Laser Therapy for Joint Pain & Arthritis in Naples
June 18, 2026Non-Surgical Knee Pain Relief in Naples, FL
June 18, 2026Peripheral neuropathy — burning, tingling, or numbness usually starting in the feet and hands — can be eased with non-surgical Class IV laser therapy. In a randomized controlled trial, low-level laser therapy improved neuropathy-related pain and sensory outcomes compared with sham treatment. At ReliefNow Laser Naples, Dr. Marc Browner helps Naples and Collier County patients regain comfort and steadiness without added medication.
Neuropathy is common in an older, active community like Naples, and diabetes is its most frequent cause. It tends to start in the longest nerves — the toes and feet — bringing numbness, prickling, or burning that can affect balance and sleep.
What are the warning signs?
Gradual numbness, tingling, or burning beginning in the feet or hands, sometimes with sharp or electric-like pain or sensitivity to touch. Because it affects balance, it also raises fall risk — worth taking seriously.
Is this neuropathy or a pinched nerve?
Neuropathy is nerve damage, usually affecting both feet or both hands in a symmetric pattern. Pain that shoots down one leg from the lower back is more likely nerve compression — sciatica — which is a different problem with different treatment. A proper exam tells them apart.
What does the research on laser say?
A randomized controlled trial found laser therapy improved diabetic neuropathy pain and sensorimotor measures versus sham; reviews are encouraging while noting that larger, rigorous trials are still needed. Dr. Browner uses it as one drug-free part of a broader plan — consistent with his long-standing emphasis on promoting natural healing over medication.
