Neuropathy refers to nerve dysfunction that affects sensation, motor control, or both. It can develop gradually or suddenly and may involve the feet, hands, legs, or other areas of the body.

Even when the cause is unknown, many cases involve impaired nerve signaling that can improve with proper neurological rehabilitation.
Common Symptoms of Neuropathy
You may be experiencing neuropathy if you notice:
These symptoms occur because the nerves are not sending accurate or consistent signals to the brain.
How We Evaluate Neuropathy
Your evaluation focuses on both the peripheral nerves and how the brain interprets sensory information. Testing may include:
This helps us determine which nerves are involved and how well they are communicating with the brain.
Neuropathy Treatment Through Functional Neurology
Our treatment focuses on improving nerve signaling, enhancing blood flow, and strengthening the brain’s ability to process sensory input. Your program may include:
Treatments are customized based on your unique exam findings.
Why Our Approach Works
Traditional care often relies on medication to mask symptoms, but Functional Neurology targets the underlying cause of nerve dysfunction. Our approach is:
We regularly help patients who have been told they need to “just live with it.”
You Can Improve with Proper Nerve Rehabilitation
