Neuropathy: How a Chiropractic Neurologist Can Help

If you suffer from diabetes, there's a good chance that you deal with peripheral neuropathy. At Powell Chiropractic Center in Powell/Knoxville, we're here to help you control your symptoms using natural, holistic chiropractic care.

What Is Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy affects up to 60 percent of diabetics. This condition affects your nerves and may cause a tickling, tingling, or pins and needles feeling in your arms and legs. The condition can affect many facets of life, especially because it often interferes with sleep. The condition gets worse with age. Left untreated, it can lead to a loss of balance, muscle weakness, and the need for a walking aid, such as a cane or walker.

Chiropractic Care for Neuropathy

At Powell Chiropractic Center, our Chiropractic Neurologist specializes in treating diseases and conditions that affect the central nervous system. We understand how the brain and spine relay messages to the body. This allows us to help activate your body's natural healing systems to promote the ease of symptoms associated with various neurological conditions. When you come in for your first appointment, we'll talk with you about your symptoms and explain whether chiropractic care might be a good fit for you. If both you and our chiropractor decide to move forward with treatment, we'll create a unique treatment plan to meet your needs. Many of our patients with peripheral neuropathy benefit from a combination of therapies. These may include chiropractic adjustment, physical therapy, and other forms of treatment such as our laser or Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field Machine. We may also use our Frequency Microcurrent machine to help with Trigeminal neuralgia. We'll check in with you at each appointment to see whether your symptoms are improving, and we'll adjust your treatment plan as necessary.
