Laser light
Infrared pads are placed around the lower legs and feet while you relax on a table for 20 minutes.
Laser Neuropathy
Laser treatment for painful neuropathy
Whether it comes from diabetes, cancer treatment or an unknown cause, painful neuropathy in the legs and feet can take over your life. Our program combines laser light, whole body vibration and targeted B vitamins.
Why Laser
Helping the nerves themselves, not just the pain
Pain medications and anti-seizure drugs like Lyrica or gabapentin can sometimes help, but they come with a long list of side effects and do nothing to make your nerves work better.
Decades of research show laser light can increase blood flow to an area and reduce inflammation. Used on the nerves of the legs and feet, it has the potential to improve how those nerves fire by stimulating healing and calming inflammation. It is painless, has no downtime, and benefits are usually seen in as few as 6 visits.
- Painless and non-invasive
- No downtime
- Whole body vibration included
The Program
Three parts working together
Results vary. On average, clients notice a benefit after 6–8 treatments.
Whole body vibration
Ten minutes on a vibrating platform increases blood flow into the legs to help “wake up” the nerves.
B12, B6 and folic acid
A high-quality supplement with the right forms of these nerve vitamins supports the healing process.
Laser Light
Enter laser light for painful diabetic neuropathy
What if you could actually do something to make your nerves healthier and happier — safely and without side effects? With decades of research behind it, we know laser can increase blood flow to an area and reduce inflammation. Used on the nerves of your legs and feet, it has the potential to improve the way those nerves fire by stimulating healing and reducing inflammation.
- Painless and safe
- Research supports it
- No downtime
- Benefits can usually be seen in as few as 6 visits
Whole Body Vibration
Add in the benefits of whole body vibration
Anything that improves blood flow to the nerves helps give them the nutrients to heal and function better. While whole body vibration for painful neuropathy is relatively new, our office has been using it for many years.
Whole body vibration is a simple procedure: you stand on a platform that vibrates at specific frequencies. It sounds basic, but the experience is very unique.
- Benefits seen in patients with painful diabetic neuropathy
- Benefits also seen in balance, strength and blood sugar levels in diabetic neuropathy
- Benefits seen in cancer-treatment-related painful neuropathy

But Wait! There's More!
The B vitamins your nerves depend on
Vitamins B12, B6 and folic acid play a major role in how your nervous system and nerves work. Simply taking a supplement with these vitamins won't likely solve neuropathy on its own, but they definitely play a role in the healing process.
Unfortunately, there are major quality issues with many B-vitamin supplements — the wrong type of B12 could actually make things worse. That's why we combine laser and whole body vibration with the highest-quality B12, B6 and folic acid supplement, to do everything we can for the health of your nerves.

Common Questions
Please look these over before calling to schedule — most first-visit questions are answered here.
Completely non-invasive. Light therapy has long been used to calm inflammation and speed healing. Oval-shaped pads with infrared lights are placed around and on the lower legs and feet while you relax on a massage table in a dimly lit room.
Most cases of neuropathy respond to our program, including neuropathy from cancer treatment and diabetic neuropathy. Idiopathic neuropathy (no identified cause) and leg pain caused by arthritis in the lower spine (neurogenic claudication) may not respond as well. If you're not sure what type you have, we recommend a full evaluation with one of our chiropractic physicians before starting a package (additional cost).
No consultation is necessary. Almost anyone can be treated, except people currently undergoing chemotherapy or radiation, and anyone with an open wound in the treatment area. Your laser technician will go over treatment and answer questions at your first appointment.
On average, our laser clients see a benefit after 6–8 treatments, although results will vary.
Everyone responds differently. Most clients begin to feel results after 3–4 treatments, and 4–6 may give the result you want; more can be purchased for further benefit. Expect to come in twice a week for best results.
Allow 1 hour for your first visit and 40 minutes for later visits: 20 minutes of laser and 10 minutes of whole body vibration.
You stand on a platform that vibrates at specific frequencies for 10 minutes. It stimulates the lymphatic system and increases blood flow into your legs to help wake up the nerves.
Nothing is needed beforehand. Arrive on time in clothing that allows easy access to your lower legs and feet. Afterwards you can resume normal activity. No special diet is required, but any improvement to your diet will likely help.
No. Our program is supportive and does not replace medical management of diabetes or prescribed medication.
We schedule laser Monday – Friday, 10:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. We take lunch from 1:00 – 2:00 p.m.
