The team at Alexander Chiropractic Center offers customized treatment plans to manage your neuropathy. For example, they may provide therapies and treatments to manage the condition that is causing your neuropathy. We may recommend dietary changes or nutritional supplements to address any vitamin deficiencies and improve your overall health.
Additionally, for severe cases, they may recommend chiropractic care and physical therapy to relieve stress on your nerves and help you improve your strength, flexibility, and balance to reduce your risk of falling and injuring yourself.
The treatment we provide has four main goals…
- Optimize the environment within the body for nerve healing.

- Stimulate the nerves that are damaged (small fiber, large diameter, or motor nerves) to reduce pain and improve balance.
- Decrease brain-based pain.
