Local Doctor Provides Cutting Edge Technology to Help Treat Peripheral Neuropathy.
HealthLight pulsed infrared light therapy devices and vibration therapy adopted and recommended by Foothills Chiropractic, a member of Neuropathy Treatment Centers of America. For use by people with diabetic and/or chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy.
Simpsonville, SC 9-24-09 - A local leader in alternative health care options, Foothills Chiropractic, a member of Neuropathy Treatment Centers of America, has implemented the HealthLight pulsed infrared light therapy devices into its clinics in Simpsonville and Travelers Rest, SC. HealthLight devices are most commonly used for reducing pain and providing symptomatic reversal of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Often associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, these symptoms occur in patients with restless leg syndrome, sciatic neuropathy and spinal disc herniations as well as diabetics and have been linked recently to the use of statin drugs, often used to lower cholesterol. Chemotherapy has also been shown to cause neuropathy.
Used in conjunction with the both standing and seated vibrational therapy, Foothills Chiropractic is offering a very compelling option for conservative, non-surgical treatment of peripheral neuropathy in the Greenville area.
"The combination of infrared light therapy and cold laser therapy have given my patients a new lease on life, in many cases enabling their medical physician to reduce or completely eliminate the need for prescription pain medications," says Dr. Mike Geran, a chiropractic physician who focuses on nerve conditions and treatment of peripheral neuropathy. "I am very proud to be able to offer this unique combination of treatments which you will not typically see in any other office setting. It enables our office to treat a wider variety of conditions and effectively manage and actually improve the health of many of our neighbors suffering with peripheral neuropathy."
Foothills Chiropractic is located at 111 Fairview Pointe Drive in Simpsonville, SC and at 20 S. Poinsett Street in Travelers Rest, SC. Dr. Geran's Clinic is also a member of the "Neuropathy Treatment Centers of America. More information can be found at www.greenvilleneuropathy.com or www.neurotca.com.
