Chemotherapy Neuropathy Responds Exceptionally Well To NeuropathyDR Care

This lady is beating cancer with her oncologists help.

Unfortunately, recent Chemotherapy Sessions aggravated her peripheral neuropathy,
even though she was very diligent with her ReBuilder home care.

When I examined her 2 weeks ago, her feet were once again Ice Cold she was sleepless and just miserable.

Spinal and hip/leg movements were stiff and painful again. I had seen this on a couple other cases, and been able to remedy the relapse quickly.

Specifically, changing some topical preps and adding back manual therapy turned her right around in just 5 sessions.

This and similar cases supports the role of the overall function of the back and muscles in
Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy.

This also helps explain why home care alone is too often not enough in flare-ups

Agent Orange & Other Factors in Peripheral Neuropathy

We recently discharged a veteran serviceman with 40% improvement in his PN Symptoms
after completing 5 weeks of intensive in-office care. His history included Agent Orange exposure, and unfortunately lymphoma.
He was recently post-chemotherapy.

After 3.5 weeks of our in-office care, he was able to stop wearing lidocaine patches, and shortly thereafter wasable to reduce his gabapentin (Neurontin) significantly. He also cut down pain meds substantially.

His care was intensive, trying different manual therapies, component dietary supplements and modifications along the way, topical supplements, various neurostimulators supplied by ReBuilder(R) Medical and variations of conductive media, until the right combination was achieved.

He was discharged to follow-up care after just 5 weeks!
