Numbness, Tingling, and Burning? Chiropractic Relief for Peripheral Neuropathy

May 7, 2025 Content Manager Comments Off

Peripheral neuropathy—a condition that causes numbness, tingling, or burning in the extremities—affects millions of people, often disrupting sleep, mobility, and daily comfort. While medications may dull the symptoms, chiropractic care takes a proactive, non-invasive approach that focuses on restoring nerve function and reducing the root cause of pain.

A standout treatment in this category is Pulsed Radiofrequency Therapy (PRF). Unlike traditional radiofrequency that burns nerve endings, PRF uses short bursts of energy to gently modulate nerve activity. This calms irritated nerves without causing damage, offering safe, long-term relief for patients with diabetic neuropathy, injury-related nerve damage, or idiopathic symptoms.

Another effective solution is Class IV Laser Therapy, which penetrates deep into soft tissue to stimulate cellular repair and improve circulation. For patients experiencing nerve pain in the hands, feet, or legs, laser therapy can speed up recovery by promoting natural tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation around affected nerves.

Chiropractors also examine the spine and extremities for misalignments or postural issues that may be contributing to nerve compression. Using either manual adjustments or a gentle electric chiropractic adjusting instrument, they work to relieve mechanical stress on the nervous system. Even small spinal shifts can aggravate nearby nerves—correcting them improves function and reduces pain.

Treatment plans may also include customized therapeutic exercises. These are designed to strengthen supporting muscles, improve proprioception, and stimulate healthy nerve pathways. Restoring balance and stability is especially important for patients experiencing weakness or coordination issues as a result of neuropathy.

What sets chiropractic care apart is its holistic focus. Rather than masking discomfort with pills, it seeks to restore the body’s natural healing processes. Over time, many patients experience reduced pain, better sleep, increased mobility, and improved confidence in their day-to-day activities.

If left untreated, neuropathy can worsen and become more difficult to manage. That’s why early intervention with targeted chiropractic therapies can make a lasting difference. Let us help you today at NY Disc Chiropractic.
