Does Treatment for Neuropathy Pain Have to Involve Prescription Drugs?
ABSOLUTELY NOT!
Treating a problem by masking the symptoms has never been a viable long term solution. Previous treatment options for peripheral neuropathy have been a small handful of medications. This type of pain relief is temporary. Often these treatments lead to even more health problems, or worse yet—addiction. So many people innocently fall into abusing prescription pain pills while initially using them to alleviate the pain. Many patients have been frustrated by traditional care, only to find their symptoms getting worse. It is time to look into a solution to your pain that does not involve medication.
Peripheral Neuropathy Explained
Peripheral Neuropathy occurs when nerves in the extremities are damaged or destroyed. Like static on a telephone line, this interrupts the normal communication between the brain and the skin, muscles and other parts of the body. This condition predominantly affects the peripheral limbs (legs, feet, arms, and hands).
Diabetes is one potential cause of peripheral neuropathy, as uncontrolled sugar levels can damage your nerves. Some other causes of neuropathy may include: reduced blood flow, hereditary disorders, inflammation, vitamin deficiencies, and certain medications.

- Dr. Darl D. Albrecht - Dr. Seth Albrecht
There are many symptoms of peripheral neuropathy, which is essentially damage to the peripheral nerve system. Some neuropathy sufferers describe it as wearing an invisible sock, pins and needles, burning pain, or extreme electric-like sensitivity to touch. Others report the sensation of walking on broken glass or thumbtacks.
Neuropathy May Contribute to Emotional Stress and Depression.
Many people suffering with pain don’t realize that the symptoms could be due to peripheral neuropathy. It is a condition that can be misdiagnosed or ignored until it is unbearable. This can affect all aspects of your life and may even cause emotional stress or depression.
The Solution: Non-Surgical, Lasting Neuropathy Pain Treatment
At Albrecht Chiropractic and West Michigan Spinal Decompression we have developed a drug-free program utilizing multiple therapies to relieve your symptoms of peripheral neuropathy. The foundation of this highly successful treatment regimen is Light therapy called HealthLight. The HealthLight device consists of boot and calf pads that contain more than 250 red and infrared diodes. Light energy from the diodes increases circulation, speeds up cellular energy production, and draws water, oxygen and nutrients to the damaged area. Treatments are painless and gentle as the light is absorbed by the cells beneath the skin.
This creates an optimal environment that helps reduce pain, inflammation, burning, tingling and numbness, and actually improves the ability to feel sensations.
The Whole Program
In addition to the HealthLight, our program also incorporates several other modalities to improve nerve function, some of which include vibration therapy, balance training, and soft tissue mobilization. We also utilize nutritional support, when necessary, to help address vitamin deficiencies and improve circulation. With this multi faceted approach, we are able to customize the program to your individual needs and achieve the most effective results in relieving your symptoms of peripheral neuropathy.

Not All Neuropathy Treatments Are Created Equal.
There are many types of neuropathy treatments available today. Do not confuse this treatment with a common TENS device that is designed to temporarily block nerve signals. In fact, it is just the opposite – it works to improve nerve function.
Are You a Candidate for our Peripheral Neuropathy Program?
Patients come to us with all types of peripheral neuropathy. The potential causes are many and sometimes there is no clear risk factor for neuropathy. Regardless, our first step is to evaluate your specific case to determine if it is a type of peripheral neuropathy we can help. If so, the prognosis is generally favorable and treatment time is predictable. Your neuropathy pain may be significantly reduced or possibly eliminated without serious side effects or potential dependency on medication in as little as six weeks.
No Obligation Visit
At Albrecht Chiropractic and West Michigan Spinal Decompression, we are committed to getting you well and putting your life back on track again. So that you can learn more about our facility and our technically advanced procedures, we are offering a no obligation consultation and evaluation. Call today to schedule an appointment to see if you are a candidate for this procedure. We look forward to meeting you! - Dr. Darl D. Albrecht - Dr. Seth Albrecht.
NEUROPATHY FACTS
• More than 100 types of peripheral neuropathy have been identified, each with its own symptoms and prognosis. • Peripheral neuropathy may be either inherited or acquired through disease processes or trauma. In many cases, however, a specific cause cannot be identified.
• Peripheral nerves have the ability to regenerate axons, as long as the nerve cell itself has not died. Source: National Institutes of Health (NIH)

