Peripheral Neuropathy

Causes and Symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy can be caused by many different medical conditions, including diabetes, inflammatory infections, autoimmune diseases, protein abnormalities, and hereditary disorders. It can also be the result of poor nutrition, alcoholism, and taking certain medications. Symptoms can come on suddenly or build gradually over the years. They are typically felt in the hands or feet and may include:
- Burning sensations
- Freezing pain
- Feet and leg pain that makes sleeping difficult
- Loss of balance
- Muscle weakness
- Muscle cramping
- Numbness or tingling
Benefits of Acupuncture for Neuropathy
When performed by a Licensed Acupuncturist like Kristen Bohnet at Bohnet Acupuncture & Chiropractic, acupuncture stimulates the nervous system, increases blood flow, and awakens the body’s natural healing qualities. Benefits include regaining feeling and relief from pain in the areas affected by neuropathy. Many patients feel a noticeable difference with a series of treatments. Rather than covering up the symptoms with over-the-counter drugs or prescriptions, acupuncture is an all-natural treatment that is safe and effective.
