Natural Relief for Peripheral Neuropathy at Orangetown Acupuncture

Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that affects the nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord. It often causes pain, tingling, numbness, or burning sensations in the hands and feet. For many individuals, neuropathy makes everyday activities—like walking, exercising, or even sleeping—very challenging.

At Orangetown Acupuncture in Orangeburg, NY, we help patients throughout Orangetown, Rockland County, and Bergen County, NJ find safe, natural relief from nerve-related pain through acupuncture and integrative care.

Understanding Peripheral Neuropathy

Peripheral neuropathy occurs when the peripheral nerves are damaged or not functioning properly. Symptoms can range from mild discomfort to severe, life-impacting pain. Common signs include:

• Tingling, numbness, or “pins and needles” in the hands or feet

• Burning or sharp, shooting pain

• Weakness or loss of coordination

• Heightened sensitivity to touch or temperature

• Balance problems or difficulty walking

  
  

Common Causes of Neuropathy

Neuropathy isn’t a single condition—it’s often linked to underlying health issues. The most common causes include:

• Diabetes (Diabetic Neuropathy) – High blood sugar damages nerves over time.

• Chemotherapy or Cancer Treatments – Certain medications can injure nerves.

• Injury or Surgery – Trauma to nerves may lead to long-term pain.

• Alcohol use, infections, or vitamin deficiencies – These can affect nerve health.

• Autoimmune or systemic conditions – Such as lupus or thyroid disorders.

  
  

How Acupuncture Helps Peripheral Neuropathy

Acupuncture supports nerve health by targeting the root imbalances that contribute to neuropathy symptoms. One of the most important ways it helps is by improving circulation.

Better circulation means more oxygen and nutrients reach the affected areas. This aids the body’s natural processes of repair and regeneration of damaged nerve tissue. This not only reduces pain but also supports long-term healing.

Other ways acupuncture helps include:

• Calming overactive pain signals to the brain

• Reducing inflammation around the nerves

• Releasing natural endorphins for pain relief

• Supporting balance, mobility, and overall comfort
