When “Pins and Needles” and Burning Pain Start Controlling Your Every Step
I understand how frightening and frustrating it is to feel like you’re losing touch with your own body. Many of my patients describe neuropathy as walking on marbles, broken glass, or cotton balls. It’s a constant, distracting sensation that makes every step feel uncertain.
Peripheral neuropathy isn’t just a “minor tingling.” It is a sign that your nerves are starving for oxygen and nutrients, or are being compressed by inflammation and poor circulation. Whether it’s caused by diabetes, spinal issues, or circulatory changes, the result is the same: your nerves start sending “false signals” of stabbing, burning, or electric shocks, often at their worst when you are trying to sleep.
Others talk about the “Invisible Threat” of Numbness. When you can’t feel the floor beneath your feet, your balance suffers. You start to worry about falling, you stop going for walks, and you find yourself looking at your feet just to make sure they are where you think they are. This leads to a frustrating cycle of inactivity and isolation.
With a specialized, non-invasive approach designed to improve nerve signaling, stimulate blood flow, and address the root cause of the damage, there is real hope. Together, we will “re-light” your nerve pathways and get you back to walking with confidence and comfort.

Introducing
(Even if you’ve been told surgery is your only option!)
Your journey begins with a thorough evaluation and personalized plan. We identify the root causes of pain or dysfunction, correct biomechanical imbalances, and set clear goals. Starting better means building a strong foundation for recovery, ensuring every treatment is purposeful and tailored to your unique needs.
Once we address the underlying issues, patients experience relief and improved comfort quickly. Through chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, and acupuncture, we reduce pain, restore mobility, and improve function. Feeling better is about regaining energy and confidence, so everyday activities are easier and life feels more manageable.
Sustained results require ongoing support and proactive strategies. We teach corrective exercises, posture habits, and lifestyle guidance to prevent recurrence. Staying better ensures long-term health, maintaining mobility and reducing pain flare-ups, so patients continue thriving well after the intensive treatment plan ends.
Our ultimate goal is helping patients achieve peak function in daily life, work, and athletics. Performance improvement includes enhanced strength, flexibility, endurance, and overall wellbeing. Performing better means not just living without pain, but moving, working, and playing at your full potential with confidence and resilience
Neuropathy is a neurological disorder affecting the peripheral nervous system, which consists of nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord. It refers to damage or dysfunction of these nerves leading to a range of symptoms and complications. The peripheral nerves are crucial in transmitting signals between the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the rest of the body, including the muscles, organs, and sensory organs. They enable communication necessary for movement, sensation, and bodily functions.
The disruption of normal transmission signals leads to tingling or numbness, sharp or burning pain, muscle weakness, coordination difficulties, and changes in sensation. It may arise from conditions such as diabetes, autoimmune disorders, infections, nutritional deficiencies, exposure to toxins, certain medications, hereditary factors, or physical trauma.
A neuropathy diagnosis impacts individuals depending on the type and severity of the condition. Some individuals may experience mild discomfort or occasional symptoms, while others may suffer from chronic pain and significant limitations in their daily activities. Chiropractic care helps manage neuropathy systems and restore balance to the nervous system to reverse symptoms and improve our patient’s quality of life.
Neuropathy is often called a “silent epidemic” because its symptoms are often misdiagnosed or overlooked. If you or a loved one you know is living with neuropathy, it’s essential to understand how to manage your symptoms and get relief.
Many of my neuropathy patients come in frustrated by the burning, tingling, and numbness, and tired of being handed another prescription.
The neoGEN® system works by sending Electric Cell Signaling (EcST) energy waves into the affected area to calm pain signaling, activate your muscles, and improve circulation. It’s FDA-indicated for chronic, intractable pain, increased local circulation, and neuromuscular reeducation.
That last piece matters when nerve trouble starts throwing off your balance.
Patients can relax during an EcST session, with most people feeling a mild tingling or pulsing sensation. For some patients, we add SynRG red and infrared light therapy, which is painless and adds extra therapeutic support. After a couple of weeks, our patients are back to things that used to be a pleasure but had become a chore, like yard work, grocery trips, and a full round of golf.
Whole body vibration is a good fit for patients whose neuropathy is affecting their balance and confidence on their feet.
You stand on a platform that oscillates very quickly, which triggers small, automatic muscle contractions and stimulates sensory receptors in the feet and legs. It also appears to boost blood flow to the skin, which supports circulation to the extremities.
During a session, most people feel a steady humming or buzzing through the feet and calves, and we pair it with slow, simple movements like heel raises and weight shifts. Sessions are short, usually about ten minutes, two or three times a week.
In small studies of people with diabetic neuropathy, pain, balance, and walking tests improved over roughly six weeks. The practical payoff we aim for is steadier footing on stairs, in the kitchen, and on uneven sidewalks.
Chiropractic care is a drug-free, non-invasive treatment option for neuropathy that focuses on restoring normal function to the nervous system. By aligning the spine and correcting subluxations, chiropractors can take pressure off the nerves and allow them to heal.
Chiropractic care effectively reduces pain, improves nerve function, and increases range of motion. It is a practical and safe treatment to help you get back to living your life.
