Piedmont Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, P.A. Partners with Realief® Neuropathy Centers to Offer Peripheral Neuropathy Laser Treatment
Greenville, SC (PRWEB) July 28, 2015 -- Dr. Robert G. Schwartz, principal of Greenville, SC-based Piedmont Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, P.A., announced that his practice has teamed up with Realief Neuropathy Centers in order to offer his patients a new system of care utilizing laser therapy that has been shown to reverse the signs and symptoms of peripheral neuropathy.
Peripheral neuropathy is a disease caused by damage to the peripheral nerves, and typically triggers a variety of symptoms including tightness, hot or cold sensations, weakness or heaviness, restless leg, and other unpleasant and painful feelings that those afflicted often describe as burning, tingling or stabbing.
The Realief System of care that Dr. Schwartz is now offering patients as a result of the new partnership with Realief Neuropathy involves the use of an FDA 510(k)-cleared Class IV therapeutic laser that is safe, comfortable, non-invasive, and drug free. When properly dosed and correlated to changes in vibratory sensation, pin prick and light touch, controlled trials have shown impressive, lasting reduction in both the signs and symptoms of peripheral neuropathy; results that Dr. Schwartz has already seen with his own patients.
“It has been extremely rewarding to see people get peripheral neuropathy symptom relief through this new form of laser treatment, and in many cases to see the physical signs of disease actually reverse -- which is simply something we don’t see, and frankly don’t expect to see, in medicine. And just as notably, we’ve seen that the improvements generated through Realief therapy can be maintained after the initial phase of care,” commented Dr. Schwartz. He also went on to discuss the creation of a new outpatient restorative therapy peripheral neuropathy program at Bons Secours Hospital in Greenville, SC. Dr. Schwartz is the hospital’s Medical Director of Outpatient Physical Medicine Services.
