➡️ How Does the Peripheral Nervous System Work?
The Peripheral Nervous System works by connecting the nerves in the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body. This is how signals from your brain are able to reach your arms, hands, legs, feet, and internal organs — all thanks to your nerves. But if they become damaged or destroyed, this is referred to as a condition called Neuropathy.

➡️ What is Neuropathy?
Also known as Peripheral Neuropathy, it's a disorder that occurs when your nerves are not functioning properly. It results in weakness, numbness, and/or pain, typically, in the hands and feet, but can occur in other parts of the body as well. Peripheral neuropathy is often caused by diabetes, but it can also result from injuries, infections, and exposure to certain toxins.

➡️ The treatment methods for neuropathy include:
▪ Pain medications
▪ Prescriptions medications
▪ Plasmapheresis
▪ Transcutaneous Electronic Nerve Stimulation
▪ Ergonomic casts
▪ Acupuncture
▪ Massage
▪ Meditation
▪ Yoga
▪ Chiropractic care

Your doctor or medical professional will be able to recommend the most appropriate treatment methods for this condition because they will know more about your individual condition.

➡️ Some of the most effective ways to prevent neuropathy include:
▪ Avoid or quit smoking
▪ Eat a healthy diet
