Reduce Nerve Damage Pain

 

Damaged nerves continue to be a difficult condition for medical

practitioners to treat. Severely damaged nerves often have a slower

and longer success rate in healing back into working form. Mildly

damaged nerves can result in pain, tingling and/or itching. This can

be annoying or even debilitating.

 

Nutritional supplements should have a place in your effort against

damaged nerves. Mild nerve damage can result in tingling, burning,

itching, numbness or pain. Many times the damage is the result of

trauma and will repair itself with time and proper nutrition. If

this type of damage is the result of an internal imbalance, such as

diabetes, it will have a chance to improve if this balance is

addressed first.

 

If you are experiencing nerve damage complications such as

neuropathy, itching, numbness or tingling L-Carnitine, Borage Oil

(for Gamma Linolenic Acid content), and Alpha Lipoic Acid have each

been shown to help reduce symptoms in studies on humans.

 

Other substances that have shown promise in human studies include

Inositol, Vitamin B6 and Vitamin B12. Inositol is a particular form

of Vitamin B3. Vitamin B6 can cause neuropathy if you are deficient

or are taking too much. Doses of 150 mg of B6 have helped people

with

neuropathy. Doses over 500 mg per day have caused sensory

neuropathy.

Vitamin B12 is used at the 1000 mcg dose for neuropathy. We have

looked for combinations that will suite these needs but did not find

any.

 

 

Traditional balances different kinds of weakness in

the body. The body is weak inside if you regularly experience

discomfort or pain from feeling too hot or too cold. This is a key

indicator. Once your body becomes weak, any kind of change--

including

outside temperature, exposure to toxins or bacteria or physical

injury, can affect you much worse than it would have if your body

had

been in balance.

 

Many people experience chronic pain after surgery, even if the

surgery was aimed at reducing pain. Many people also find post-

surgery physical therapy painful. This does not mean that the

surgery

was not successful nor that the physical therapy is not working.

Rather, it is evidence that an additional, interim therapy such as

Acupuncture and Herbs is needed to restore balance so the body can

truly recover from surgery and heal properly.

 

Acupuncture has been used in the treatment of various pain problems,

including different regional myofascial pain disorders, tendonitis,

joint pain and pain from nerve damage. Acupuncture has also been

used

for improving problems related to some internal organ functions,

such

as nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy, sinus

congestion, and diarrhea. In addition, acupuncture has been used to

aid in the management of some emotional disorders. Acupuncture also

has been used to help individuals maintain a sense of well-being

and " balance " .

 

Acupuncture and/or movement therapies can be combined with

chiropractic manipulation for an amplified effect.

 

Animal studies showed that Spinal Manipulation by a chiropractor can

produce a number of physical responses, such as decreased blood

pressure and renal and adrenal nerve activity. It may also enhance

immune function by increasing metabolic rates of certain white blood

cells and increasing other substances that play a role in immune

regulation and inflammation. These studies also show that spinal

adjustment can reduce levels of inflammatory Prostaglandins and

possibly increase levels of beta-endorphins, the natural painkillers

in the body.

 

Chiropractic care is a cost-effective alternative to the management

of neuromusculoskeletal conditions. It is also safer, increasingly

accepted by the public as reflected in the growing utilization and

high patient retention rates and there is much and repeated evidence

that patients prefer chiropractic over other forms of care for the

more common musculoskeletal conditions. The integration of

chiropractic into the health care system should serve to reduce

health care costs, improve accessibility to needed care, and improve

health outcomes. There is an extensive body of literature

demonstrating that chiropractic care for NMS disorders is effective.
