If you’ve been Googling “chiropractor near me in Joplin” because you need neuropathy treatment, discover the benefits of laser therapy.
What is Laser Therapy?
Laser therapy uses safe levels of infrared light to target and penetrate deep within your body’s tissues. As the light penetrates your skin, it can reach damaged tissue that otherwise would require invasive procedures or surgical intervention to treat. The light is absorbed by these damaged tissues, stimulating the body’s healing processes and nerve regrowth. Laser therapy is non-invasive, so there is no downtime between treatments, and you can resume your normal daily routine after each laser neuropathy treatment.
How Laser Therapy Eases Symptoms of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
Because laser therapy stimulates the release of endorphins, hormones, and chemicals that promote healing throughout the body, it can ease many of the symptoms of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Laser therapy has been clinically proven to reduce pain, ease inflammation, decrease joint stiffness, improve mobility and range of motion in the joints, accelerate nerve repair and regeneration, improve nerve function, and speed up the body’s overall healing processes.
Common Symptoms of Neuropathy That Laser Therapy Targets
Insulin resistance and a buildup of glucose in the blood can cause tissue and nerve damage, resulting in painful, debilitating symptoms. If your symptoms are preventing you from eating, sleeping, working, exercising, taking part in hobbies, or seeing family and friends, you might be a good candidate for laser therapy treatment for neuropathy. Laser therapy targets these common symptoms of diabetic peripheral neuropathy:
- Numbness or inability to feel hot, cold, or pain
- Burning or tingling sensations
- Sharp pains and/or cramps
- Increased sensitivity to touch
- Foot infections or ulcers, and/or bone or joint pain
