Acupuncture For Neuropathy

Acupuncture for neuropathy is able to restore nerve damage, relieve discomfort, and stimulate blood flow. Acupuncture focuses on encouraging the body to promote its self-healing abilities, and eliminate any underlying cause of neuropathy. There are 3 – 6 million cases of neuropathy in the United States alone each year, and with that big of a number, that’s where acupuncture steps in to help with results that last long after your session ends.

What will happen at my consultation for neuropathy?

For your first consultation, our acupuncturist will do an extensive look at your medical history as well as examine you to determine your current state. Our acupuncturist may ask you about how, what, where, and when you feel pain, perspire, sleep, eat, drink, and exercise just to name a few. Additionally, our acupuncturist will also potentially feel your pulse, and observe your tongue as this gives clues as to your underlying condition causing your neuropathy pain.

How does acupuncture work for my neuropathy?

By improving your blood flow, the nerve tissues of the affected part of the body can be replenished in order to repair the functions of the nerve, and alleviate the pain.

What treatment will be used for my neuropathy?

Our acupuncturist will determine the appropriate treatment action both during the consultation, and also seeing how your symptoms improve with each session. In addition to finding the proper acupuncture points for your neuropathy, our acupuncturist has other helpful treatments that may be utilized during your sessions. Some other options for treatment can include herbal formulas, electroacupuncture, and moxibustion.

What are electroacupuncture & moxibustion, and how can they help with my neuropathy?

 

Electroacupuncture involves the use of a small electric current between two acupuncture needles. Moxibustion is somewhat of a combination of acupuncture and Chinese herbs consisting of burning mugwort leaf to stimulate acupuncture points. Both of these options are extremely proficient in treating neuropathy pain as well as reducing the feeling of “pins and needles” that sometimes comes with neuropathy.
