In the last year, a tremendous number of clients age 45-85 have come in with neuropathy symptoms: nerve damage causing pain, numbness, tingling, and/or weakness. Many experience a tingling sensation in their feet and toes, and have found minimal relief despite consulting doctors. Causes range from the side effects of chemotherapy to infection to unknown sources.
In March, a client reached out with alarming news. As a 50 year-old man in excellent health, he was shocked to find his body debilitated and non-functional. In just a few days, he went from highly active to unable to walk.

Doctors stated that the myelin sheaths on his nerves were degenerating due to a recent infection. After nearly a week in the hospital, he was released with no treatment protocol other than rest. They expected basic functions to return in 8 weeks and a full recovery in 6 months.
He was in a state of shock and despair. 'Waiting" to feel better went against his nature.
