LASER THERAPY FOR NEUROPATHY
Neuropathy can cause burning, tingling, numbness, and sharp pain, often in the hands or feet. It may be linked to diabetes, injury, or other health conditions. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) uses specific wavelengths of light to support tissue repair, improve circulation, and reduce inflammation. Treatment is gentle and noninvasive.
Key Insight:
For some individuals, laser therapy may help decrease pain and improve sensation over time.
