Real Relief From Peripheral Neuropathy

Reduce Numbness, Burning & Tingling With Advanced Nerve Regeneration Therapy

Most patients who land on this page are dealing with the same fears:
“My feet feel numb or burning every day.”
“It’s getting worse and I don’t know why.”
“Medications aren’t helping. I need something that actually fixes the problem.”

Peripheral neuropathy doesn’t improve by itself.
But with the right combination of advanced nerve-stimulating therapies, you can dramatically improve symptoms — often within weeks.

At Vargas Foot Specialists, we use Shockwave (ESWT) + MLS Laser Therapy to stimulate nerve healing, reduce inflammation, and improve blood flow to damaged nerves.

What Peripheral Neuropathy Really Is

Neuropathy occurs when nerves in the feet become damaged or inflamed.
These nerves control sensation, balance, and muscle function — so even mild damage can disrupt daily life.

Most patients experience:

 

Burning or tingling

Numbness or “walking on cotton” feeling

Sharp, electric, or shooting pain

Cramping

Cold or hot sensations

Balance problems

Worsening symptoms at night

Without treatment, neuropathy often progresses.

Why Neuropathy Happens

There are many causes, but the most common include:

Diabetes or pre-diabetes

Poor circulation

Nerve compression

Inflammation

Foot/ankle injuries

Chemotherapya

Autoimmune disorders

Vitamin deficiencies

When nerves are deprived of oxygen, blood flow, or proper signaling, they begin to misfire or shut down.

Our Treatment Approach: Restore Nerve Function, Reduce Pain

Many neuropathy patients are told “there’s nothing to do but take medication.”
That’s outdated.

Medications (gabapentin, Lyrica, etc.) can dull symptoms but do not heal the nerves.

Our approach focuses on regenerating damaged nerves and improving their function, not just masking symptoms.

1. Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)

What it does:
Shockwave sends controlled sound pulses into the nerves and surrounding tissues to improve blood flow, stimulate healing factors, and promote nerve regeneration.

Why it works:
Neuropathy involves lack of circulation and oxygen to the nerves. Shockwave improves microvascular blood flow and supports the healing of damaged nerve fibers.

Benefits:

  • Improves nerve function
  • Reduces numbness and tingling
  • Reduces burning pain
  • Enhances circulation
  • Supports long-term nerve recovery

Most patients begin feeling improvement within 3–6 sessions.

2. MLS Laser Therapy

What it does:
MLS Laser uses synchronized light wavelengths to reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and increase cellular energy — essential for nerve repair.

Why it works:
Damaged nerves heal slowly. MLS speeds up the metabolic activity of nerve cells and reduces inflammation that compresses nerves.

Benefits:

  • Reduced tingling and burning
  • Improved sensation
  • Better temperature regulation
  • Decreased inflammation around nerves
  • Painless, safe, and no downtime

Studies show meaningful symptom improvement with consistent treatment.

3. Combined Therapy = Better Results

Using Shockwave + MLS Laser together enhances the body’s healing response:

  • Shockwave improves blood flow and nutrient delivery
  • MLS boosts cellular repair and reduces nerve inflammation

This combination helps nerves fire properly and reduces pain signals.

Why Our Approach Works Better Than Medication Alone

Medications:

  • Only mask symptoms
  • Do not improve nerve function
  • Lose effectiveness over time

Our approach:

  • Targets the root cause
  • Regenerates nerves
  • Improves circulation
  • Enhances long-term function
  • Reduces pain naturally

For many patients, this is the first time they’ve seen actual improvement, not just symptom control.

What to Expect From Treatment

Your neuropathy recovery plan typically includes:

1. 1. Full exam + nerve assessment

2. Shockwave sessions (weekly or biweekly)

3. MLS Laser therapy (1–2 times per week)

4. At-home support recommendations

5. Progress checks every 2–3 weeks

Many patients feel noticeable improvement in:

Sensation

Sleep quality

Balance

Walking comfort

Symptom intensity

Most patients experience meaningful changes within 4–6 weeks, with continued improvement over several months.

Don’t Wait — Neuropathy Gets Harder to Treat the Longer It’s Ignored

Neuropathy is progressive, meaning it gets worse over time if untreated.

Delaying treatment can lead to:

Permanent nerve damage

Severe burning pain

Increased numbness

Loss of balance

Higher fall risk

Difficulty walking
