Neuropathy

Neuropathy is a condition where nerves—most often in the hands or feet—are damaged or deteriorating. This damage can interrupt the normal flow of signals between your brain and body, leading to:

• Tingling or “pins and needles” sensations
• Numbness or reduced sensation
• Burning, stabbing, or shooting pain
• Weakness or balance issues
• Increased sensitivity (even light touch causes pain)

Causes include diabetes, chemotherapy, autoimmune disorders, infections, or injury. Many conventional treatments focus on symptom management using medications, but they don’t actually heal the nerves. Without proper intervention, symptoms often worsen.

At our Northbrook clinic, we specialize in therapies that go beyond symptom masking—we target the damaged nerves and support the body in healing itself.

SoftWave Therapy is FDA-cleared and uses advanced acoustic wave technology to stimulate tissue regeneration at the cellular level. For neuropathy, this means:

1. Increasing blood flow to nerves and surrounding tissues, improving nutrient delivery
2. Stimulating the release of growth factors and nitric oxide, essential for nerve repair
3. Reducing inflammation that compresses and irritates nerves
4. Activating dormant stem cells to regenerate damaged nerve fibers
5. Enhancing nerve signaling, which can restore lost sensation and reduce hypersensitivity

Patients often report reduced pain, tingling, and numbness after just a few sessions. For those who have been told “there’s nothing more we can do,” SoftWave may be the breakthrough they’ve been waiting for.