Will the Internet kill your free community paper?
Will the Internet kill your free community paper? Did instant coffee kill coffee? Did instant coffee kill coffee? New technologies change many things. But not everything. You may tweet, blog, surf, shop, or search online but you continue to read your free community paper. You just proved it. Readership of free community papers is now higher than paid daily papers, and continues to grow. Rather than being replaced by “instant” media, your local free community paper has become an important part of our neighborhood. The reason, which sometimes is not heard because of all the noise about the Internet, is pretty obvious: your free community paper does what the Internet doesn’t. We promote connections at a local level. Free papers join readers and advertisers in ways digital media don’t. In fact, the local content and power of your free paper makes advertising even more effective. We are the number one medium for driving purchases. That’s important in every product category.

“STANDING IN FOR JESUS”
By Rev. Dan Minor
-
AGE 81 - PLAINWELL, MI
revdminor1945@gmail.com _____________________________________
“You are the light of the world…” Matthew 5:14
Some years ago a United Methodist pastor in Texas told a beautiful story about a hospital visit he had made. He went to visit a young girl who was a member of his church and critically ill. She had been in a coma for several days and her mother stayed at her bedside constantly. The pastor convinced her to take a short break while he stayed with her daughter.
While her mother was out of the room, she suddenly came out her coma, opened her eyes and began talking to the pastor. The pastor called her by name and said to her, “I’m right here.” She said: “Do you love me?” Her pastor patted her hand and said, “Oh yes! I do love you.” Moments later her mother returned and was so happy her daughter was awake and said “This is the moment we have all been waiting for.”
Her daughter told her mother about a dream that she had. “I dreamed Jesus came right into my room and stood by my bedside. I asked him if he loved me. He patted my hand and said, ‘Oh yes, I do love you.’” The girl was so happy that Jesus stood by her bedside and told her he loved her.
The pastor just stood there and listened. He did not say a word but realized that the girl had mistaken him for Jesus. When he returned home that evening, he said to his wife, “You will never believe who I stood in for today!!”
Isn’t this our role as believers? To stand in for Jesus? Those early bands of disciples were taught that Jesus is the light of the world. Imagine their surprise, in the Sermon on the Mount, when Jesus said to them, “You are the light of the world!”
Apostle Paul said the same thing in another way, “Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:24-27). It is truly an amazing statement and humbling truth to consider that we are His Light, His vessel, His Body on earth and ambassadors for God’s Kingdom.
Every time we stand for truth…every time we fill a need…every time we offer love and encouragement to others…every time we lead someone to Christ…every time we do the Christlike thing, we are standing in for Jesus! Prayer: Dear Lord, fill us with Your love and use us as You will for Your glory. Amen.

The house we built and made our home is just a house again because I'm here all alone. The sounds of life, laughter and fun used to be here, now there is none.
When you left me here my tears began and I don't think they will ever end.
I think of you every day since you went away, the sadness is here, the emptiness to stay.
Gordon MANEKE AGE 91 - PORTAGE, MI
My tears are flowing, my heart is breaking.
I can hardly breathe knowing I can't hold you close anymore.
Formerly of Allegan
I'll love and miss you until we meet again. It will be a new beginning without end. I'm waiting for that day.
All my love, forever and always, Joyce

Check out ...Travis
Travis is a friendly doggy and loves going out for a walk or just spending time with people. He is pretty easy going, but can get the zoomies and be a silly guy. Travis will sit and be patient for treats, but you should know he can be a treat snob. Travis could join a home with a cat that is used to living with a large dog; a home with another dog*; and kids! Because Travis sometimes will jump up looking for attention, we recommend children in his forever home are 10 years old and up, but homes with children a bit younger could be a great fit too. Travis is 2 years old and weighs 69 pounds. Unfortunately, Travis did test positive for heartworms. He has started the slow kill treatment process and is doing well. Adopters will need to complete his treatment. Do not let treatment deter you from adopting a wonderful dog! Travis will truly make an awesome family dog. To apply to adopt Travis - please visit wishbonepetrescue.org. and fill out an application to get the process started. *If your home already has a dog, a meet and greet will be set up to make sure the dogs are a good match.
