Understanding Peripheral Neuropathy: A Path to Relief
Peripheral Neuropathy refers to disorders of the peripheral nerves, affecting over 20 million Americans. Despite its prevalence, it remains under-recognized, with half of diabetics and many on statin medications at risk. This condition involves damage to the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord, disrupting signals that control everything from sensation to movement.
What is Peripheral Neuropathy?
At its core, neuropathy means a disorder or dysfunction of the nervous system. However, this broad definition fails to capture the true impact of the condition. Peripheral Neuropathy often results from systemic issues, such as diabetes, which can affect nerves throughout the bodyāfrom the brain and heart to the hands and feet. Damage typically occurs in the axons, the nerve's signal transmitters, or the protective myelin sheath, leading to impaired communication between nerves and muscles.
Symptoms: More Than Meets the Eye
Peripheral Neuropathy symptoms manifest as both "negative" (loss of reflexes, sensation, or strength) and "positive" (pain, tingling, burning, or stabbing sensations). Early stages often go unnoticed as the brain compensates for minor losses. Over time, however, damaged nerves cause debilitating pain, disrupting sleep and daily life. Patients frequently describe symptoms differently, leading to misdiagnoses or treatment focused on masking pain rather than addressing nerve damage. Some neuropathies develop gradually, others suddenly. Patients may experience weakness, difficulty walking, or balance issues due to lost sensation. These symptoms often result in falls and injuries, yet go undiagnosed without specialized testing. Left untreated, symptoms worsen, potentially leaving patients unable to walk or suffering relentless, excruciating pain, especially at night.
The Challenge with Traditional Treatments
Current medical treatments offer no cure for Peripheral Neuropathy. Powerful medications only dull the brainās pain response without repairing nerve damage. Many patients find this "drugged" existence intolerable, yet feel trapped with no alternatives. Some neuropathies develop gradually, others suddenly.

Questions? Youāre covered.
Peripheral Neuropathy refers to damage to the peripheral nerves, which connect the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body. This condition disrupts nerve signals, causing symptoms such as pain, numbness, and weakness. It affects over 20 million Americans, often due to diabetes, statin medications, or other systemic conditions.
Symptoms include two types of signs:
- Negative signs: Loss of reflexes, sensation, or strength, often unnoticed at first.
- Positive signs: Tingling, burning, stabbing pain, or electric shocks, which can disrupt sleep and daily activities. These symptoms worsen over time if left untreated.
Patients describe symptoms differently, and traditional medical training may not focus on recognizing and addressing nerve damage. This can lead to misdiagnoses and treatments that mask symptoms rather than resolve the underlying issue.
Current medical treatments use powerful medications to dull the brainās pain response. However, these do not repair nerve damage, leaving patients feeling "drugged" without addressing the root cause.
At Boston Neuropathy Center, we focus on treating the underlying nerve damage using advanced, non-invasive therapies. Our goal is to provide effective results without relying on harsh medications, helping patients reclaim their quality of life.
