Non-Medication Treatment for Neuropathy & Nerve Pain Is Available in Carmel, IN

Peripheral neuropathy is a condition where nerves are damaged causing weakness, burning pain, numbness, tingling, and debilitating balance problems. The damage to the nerves can be caused by many different problems in the body. Poor blood flow to the nerves, toxic levels of sugar in the blood (diabetes), chronic infections, pesticide exposure, and genetic variants are a few of the causes of this debilitating condition. The cause is different for every patient and it must be discovered to help the nerves heal!
  • Numbness/Tingling
  • Burning Pain
  • Unusual and/or Loss of Sensations
  • Muscle Weakness
  • Deep Stabbing Pain
  • Balance Problems

Another Common Cause of Nerve Damage Is Auto-Immunity

Auto-immune diseases are diseases where the immune system mistakenly starts to attack the body. That’s right! Many times the immune system is actually killing the nerves of peripheral neuropathy sufferers. This is why thorough testing is vitally important to helping peripheral neuropathy.

Can Peripheral Nerves Heal?

Yes! It is well-established in scientific literature that peripheral nerves can and do heal. The key issue is that not only do we need to get the nerves healing, but we also have to identify the root cause of the nerve damage in the first place. When the underlying cause is discovered, coupled with proper support for the nerves, the nerves’ ability to heal is optimized!

In Order to Effectively Heal Nerve Damage, Three Factors Must Be Determined:

  1. What is the underlying cause of the nerve damage?
  1. How severe is the nerve damage?
  1. What types of nerve fibers are damaged?
You have sensory nerves (both small fiber nerves and large diameter nerves) and motor nerves (that control movement of your muscles) NOTE: If there is muscle weakness from neuropathy for greater than two years the damage to the muscles will probably be permanent!
How much treatment will the nerves require to heal?
This will be dependent on the degree of nerve damage and what types of fibers are damaged.

The Treatment We Provide Has Four Main Goals…

  1. Optimize the environment within the body for nerve healing
  1. Increase blood flow to the nerves
  1. Stimulate the nerves that are damaged (small fiber, large diameter, or motor nerves) to reduce pain and improve balance
  1. Decrease brain-based pain

Our exclusive neuropathy treatment systems increase blood flow to the nerves in the feet and/or hands, which helps to rejuvenate nerves naturally and has returned many of our patient’s feet and/or hands to normal (see testimonials below). No surgery. No addictive medications.

Our proprietary and comprehensive treatment programs utilize up to 8 different state-of-the-art technologies and are unlike any treatment program you may have already experienced.

We Provide a Safe and Effective, New Choice for Neuropathy Sufferers

Our clinic offers a NEW, Non-Invasive and Non-Surgical therapy protocol that combines the best of cutting-edge medical treatments to help resolve your neuropathy suffering. We want to make sure that you have the confidence that you need, so we’ve designed an extensive diagnostic evaluation process to help us find out if you’re a candidate for our Indy neuropathy program.

This extensive neuropathy and nerve pain evaluation will give you ALL the information that you need to know before starting treatment so you can be assured if you will have success with your neuropathic pain program.

There Are 4 Vital Components to Our Neuropathy Protocol

  1. Electromagnetic Infrared Therapy
This is NOT red light therapy. One of the treatment technologies we use in our Indianapolis Neuropathy clinic is designed to increase blood flow and repair the nerve is our new Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT). This must be conducted at 890nm. The light therapy signals Vasoendothelial Growth (VEGF), which signals the production of angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is the creation of new blood vessels, which are needed to repair nerve damage. These blood vessels grow back around the peripheral nerves and provide them with the proper nutrients to heal and repair. This technology has 21 peer-reviewed studies with a 97% success rate with peripheral neuropathy.
  1. Electrostimulation
We use state-of-the-art digital electro-therapeutic stimulation to assist in the growth of the nerves called Nerve Re-Education. This is used by the Cancer Centers of America in order to help those going through Chemotherapy rebuild the nerves. Nerve Re-Education can even be done at home, so therapy can be done daily! The results can be immediate in both pain relief and restoration of normal sensation.
  1. Advanced Nutrition Therapy

Proper nutrition in support of our other Vital Components is vital for optimal tissue and nerve repair. Our Advanced Nutritional Therapies have been designed to accelerate the healing process by affecting the complex processes of inflammation, blood flow, and bioavailable nitric oxide.

  1. In-Clinic Visits Online Education

Our neuropathy physicians provide in-clinic treatments for nerve pain and other related peripheral neuropathy symptoms in synergy with your home infrared electromagnetic electrostimulation therapy (for those that qualify). The Carmel, IN neuropathy clinic treatments may include the following:

  • SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology
  • Class IV Laser Therapy
  • BEMER Pulsed Electromagnetic Frequency (PEMF)
  • Whole Body Vibration Therapy ranging 10Hz-60Hz
  • Spinal Decompression

Each vital component is equally important for patient results.

Nerve cells need two things to heal…

  • Fuel
  • Activation

This makes the combination of high-powered lower-level light therapy & nutrition (FUEL) and Nerve Re-Education (ACTIVATION) the perfect 1-2 punch for nerve regeneration!

The amount of treatment needed to allow the nerves to recover varies from person to person and can only be determined after a detailed neurological and vascular evaluation.
