New Roads chiropractic care of neuropathy pain with nutrition like B vitamins and spinal manipulation.

Neuropathy pain is an annoying pain. It’s sharp, throbbing, burning pain making the involved extremity - be it the feet or hands, toes, fingers, legs - sensitive to even touch. New Roads neuropathic pain sufferers many times observe themselves taking drugs like anticonvulsants and antidepressants and opioids to control neuropathic pain as they are the most universally prescribed ones. (1) Some patients react well. Some experience only slight pain relief. Some can’t take them due to the adverse side-effects. New Roads Chiropractic Center recognizes this annoyance. New Roads Chiropractic Center helps many New Roads neuropathy patients test out other ways to pain relief like nutrition (particularly B vitamins) and spinal manipulation to get the New Roads neuropathic pain relief they want.  

WHAT DRUG ALTERNATIVES ARE AVAILABLE? WHY AREN’T THEY USED MORE?

Nutraceuticals – like vitamin supplements – may well be an important part – supportive or primary – in managing pain. One study reports that sufficiently dosed nutraceuticals may be helpful in managing peripheral neuropathy. Neuropathy may reveal itself as a result of various types of reasons like diabetes, alcoholism, unspecific, or iatrogenic. Plus, these compounds like Vitamin B complex, alpha lipoic acid, L-acetyl carnitine, vitamin E, magnesium, gamma linolenic acid, capsaicin, and Coenzyme Q were tolerated well when used for extended periods of time. Some patients reported nausea and vomiting when ALA was used at 1200 mg or more though. (1,2) Why then if doses can be adjusted aren’t they recommended or used more? They are not usually paid for by insurance, and patients, and doctors may not be familiar with what these options are and what benefits they may offer.  (1) New Roads Chiropractic Center is well informed of such options. New Roads Chiropractic Center helps New Roads chiropractic patients find their way with these options to boost their benefits for New Roads pain relief.

ONE GOOD OPTION: B VITAMINS

B vitamins work. How? B vitamins enhance the effectiveness of morphine’s analgesic effect of blocking pain sensation and reduce chronic morphine tolerance. How is this good? The action of morphine is comparable to the action of neuropathic pain, burning pain that follows a nerve from the spine through an extremity like the leg or arm, coming to rest in the feet, toes, or fingers. B vitamins are reported to lessen neuropathic pain after peripheral nerve injury, sensory neuron inflammation/compression as well as transient spinal cord ischemia (temporary blockage of blood supply to the spinal cord). Adding B vitamins to the pain control drug schedule for a patient with neuropathic pain certainly could well be beneficial! (3) And New Roads Chiropractic Center mixes nutrition with its spinal manipulation Cox® Technic protocols for New Roads neuropathy patients to discover neuropathic pain relief.
