Neuropathy Treatment

Offering Non-Invasive Solutions to Restore Nerve Function and Improve Quality of Life in the Overland Park Area

What Is Neuropathy?

Neuropathy refers to damage or dysfunction of the peripheral nerves, those responsible for sending signals between the brain, spinal cord, and the rest of the body. When these nerves are impaired, it can result in symptoms like numbness, tingling, burning, and weakness, often in the hands, feet, arms, or legs.

We offer a holistic, drug-free approach to managing neuropathy by addressing underlying causes, improving circulation, and promoting nerve healing through advanced chiropractic care and supportive therapies.

Common Causes of Neuropathy

Neuropathy can stem from a variety of health conditions and lifestyle factors. The most common causes include:

  • Diabetes (diabetic neuropathy)
  • Spinal misalignments and nerve compression
  • Herniated discs or spinal stenosis
  • Nutritional deficiencies (especially B vitamins)
  • Chemotherapy or medication side effects
  • Autoimmune conditions (e.g., lupus, rheumatoid arthritis)
  • Infections or injuries affecting the nerves

Understanding the root cause of your symptoms is essential to creating an effective care plan.

Symptoms of Neuropathy

Neuropathy can present differently for each person, depending on which nerves are affected. Common signs and symptoms include:

  • Tingling or “pins and needles” sensation
  • Numbness or reduced sensation
  • Sharp, stabbing, or burning pain
  • Muscle weakness or cramping
  • Loss of balance or coordination
  • Sensitivity to touch or temperature changes

Symptoms may start subtly and progress over time. Early care is key to managing discomfort and preventing further damage.
