Peripheral neuropathy results from damage to the peripheral nerves, disrupting communication between the brain, spinal cord, and body. Symptoms include numbness, tingling, burning, and weakness, often in the hands and feet. Causes include diabetes, trauma, infections, and toxin exposure. At Reflex Spinal Health in Reading, we offer specialised peripheral neuropathy treatment to alleviate symptoms and enhance quality of life through non-invasive therapies.
Massage therapy at Reflex Spinal Health is a key component of peripheral neuropathy treatment in Reading. Our therapists utilise techniques such as deep tissue massage and myofascial release to enhance circulation, reduce muscle tension, and alleviate pain. Improved blood flow to affected areas helps reduce inflammation and enhance mobility. A 2017 study in the Journal of Pain Research demonstrated that massage therapy significantly reduced neuropathic pain and improved quality of life [3]. Regular massage sessions at our clinic offer drug-free relief, enabling patients to manage their daily activities with greater ease.
Class 4 laser therapy, specifically K-Laser, is a cutting-edge treatment offered at Reflex Spinal Health for peripheral neuropathy treatment. K-Laser uses targeted wavelengths to penetrate tissues, stimulating cellular repair, reducing inflammation, and promoting nerve regeneration. A 2021 study in Lasers in Medical Science found that Class 4 laser therapy significantly reduced pain and improved nerve function in patients with diabetic neuropathy [4]. Treatments are painless, lasting 5-20 minutes, with patients often feeling a soothing warmth. K-Laser (Class 4 therapeutic laser therapy) enhances microcirculation, critical for healing damaged nerves, making it a powerful tool in our arsenal.
