Neuropathy Treatment
in Torrington, CT
If you have burning, tingling, numbness, or balance loss in your feet, you do not have to just live with it. At Maletta Pfeiffer we treat peripheral neuropathy with the NEUBIE foot bath and NeuFIT therapy, drug-free, at two Torrington locations.
What is peripheral neuropathy?
Peripheral neuropathy is damage to the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord, most often in the feet and hands. It is commonly caused by diabetes, chemotherapy, injury, or has no clear cause at all (idiopathic neuropathy).
The symptoms build slowly and are hard to ignore: burning or shooting pain, pins-and-needles tingling, numbness, weakness, and a loss of balance that makes walking feel unsteady. Left unaddressed, it raises the risk of falls and foot problems.
The frustrating part for most people is that the standard options, pills and creams, often only mask the symptoms. Our approach targets the nerves themselves.
How we treat neuropathy, drug-free
Two tools, one goal: wake up the nerves and muscles neuropathy has quieted, and get your circulation, comfort, and balance back.
The NEUBIE foot bath
Your feet rest in a water bath while the NEUBIE delivers a gentle direct current through the water to both feet at once. It stimulates circulation and re-activates the nerves and muscles neuropathy has shut down. Comfortable, about 20 minutes, no medication.
NeuFIT / NEUBIE therapy
Beyond the feet, NeuFIT electrical stimulation retrains the nervous system to re-engage muscles and improve movement, paired with targeted exercise so the gains hold. We have 8 NEUBIE-certified providers, more than any visible competitor in the area. Learn more about NeuFIT.
