Peripheral Neuropathy
Supporting Nerve Health and Function
Overview
Peripheral neuropathy occurs when nerves outside the brain and spinal cord become damaged, producing numbness, tingling, burning pain, and weakness — most commonly in the hands and feet. Causes may include diabetes, autoimmune conditions, infections, toxin exposure, nutritional deficiencies, or idiopathic factors. At Blue Root Health, we address the underlying contributors while supporting nerve health and reducing symptoms through individualized integrative care.
