Neuropathy and Nerve Pain

Neuropathy: Real Solutions

At Connecticut’s Best Acupuncture, we specialize in treating all types of neuropathy, including Peripheral Neuropathy, Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy, and Diabetic Neuropathy. We understand how frustrating and discouraging it can be to hear that the only options available are medications with limited effectiveness and that there is little hope for long-term relief. Many of our patients come to us feeling like they have exhausted every option—only to discover that real healing is possible.

Our approach goes far beyond acupuncture alone. We incorporate a range of advanced therapies designed to stimulate nerve regeneration, reduce inflammation, and improve circulation, addressing the root cause of neuropathy rather than just masking symptoms. Through our individualized treatment plans, we have helped countless patients regain feeling in their feet and hands, improve their mobility, and dramatically reduce their pain. In fact, many of our patients have called us “the last resort with the best results.” If you’ve been told there’s nothing more that can be done, we encourage you to reach out—because relief, healing, and renewed quality of life may be closer than you think.

Symptoms We Commonly See

Patients often come to us with:

• Tingling, numbness, or “pins and needles” sensations in the hands or feet
• Burning or “electric” pain, especially at night
• Poor balance or difficulty walking
• Sensation of walking on pebbles or glass
• Muscle weakness or heaviness in the legs
• Cold or hypersensitive feet and hands
• Loss of coordination or proprioception

These symptoms can slowly chip away at your confidence, independence, and peace of mind. Our goal is to stop the progression and restore healthy nerve function — safely and naturally.

Common Causes of Neuropathy and Nerve Pain

While neuropathy can be idiopathic (no clear cause), it’s frequently associated with:

• Diabetes or prediabetes
• Chemotherapy (chemo-induced peripheral neuropathy, or CIPN)
• Post-surgical or post-injury nerve damage
• Autoimmune disorders
• Spinal issues (disc degeneration, stenosis, nerve compression)
• Long-term use of certain medications
• Poor circulation or chronic inflammation

Regardless of the source, the common denominator is impaired nerve signaling and decreased circulation to peripheral tissues. That’s where we come in.

How We Help

Our clinic uses a targeted, evidence-informed approach to support nerve repair and reduce symptoms. Treatments are designed to:

• Improve blood flow to damaged or oxygen-deprived nerves
• Stimulate the body’s natural healing response in peripheral tissue
• Normalize overactive pain signals
• Reduce inflammation in the nerve sheath
• Improve foot/leg function, balance, and coordination
• Decrease the frequency and severity of burning, tingling, or numbness

📊 Clinical studies have shown that acupuncture can increase nerve conduction velocity and improve symptoms in patients with peripheral neuropathy — particularly when combined with circulation-enhancing techniques.

What Makes Our Approach Different

Unlike general care providers, neuropathy and nerve pain are the focus of what we do. Patients often come to us after exhausting medications like gabapentin, physical therapy, or topical creams — with minimal or short-lived results.

What we offer:

• Precise, nerve-targeted acupuncture protocols
• ATP Resonance Biotherapy® - a cutting edge technology, developed by NASA which can significantly improve outcomes
• Electrical stimulation therapy, when appropriate, to promote nerve reactivation
• Circulation support techniques to increase blood flow to the extremities
• Adjunctive therapies like gentle cupping or microcurrent for chronic cases
• Simple home recommendations to support progress between visits
• Regular progress monitoring, so you always know where you stand

This is not a one-size-fits-all model. We tailor every plan to your specific symptoms, severity, and goals.

What Patients Often Report

After beginning care, patients frequently notice:

• Less burning and tingling at night
• Improved sensation in the feet and toes
• Easier walking and better balance
• Fewer falls or stumbles
• Reduced reliance on medications
• A return to activities they thought they had lost for good

You Don’t Have to Accept "There's Nothing More We Can Do."

If you’ve been told your neuropathy is irreversible, or that your only option is to increase medication, you owe it to yourself to explore this path.
