The Spine Correction Center Offers New Treatment for Neuropathy
Fort Collins, Colorado (PRWEB) October 10, 2013 -- The Spine Correction Center of the Rockies, a premier physical medicine center in the Fort Collins area, recently added an innovative technique for relieving neuropathy to its suite of services. The Neuropathy Center at Spine Correction Center of the Rockies, utilizes advanced methods to both increase blood flow and send vital nutrients to damaged nerves, relieving pain and increasing function in a sufferer’s feet and hands.
Neuropathy is a potentially debilitating condition experienced by more than 20 million people nationwide. Those who suffer from neuropathy report experiencing burning, tingling, and numbness in the hands and feet, gradually increasing in intensity over time. This condition can severely limit a person’s ability to work, enjoy activities with family, and carry out everyday tasks such as loading a dishwasher or completing yard work.
With this new treatment, The Neuropathy Center at Spine Correction Center of the Rockies is able to provide patients relief from symptoms and restore quality of life. While many patients may be prescribed medication, these treatment options can come with side effects and may even be addictive. Over time, patients develop a tolerance for medications, causing discomfort to return. Many patients report that the side effects associated with the medications often times are worse than the neuropathy condition itself.
The Neuropathy Center at Spine Correction Center of the Rockies uses a combination of cold laser, injections, and neurostimulators to get results where others have failed. These treatments work to resolve the cause of neuropathy, rather than simply treating the symptoms.
In addition to physical treatments, The Neuropathy Center at Spine Correction Center also recommends lifestyle changes that can alleviate symptoms. Through a healthy diet and correction of any autoimmune disease, the Spine Correction Center has been able to supplement physical care to see dramatic improvements in patients.
The Spine Correction Center’s treatments can also use neuromuscular re-education, as well as whole-body vibration, in order to retrain the brain to work around the nerve damage. Overall, this creates an improvement in coordination and an overall improvement in the body’s function.
Founded in 2007, the Spine Correction Center of the Rockies is a full-service physical medicine center that provides treatment for a wide variety of physical ailments. The center’s treatments run the gamut, including correcting herniated discs, chronic headaches, carpal tunnel, and much more. By combining medical professionals from a wide variety of specialties, the Spine Correction Center is able to provide the best care possible using integrative physical medicine.
