I’ve seen so many people struggling with peripheral neuropathy, including my own Mum—the kind of nerve pain that hits hard in your hands and feet, leaving you with numbness or that annoying tingling, writes Reading Chiropractor Andy Green. It’s tough, especially as we get older, and the usual treatments don’t always cut it. That’s why I’m excited about what we’re doing at Reflex Spinal Health in Reading with our K-Laser. It’s this Class 4 laser therapy—photobiostimulation, they call it—and it’s been a game-changer for some of our patients.
The way it works is pretty cool. This light penetrates deeply into your tissues, triggering cellular activity. It boosts

something called ATP, which helps your nerves heal, and reduces inflammation. I’ve noticed it really gets the blood flowing and eases that oxidative stress that messes with neuropathy. With our K-Laser, we can target those problem areas directly, and patients have told me they feel less pain and a bit more life in their hands and feet after a few sessions. Just ask my Mum! We have treated both her hands which were feeling cold and numb. She was struggling to feel things and day to day tasks like opening food packets, or getting dressed were getting harder and harder to manage. Mum now says that one of her hands is now about 80% better, while the other has improved by about 50%. Whilst not a total resolution this has been a significant improvement in her condition and her activities of daily life.
From what I’ve seen, the K-Laser therapy isn’t just about masking the pain. It appears to help repair damaged nerves by stimulating growth factors and promoting better circulation. I love that it’s a natural option—no pills with weird side effects here. We tailor each session to fit the individual, which makes it feel personal, not like a one-size-fits-all approach.
It’s safe too, which I always stress to our patients. The sessions are short—maybe 10-15 minutes—and you’re good to go right after. Sure, we need more further studies to back it all up, but the feedback I’ve gotten here at the clinic is very encouraging. There is a growing body of research demonstrating evidence of the effects of therapeutic laser on a range of conditions including peripheral neuropathy. People say it’s lifted their spirits and made daily life easier.
If you’re dealing with neuropathy, I’d say give our K-Laser therapy a shot at Reflex Spinal Health. It’s a modern peripheral neuropathy treatment, and a way to find some relief and get back to enjoying life. Pop in or give us a call—I’d love to chat about how this peripheral neuropathy treatment could work for you. We’re all about helping you feel better, and this might just be the ticket.
I believe this approach is part of a broader shift toward gentler treatments, and I’m proud that we’re leading the way in Reading with our K-Laser. I hope you will find it as useful to you as my own Mum has found it!
