Neuropathy causes nerve pain, numbness, tingling, burning sensations, and weakness that can interfere with walking, sleeping, working, and daily comfort.
If you experience burning foot pain, numbness in the hands or feet, pins and needles sensations, electric shocks, weakness, balance problems, or sensitivity to touch, you are not alone. Neuropathy affects millions of people and often worsens without proper care.
At Genesis Chiropractic, Dr. Tiffani Fries provides natural, drug-free chiropractic care for neuropathy, drawing on over 24 years of clinical experience to help patients improve nerve function, circulation, and quality of life.
Common Types of Neuropathy
Neuropathy occurs when nerves become damaged, compressed, or irritated. This disrupts how signals travel between the brain and body.
Peripheral neuropathy – Affects hands and feet
Radiculopathy – Nerve compression from the spine
Diabetic neuropathy – Related to blood sugar imbalance
Entrapment neuropathy – Pinched nerves (carpal tunnel, sciatica)
Idiopathic neuropathy – No clear cause identified
Common Causes
- Spinal disc problems
- Diabetes and blood sugar issues
- Vitamin deficiencies
- Poor circulation
- Repetitive strain
- Injuries or accidents
- Inflammation
- Poor posture
When nerves are compressed or deprived of proper blood flow, symptoms develop and often progress.
