Neuropathy Care in the Dallas-Fort Worth Area
Neuropathy is a condition caused by damaged nerves, and peripheral neuropathy affects more than 20 million people in the United States. At I Heart Chiro, we offer supportive, drug-free chiropractic care for neuropathy at your home anywhere in Dallas-Fort Worth to help ease symptoms, improve circulation, and support nerve function alongside your medical care.
What Is Peripheral Neuropathy?
Peripheral neuropathy occurs when the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord are damaged. It is often associated with diabetes, autoimmune diseases, infections, tumors, vitamin deficiencies, or hereditary conditions. Nerve compression in the spine, such as a pinched nerve, can also produce similar symptoms.
Common Symptoms
- Tingling, “pins and needles,” or burning pain, often in the hands and feet
- Numbness or reduced sensation
- Muscle weakness, cramps, or spasms
- Difficulty moving your arms or legs and problems with balance
- Muscle wasting (atrophy) in advanced cases
How Chiropractic Care Supports Neuropathy
Chiropractic care focuses on the health of the spine and nervous system. Your chiropractor will evaluate your spine, posture, and extremities to look for areas of nerve irritation that may be adding to your symptoms. Care may include gentle chiropractic adjustments, muscle therapy such as electrical stimulation to support circulation and comfort, and balance and corrective exercises. Because neuropathy has many causes, we encourage patients to continue working with their medical provider.
Related Conditions
Neuropathy symptoms can overlap with sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, and degenerative disc disease, so an accurate assessment matters.
