Collection: Peripheral Neuropathy
What is Peripheral Neuropathy?
Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that occurs when the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord (peripheral nerves) are damaged. These nerves are responsible for transmitting signals between the central nervous system and the rest of the body. When they’re affected, it can lead to numbness, tingling, pain, or weakness, usually in the hands and feet.
Peripheral neuropathy can be caused by diabetes, infections, trauma, toxins, autoimmune diseases, or certain medications, and symptoms can range from mild discomfort to severe nerve pain.
Symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy
- Tingling, numbness, or "pins and needles"
- Burning or sharp pain in the hands or feet
- Muscle weakness or twitching
- Sensitivity to touch
- Difficulty with coordination or balance
- Feeling like you’re wearing gloves or socks when you’re not
- Changes in skin, hair, or nail health in the affected areas
Natural Support for Peripheral Neuropathy
To support nerve regeneration, reduce inflammation, and help restore proper nerve function, our practitioners recommend:
- CH183 Lion’s Mane Tincture or Capsules – A powerful nootropic mushroom known to stimulate nerve growth factor (NGF), helping regenerate damaged nerves and improve cognitive and nervous system function.
- CH203 Colloidal Gold Liquid – Known for its ability to enhance mental clarity and improve nerve conductivity, this trace mineral supports overall neurological balance and repair.
Natural Ways to Support Nerve Health
- Adopt an anti-inflammatory diet – Include omega-3s, turmeric, garlic, green leafy vegetables, and berries.
- Manage blood sugar levels – Especially for those with diabetic neuropathy, as high glucose can further damage nerves.
- Get regular, gentle exercise – Improves blood flow to nerves and helps reduce stiffness.
- Limit alcohol and toxins – These can worsen nerve damage over time.
- Take warm baths or use heat therapy – Helps increase circulation and reduce pain.
- Massage and physical therapy – Stimulates nerves and improves mobility.
- Practice good foot and hand care – Especially for those with reduced sensation, to avoid unnoticed injuries.
Note: Peripheral neuropathy can worsen if left unmanaged. While natural support can help relieve symptoms and improve nerve function, it's important to address the root cause and work alongside your healthcare provider for a comprehensive approach.
