Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment in Scottsdale, AZ

What is peripheral neuropathy? 

Peripheral neuropathy occurs when the nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord become damaged or stop functioning properly. These nerves are responsible for carrying signals between your brain and the rest of your body, including your hands, feet, legs, and arms.

When nerve function is disrupted, you may experience symptoms such as numbness, tingling, burning sensations, weakness, or pain that can interfere with walking, sleeping, exercising, and everyday activities.

Many people first notice neuropathy as a persistent tingling in the toes or a burning sensation in the feet that gradually worsens over time. Without proper treatment, symptoms can become more severe and may affect balance, mobility, and overall quality of life.

What does peripheral neuropathy feel like? – Symptoms

Peripheral Neuropathy symptoms may include but are not limited to:

– Pain, numbness, and tingling in hands, fingers, toes, and feet
– Sharp, jabbing, burning, or throbbing pain in hands or feet
– Sensitivity to touch
– Loss of balance
– Muscle Weakness
– A sensation that you have an elastic band on your hands/feet
– Pain, numbness that spreads from hands/feet up extremities toward the body

What causes peripheral neuropathy?

Typical causes are circulation issues like Diabetes, toxic causes like chemotherapy or alcohol, and a general category called Idiopathic Peripheral Neuropathy. In general, the condition is made up of nerve damage, abnormal nerve transmission or communication, and less then optimal circulation and nutrition.

Common Types of Neuropathy We Treat

At LaserTech Pain and Back Relief Center, we treat many forms of neuropathy, including:

• Diabetic peripheral neuropathy
• Idiopathic neuropathy (neuropathy with no known cause)
• Chemotherapy-induced neuropathy
• Neuropathy related to poor circulation
• Alcohol-related neuropathy
• Peripheral nerve injuries
• Chronic nerve pain affecting the hands, feet, legs, or arms

Because every case is different, treatment is customized to address the underlying cause of your symptoms whenever possible.

Can peripheral neuropathy be treated without medication?

Yes. Peripheral neuropathy is very much a cause and effect type of pain and treatment. This means that we treat each case on a highly individualized case-by-case basis. We use our finely tuned cold laser therapy, along with secondary treatments to provide relief. Each cause of neuropathy requires different types of lasers and different secondary treatments. With our proprietary FDA-approved treatment protocols, we strive to improve your peripheral nerve function, thereby reducing pain and promoting nerve and tissue healing and regeneration.

Why Neuropathy Symptoms Often Continue to Get Worse

Many people with neuropathy are told to simply manage their symptoms with medication. While medications may temporarily reduce discomfort, they typically do not address the underlying nerve dysfunction.

Peripheral neuropathy often involves a combination of:

• Nerve irritation or damage
• Reduced nerve signaling
• Poor circulation
• Inflammation
• Impaired tissue healing

When these issues persist, symptoms such as burning, numbness, tingling, and pain can continue to progress.

Our goal is to improve nerve function and create an environment that supports healing rather than simply masking symptoms.
