Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment

What is Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral Neuropathy is a term used to describe “burning pain” in the hands or feet.

What causes it?

There are lots of causes of peripheral neuropathy but there are two we see a lot of. These are diabetes and alcoholism.  Peripheral neuropathy can also be the side effect of medication.

The pain is actually inflammation of the nerve. Think of inflammation as “fire”.  That’s what it feels like.

What Treatments are available?

Acupuncture is great for peripheral neuropathy treatment because there are specific points to help “put out fire”.  These are known as the “water” points and “fire” points.

You can “fight fire with fire” and also put it out with water.  Using all of these will help the pain of peripheral neuropathy.

There are also some points on the feet and face for the release of endorphins, the body’s own natural pain killer.

Does it work?

It does work and Dr. Ebeling will even teach you the points to treat on yourself at home.

Dr. Robert Ebeling is a Chiropractor and also does acupuncture treatments at A-Just-A-Ble Chiropractic Center in Englewood, Colorado (303) 377-1755.  He has been doing acupuncture treatments since 2001.
