Treatment
Dr. Alfonso’s Neuropathy Treatment Protocol utilizes a combination of specialized therapies designed to rehabilitate the cause of Peripheral Neuropathy. The doctor will select the best treatment therapy combination, frequency, nutritional plan, and home support determined from your consultation, examination and diagnostics. Below is a list with a brief description of therapies and treatments that could be applied to individuals with Peripheral Neuropathy.
Health Light Therapy
Health Light Therapy is applied at specific light wavelengths for acute and chronic Neuropathy patients, which produces the greatest cellular response to promote healing.
HealthLight’s red and infrared diodes cause an increase in local circulation. Infrared therapy, which is cleared by the FDA, relieves pain and improves local circulation inflammation.
Thousands of patients have experienced significant relief from the pain, tingling, numbness, inflammation and swelling that often occurs in conjunction with diabetic, statin, and chemotherapy related Peripheral Neuropathy.
Hako-Med Therapy
Advanced “Horizontal Therapy” extends the effects of standard electrotherapy by simultaneously stimulating the body’s electrical and chemical healing responses.
At a cellular level, electrotherapy is ultimately used to stimulate these electrical and chemical processes to relieve pain and prompt nerve tissue healing. This advanced electrotherapy stimulates the release of natural enzymes and other tissue-building cells in your body. Hako-Med is a safe, effective treatment that is preferred over traditional forms of electrotherapy for the rehabilitation of Peripheral Neuropathy.
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy (PEMF)
Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field therapy directs powerful, pulsed energy waves into damaged or injured tissues.
The pulses at low frequencies pass through the skin and penetrate deeply into muscle, bones, tendons, and nerves. Admittedly, these pulses also increase the cell’s energy, and stimulates its natural repair mechanisms.
These painless waves quickly pass through the cells in the damaged region, and increases the spin of the electrons contained within them. This increase in cellular energy helps to heal damaged tissues, relieve pain, and stimulate cell growth.
Back on Track Decompression
Back on Track traction reduces the painful spinal disc protrusions, bulges, and herniations. This traction also decreases spinal degeneration stenosis pain and numbness. The specialized traction treatment causes intra-discal pressure to drop from a positive to a negative pressure. This negative pressure promotes the diffusion, or intake, of water, oxygen, and nutrients into the damaged dehydrated disc, thereby rehydrating the degenerated disc.
