Neuropathy after chemotherapy – Many Miami cancer survivors face a new challenge after treatment: neuropathy caused by chemotherapy, often referred to as chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Tingling, burning, numbness, or stabbing pain in the hands and feet can persist long after the final round of chemo is over, interfering with sleep, balance, and quality of life.
But here’s the good news: neuropathy doesn’t have to be permanent. At the Neuropathy Relief Center of Miami, we help patients heal damaged nerves without additional drugs or invasive procedures.
Why Does Chemotherapy Cause Nerve Damage?
Chemotherapy drugs are powerful and necessary for fighting cancer, but they also target fast-growing healthy cellsincluding nerve cells. This can damage the peripheral nervous system, especially the small fibers in the hands and feet.
Some common chemo drugs that are known to cause CIPN include:
- Taxol (Paclitaxel)
- Cisplatin and Carboplatin
- Vincristine
- Oxaliplatin
Symptoms often begin during treatment and can continue for months or years afterward, worsening with time if left untreated.
Common Symptoms of Chemotherapy-Induced Neuropathy
- Numbness or tingling in the hands or feet
- A “pins and needles” sensation
- Sharp, stabbing, or burning pain
- Cold sensitivity or temperature dysregulation
- Muscle weakness or loss of balance
- Difficulty sleeping due to pain
If you’re experiencing these symptoms after completing cancer treatment, you are not alone and we can help.
Why Traditional Treatments Often Fall Short

In most conventional settings, neuropathy is treated with:
- Pain medications
- Anticonvulsants like Gabapentin or Lyrica
- Antidepressants like Cymbalta
- Physical therapy
While these approaches can dull symptoms, they do not heal the damaged nerves. In many cases, they cause side effects like fatigue, brain fog, and dependency without addressing the root issue.
That’s why many Miami patients are turning to drug-free, research-backed therapies that promote nerve regeneration, not just pain relief.
A Better Approach: Dr. Alfonso’s Neuropathy Treatment Protocol
At the Neuropathy Relief Center of Miami, Dr. Rodolfo Alfonso uses a customized, non-surgical protocol that helps repair nerves damaged by chemotherapy.
Each patient receives a personalized plan that may include:
- Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF): Improves cellular energy and circulation
- Red and Infrared Light Therapy (Photobiomodulation): Stimulates tissue repair and reduces inflammation
- Therapeutic vibration and circulation massage: Improves blood flow and oxygen to damaged areas
- Nutrition and home care: Addresses nutrient deficiencies and supports long-term recovery
These treatments stimulate nerve regeneration, improve blood flow, and help reduce pain without drugs or surgery.
