve compression causes.

Therapeutic exercises are also beneficial, as they help stretch and strengthen the musculoskeletal system, enhancing healing and preventing further damage.
