Neuropathy is a condition that affects the nerve cells which are crucial in movement, sensation, and touch. Diabetic neuropathy refers to nerve cell damage by diabetes. A high blood sugar level in a person with diabetes can cause damage to the nerves with time. There are several types of neuropathies, such as peripheral, autonomic, proximal, and focal.

According to studies, about 60-70% of people having diabetes develop a type of neuropathy in their lives. It is estimated that more than 48 million people in the US will be diagnosed with diabetes by 2050.

Traditionally, diabetic neuropathy could not be reversed; only treatments of the symptoms, such as carefully managing blood sugar, could be used. However, recent advanced treatments provide a way for treating certain neuropathy. One of these methods is laser treatment.

Can Diabetic Neuropathy Be Reversed

Traditionally, diabetic neuropathy could not be reversed since the body is unable to repair the damaged nerve tissues naturally. However, recent research suggests that laser treatments can be effective for treating some neuropathy types. Individuals have different neuropathy symptoms based on the affected nerves.

There has been effectiveness in using laser treatments for diabetic neuropathy, such as those offered by Restore Podiatry and Laser Centre.

Advanced Treatment Options for Diabetic Neuropathy

1. Class 4 Laser Therapy

Class 4 laser therapy is a treatment option solely offered by Restore Podiatry & Laser Center. It involves the usage of light wavelengths that enter deep into the tissues and stimulate the natural healing process of the body. This is an innovative treatment method that ensures nerve cell regeneration, reduces inflammation, and improves blood circulation.

For example, this method means a huge pain and discomfort reduction in patients with peripheral neuropathy and also improvement in mobility and sensation. This approach is headed by Dr. Bhela at

Restore Podiatry & Laser Center. We aim at offering patient-focused personalized care. Through the incorporation of evidence-based, natural regenerative medicine and non-surgical treatments, we provide a safe approach for our patients.

2. Deep Tissue Robotic Laser Therapy

Deep tissue robotic laser therapy is an advanced, efficient and safe treatment option for individuals suffering from neuropathy. It is a non surgical, non invasive, and modern treatment method. Deep Tissue Robotic Laser Therapy enhances blood flow, heals the nerve and provides nutrients to the damaged areas in the body. Though every individual will have unique outcomes, the normal result patients can get is 60-100% improvement of the symptoms and nerve pain.

3. Class 2 Laser Therapy

Class 2 laser therapy can help a neuropathy patient stimulate microcirculation around the nerve fibers. This process increases the blood flow to the nerves and helps heal and lower neuropathic pain. During the process, the laser light enters the skin and stimulates increased oxygen on the cellular level. Class 2 laser therapy is painless and has been proven to reduce neuropathy and inflammation while also aiding in the healing of tendons and wounds.

4. High-Intensity Laser Therapy

This laser therapy utilizes specific infrared light wavelengths to provide health benefits. The light enters the skin to reach the nerve tissue inside the body. When your body absorbs this light, it stimulates the production of nerve growth factors (special compounds that help regenerate and heal damaged nerves). High intensity laser therapy can lower many signs of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, by increasing nerve repair and regeneration, relieving pain, speeding healing and improving nerve function.

Conclusion

Diabetic neuropathy is a condition that requires careful consideration and attention. There are several methods that help cater to people with this condition and offer relief. Exploring these advanced treatment options is crucial to know what works best for you and ensure you get your life back in control.
