To My Patients Suffering From Peripheral Neuropathy

  • Most doctors recommend prescription drugs like Gabapentin, Lyrica, Cymbalta, and Neurontin
  • These drugs may temporarily reduce symptoms
  • They are primarily antidepressant and anti seizure medications
  • They often cause uncomfortable and harmful side effects
  • Peripheral neuropathy is caused by damage to the nerves
  • Often caused by lack of blood flow
  • Blood vessels surrounding nerves shrink
  • Nerves do not get proper nutrients
  • Nerves begin to degenerate
There is now a facility right here in West Haven offering hope without relying on endless drugs with serious side effects.

What Causes Peripheral Neuropathy And Why Is It Getting Worse?

  • Blood vessels that surround the nerves become diseased
  • They shrivel up
  • Nerves stop receiving proper nutrients
  • Nerves begin to die
  • This causes balance problems, pain, numbness, tingling, burning

Low level light therapy is like watering a plant. When blood flow improves, nutrients reach the nerves and healing can begin.

The amount of treatment needed varies from person to person and is determined after a detailed neurological and sensory evaluation.
