Peripheral Neuropathy

Many people experience peripheral neuropathy without fully understanding what it is. Nerve pain of any kind can be debilitating, causing a person to reduce their physical activity and become more sedentary, which can actually worsen the problem. If you are experiencing symptoms of peripheral neuropathy, chronic pain relief can be achieved through neurological rehabilitation and its many treatment options.

What Is Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy is a condition in which nerves throughout the body (away from the spinal column) are damaged by injury or illness. It is a common issue for individuals who suffer from poor circulation, diabetes, or injuries that impact the major nerve centers located in various areas of the body. The pain can be progressive, gradually worsening over time, and requiring a long-term care plan.

Treatment Options

There are many rehabilitation treatment options that are effective in re-establishing neurological connectivity. Balance training, neuromuscular education, and other activities used in our rehabilitation programs can treat chronic pain, tingling, and numbness that often accompany various types of peripheral nerve damage in the limbs and extremities. Understanding how the nerves in the body communicate allows us to identify the right treatment options for each of our patients.

The Benefits of Neurological Rehabilitation

Neurological rehabilitation provides patients an opportunity to find relief from chronic pain and discomfort. By understanding how the brain and nerves interact, we can focus on individual clusters of nerves and use specific rehabilitation exercises and activities that encourage and promote healing. Rehabilitation works to restore proper function to nerves that have been affected by illness or injury, allowing them to become stronger and more viable.
