Neuropathy Treatment in Macomb County
Neuropathy is the burning, tingling, numbness, or sharp nerve pain that happens when peripheral nerves are damaged or compressed. It can affect your hands, feet, legs, or arms, and it often gets worse at night or after long periods of sitting. At Total Health Systems, we treat neuropathy by looking past the symptom to find what's actually irritating the nerve—whether that's a spinal misalignment pressing on the nerve root, blood sugar dysregulation, vitamin deficiencies, or chronic inflammation. Our multi-disciplinary team coordinates chiropractic care, acupuncture, physical therapy, and functional medicine to relieve the pain and address the root cause so you can sleep, walk, and live without the constant pins-and-needles.
