Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that occurs when the peripheral nerves - the nerves that carry information between the brain/spinal cord and the rest of the body - become damaged or dysfunctional. These nerves control muscle movement, as well as sensations like touch, temperature, and pain.

Here are some of the main causes of peripheral neuropathy:Diabetes: One of the most common causes is uncontrolled diabetes, which can lead to high blood sugar levels that damage nerves over time.

Trauma/Injury: Physical trauma or injuries that cause nerve compression, crushing or severing can lead to neuropathy. This includes repetitive motion injuries.

Autoimmune Diseases: Certain autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Guillain-Barré syndrome cause the body's immune system to attack and damage peripheral nerves.

Infections: Viral or bacterial infections like Lyme disease, shingles, HIV, and hepatitis C can trigger neuropathy.

Inherited Disorders: Some inherited conditions like Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease cause genetic defects that lead to nerve damage.

Toxin Exposure: Excessive alcohol consumption and exposure to industrial chemicals, toxins, and some medications can be toxic to nerve fibers.

Vitamin Deficiencies: Lack of certain vitamins like B1, B6, B12, E and niacin can disrupt nerve function and cause neuropathy over time.

So in summary, the causes range from metabolic problems and autoimmune conditions to physical injuries, vitamin deficits and toxic exposures that impair nerve signaling.

Yes, peripheral neuropathy can be reversed or significantly improved through holistic approaches, helping to stop further damage and restore nerve function.Treatments like shockwave therapy, combined with proper nutrition, physical therapy, and other natural methods, can stimulate nerve regeneration, reduce inflammation, and enhance blood flow to the affected areas.By addressing the underlying causes and supporting your body’s natural healing processes, holistic treatments can not only relieve the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy but also help prevent further nerve damage, leading to better long-term outcomes and improved quality of life.

Yes, nerves can regrow, although the process is slow and can vary depending on the type of nerve and the extent of the damage. Peripheral nerves, which are the nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord, have the ability to regenerate to some extent. While complete recovery may not always be possible, especially in severe cases, these treatments can help stimulate nerve regeneration, reduce symptoms, improve overall nerve function and reach significant improvement in one's quality of life.

When you undergo neuropathy treatment using holistic approaches, you can expect a natural, non-invasive path to relief and recovery. Our in house therapies work by stimulating blood flow and promoting nerve regeneration, which helps reduce pain, tingling, and numbness associated with neuropathy. Over time, you'll notice a significant reduction in symptoms, improved nerve function, and enhanced overall well-being.

Many patients experience positive results after just a few sessions, with ongoing improvements as treatment continues. This holistic approach not only addresses the symptoms but also supports your body’s natural healing processes, offering a safe and effective alternative to medications or surgery.
