Comprehensive neuropathy treatment means combining  the most effective treatments

<<<(back)  Therapeutic ultrasound by itself can be effective in relieving the pain of neuropathy. Combine it with laser, acupuncture and other treatments and you have an excellent chance to promote healing in nerves damaged by peripheral neuropathy.  

Can vitamins and other nutrients help to rebuild nerves in neuropathy?

There are a number of natural substances that research shows may help with the pain of neuropathy. Some nutrients even appear to be capable of reversing neuropathy. Still others are essential is treating the underlying cause of neuropathy.  If you read previous pages of the website you know I strongly believe that neuropathy treatments will likely fail unless and until the causing of the neuropathy is identified and treated. It is simply easier to damage nerves than to heal them, so addressing the underlying cause is the most important step in the process. There are a number of natural approaches to regulate blood sugar and a nutrient derived from rice than can bind and help the body eliminate heavy metals and other toxins. The results can be seen on blood tests and other testing. These are just two examples we use in our practice to help our neuropathy patients. There are many, many more.

My neuropathy patients often ask me about  vitamins and other nutrients they purchase on-line. Most of them have the nutrients that research shows to be helpful in treating peripheral neuropathy, but few contain adequate amounts and proper dosages to be effective. Likewise matching the optimal nutrient with the specific type of neuropathy is also very important.  For example glutamine can be effective for one type of neuropathy, while taurine is more effective for another type of neuropathy. Dose is critical as well as possible interactions with pre-scription medications. So yes, natural substances can be very helpful for neuropathy patients when applied correctly. But even through it is natural,  is is not kid’s play!
