Diabetes can cause the following:
A dysfunctional insulin system, consistently high blood sugar levels, damaged peripheral nervous system, nerve damage, numbing, shooting, piercing pain in the damaged nerves e.g. hands, feet, arms, legs (peripheral neuropathy) are just some of the conditions resulting from diabetic neuropathy.
Research suggests that the core cause for diabetic neuropathy is blood sugar levels which are consistently high and remain so without coming down without the intervention of diabetic neuropathy related drugs and medications. The question is what means are available to lower blood sugar levels and here we see that there are many options.
Specialist doctors knowledgeable in the field of diabetes or diabetic neuropathy will initially encourage a change in lifestyle – perhaps the incorporation of a specific diet and exercise regime along with regular supervisions. Or perhaps they may suggest joining a club or support group specialising in the natural control of blood sugar levels through diet and exercise. There are occasions however when the diabetic condition is past its initial stages and too far gone for diet and fitness to make an impact alone. In these cases prescription medication will also be prescribed to diabetics. Unfortunately, because diabetes can be a progressive condition it can and does eventually lead to diabetic neuropathy – nerve damage – usually in the central extremities; e.g. hands, arms, feet, legs...
In such cases alongside support and advice from your doctor / physician the following methods have proven successful when it comes to curing peripheral diabetic neuropathy.
- TENS (transcutaneous electronic nerve stimulations) machines. These devices are intended to work on the core nerves that are damaged. The devices combat nerve damage by transferring electrical signals from the machine into the nerve through a current and pads (placed on the affected part of the body – usually nerve damage in feet or nerve damage in legs). The electrical current furthermore results in stimulation of the damaged nerve and the surrounding blood and tissue. Beware, not all TENS devices are the same. Some may only block the pain signal instead of actually working to repair the damaged nerve. Our research has found a device called ReBuilder Medical Treatment which is FDA approved (very important), has been proven to work through patients studies and whatsmore is actually recommended by doctors and physicians which really offers the final conviction that ReBuilder Medical Treatment could be the cure that many diabetic neuropathy sufferers are looking for.
- Alternative or additional therapies and treatments such as deep tissue massage (like a sports massage), acupuncture, reiki, reflexology, hypnosis and saunas, steam rooms etc.... have all claimed to help diabetic neuropathy sufferers relieve their pain.
- Diet and fitness has already been discussed earlier but suitable clothing, medical footwear, posture, balance etc...may all provide the necessary support to those who have diabetic neuropathy, these adjustments alongside the other two points will all help to relieve if not cure or stabilize diabetic neuropathy.
