Why Neuropathy Is So Hard to Treat

Peripheral neuropathy — burning, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the hands and feet — is notoriously difficult because damaged nerves lose the circulation and cellular energy needed to repair. Medications often mask symptoms without addressing the underlying nerve health.

A Multi-Modal Neuropathy Program

At Total Wellness Solutions in Sandy Springs, Dr. Melissa Arnold combines several evidence-informed therapies into a single neuropathy program:

• PEMF Therapy — pulsed electromagnetic fields recharge cellular voltage and improve microcirculation.
• Full-Body Red Light Therapy — near-infrared wavelengths stimulate mitochondrial function and nerve repair.
• Shockwave Therapy — acoustic waves trigger angiogenesis (new blood vessel growth) in oxygen-starved tissue.
• Class IV Laser — reduces neural inflammation and supports axonal regeneration.
• Functional Nutrition — targeted support for blood sugar, B-vitamin status, and inflammation.

What Patients Notice

Improvements typically start with better sleep and reduced night burning, followed by returning sensation and steadier balance. Patients with diabetic neuropathy, chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, or idiopathic neuropathy are common candidates.

Getting Started

A neuropathy consultation includes a sensory exam, circulation check, and a customized plan.
