Neuropathy in Los Angeles, CA

What is it and how can it be healed?

Peripheral neuropathy is a degenerative nerve condition that is often overlooked or simply treated with drugs by the medical establishment. Most people suffering from peripheral neuropathy experience pain, burning, cramping, tingling or numbness mostly  in their feet, but sometimes in the hands. Common medical treatment consists of anti-epileptic prescription drugs like Gabapentin or Lyrica. Unfortunately, these medications only mask the pain temporarily and do not get at the root cause of the nerve damage.   They also are not effective if you are just numb. The drugs affect your brain and all nerves, not just the ones impacted by neuropathy. Which is why they are frequently not well tolerated.

There are numerous causes for neuropathy, but let’s list the 5 main categories.

1. Disease based with  diabetes at the top of that list. Most people and even practitioners don’t know that 50% of the prediabetic cases lead to Neuropathy. High Blood Pressure and Fatty Liver is the next most common.

2. Drug Induced: Top of that list is chemotherapy treatment. There are also 68 drugs that can cause Neuropathy. Go to the FORMS page on this website and download them to share with all your friends.

3. Spinal Compression Syndromes: Spinal cord compression, degenerated or herniated discs and especially if you have already had sciatica.

4. Nutritional deficiencies: Most common vitamin B12, Folate, Alpha Lipoic Acid.

5. Toxic Syndromes: Mercury and lead toxicity are very common. This category is particularly common if you are below 55 years old!

Our feet were meant to be bare! Because we walk on hard surfaces and in shoes, we lose the ability to plantar flex and grip the ground. That’s why elite athletes have trained barefoot in the sand for years to gain an edge on their competition. Most of us don’t know that we’re getting weaker since there’s often no pain initially.
