Neuropathy Treatment Without Medication
Written by Dr. Jill Althoff
Many neuropathy patients are prescribed gabapentin, Lyrica, or similar medications to manage nerve pain, but these don't treat the underlying nerve damage and often come with side effects like drowsiness, dizziness, or brain fog. At Althoff Wellness Clinic in Windsor CO and Cheyenne WY, care focuses on addressing the root cause of your nerve damage through drug-free, surgery-free treatment. The Initial Neuropathy Screening costs $47 and helps determine whether this approach is right for you.
If you've been on gabapentin, Lyrica, or a similar medication and it isn't giving you your life back, or the side effects feel almost as hard to live with as the neuropathy itself, you're not imagining it. These medications dull pain signals. They don't repair nerves. For a lot of patients, that means trading one problem for another — less pain, but also less clarity, more fatigue, and a body that doesn't quite feel like their own.
There is another path. Our approach doesn't ask you to choose between numbness from medication and pain without it. Through the R.E.P.A.I.R. framework, we look at what's actually driving your nerve damage — whether that's blood sugar, circulation, inflammation, or something else entirely — and build a plan around addressing it directly.
No equipment to purchase. No surprise costs. The Initial Neuropathy Screening costs $47, includes a consultation, thermography scan, and balance testing, and gives you a real, honest answer about whether this is something we can help with before you commit to anything more.
If you've been managing your neuropathy with medication alone and you're ready for a different conversation, we'd like to have it with you.