Physical therapy is often the backbone of a neuropathy plan, because nerve damage doesn’t just hurt, it changes how you move.
We start by checking your strength, balance, gait, and how well you can feel the ground under your feet. From there, the work is hands-on and practical:
At New Jersey Health & Performance, sessions feel like a focused workout with a coach, and you will never be pushed into pain. Over time, stronger muscles and better body awareness can help make up for the signals your nerves aren’t sending reliably.
Many patients find that stairs, curbs, and long walks feel less risky. You’ll also leave with a home program, so progress doesn’t stop when the appointment does.
Acupuncture is one of the older options for neuropathy, and it’s one I recommend for patients who want something gentler alongside their other care.
Our acupuncturist delicately stimulates your nerves and muscles, affecting how your brain processes pain signals and improving local blood flow. Most people feel a mild pinch, a dull ache, or a warm, heavy sensation at the needle, and many find sessions deeply relaxing. A typical session lasts 20 to 40 minutes, and treatment is usually spaced over several weeks.
The goal with acupuncture is to help relieve the burning and tingling neuropathy symptoms so you can sleep better and be more comfortable throughout the day.
If acupuncture is right for you, we’ll let you know. If it isn’t, we’ll definitely tell you that too.
Peripheral neuropathy is nerve damage resulting from:
Symptoms may include numbness, tingling, pain, and weakness.
Diabetic neuropathy is the most common type of peripheral neuropathy. It typically affects the feet and legs first and can eventually spread to the hands and arms. Diabetic neuropathy is the result of nerve damage due to high blood pressure.
Proximal neuropathy, also known as lumbosacral plexus mononeuropathy, is a type of peripheral nerve damage that occurs when the lumbosacral plexus, a network of nerves in the lower back and pelvis, is damaged. This neuropathy can cause weakness and pain in the legs and hips. Proximal neuropathy is most often caused by diabetes, but certain infections, injuries, or tumors can also cause it. Treatment for proximal mononeuropathy typically relieves pain and improves strength and function.
Autonomic neuropathy affects the autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary body actions like blood pressure, heart rate, digestion, and sweating. It can occur in any part of the autonomic nervous system.
Symptoms of autonomic neuropathy depend on which organ or body system is affected. If blood pressure control is affected, symptoms may include lightheadedness or fainting when standing up too quickly. If the digestive system is affected, symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation. Other possible symptoms include trouble urinating (urinary incontinence), sexual dysfunction, and problems with sweating.
Other conditions, such as diabetes or certain infections, usually cause autonomic mononeuropathy. It can also be caused by certain medications or surgery. In some cases, the cause is unknown.
Treatment for autonomic mononeuropathy focuses on managing the underlying condition and relieving symptoms. For example, if diabetes is the cause, treatment will focus on controlling blood sugar levels. If orthostatic hypotension is a problem, your doctor may recommend wearing compression stockings to help keep your blood pressure from dropping when you stand up.
Focal mononeuropathy is another one of the more common forms. This occurs when a nerve or group of nerves is damaged, causing various symptoms depending on which nerves are affected.
Focal neuropathy can occur suddenly or gradually. Other symptoms, such as numbness, tingling, and pain, often accompany it. In some cases, focal mononeuropathy can lead to muscle weakness or paralysis.

Chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and treating mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine. Chiropractors use manual therapy, including manipulation of the spine, joints, and soft tissues, and ergonomic and nutritional counseling.
A study published in The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine found that chiropractic adjustments improve nerve function in peripheral neuropathy patients. Another study published in BMC Neurology found that chiropractic care effectively reduced pain and improved the quality of life for people with diabetic mononeuropathy.
No, a chiropractic adjustment cannot cause nerve damage. Adjustments improve nerve function, reducing pain and other symptoms related to nerve damage.
Neuropathy is a debilitating condition that can cause pain, numbness, and tingling in the extremities. It is often caused by nerve damage or compression. Spinal decompression is a treatment option that can help relieve neuropathy symptoms.
Spinal decompression works by mildly stretching the spine, creating negative pressure within the discs to relieve pressure on the nerves. Decompression also increases blood flow to the area, which can assist in minimizing inflammation and pain.
Chiropractic care is a holistic approach to health care that focuses on the body’s ability to heal. When the body is in alignment, the nervous system functions properly, and the body can heal itself.
Numbness, tingling, and other sensory issues indicate nerve damage or dysfunction. Chiropractors use various techniques to align the spine and improve nerve function, relieving pain and other neuropathy symptoms.
There are a few warning signs that may indicate you have neuropathy. These include:
There are many possible neuropathy causes, but nerve damage is the most common. This can be caused by physical injury, infection, or exposure to certain toxins or chemicals. It can also be caused by diabetes or other diseases that affect the nervous system.
Peripheral nerves have a remarkable ability to heal. Chiropractic care optimizes the nervous system’s healing ability by removing nerve interference. Ultimately, recovery depends on the severity of your condition.
The most critical thing you can do to stop neuropathy from progressing is to see your chiropractor. Many treatments available can help slow the progression of neuropathy and improve your quality of life.
Chiropractic adjustments remove nerve interference to relieve symptoms and improve nerve function. You may need to make lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking or managing diabetes, to help prevent further damage to your nerves.
