Neuralgia
Description
Neuralgia is a stabbing, burning and often severe pain due to an irritated or damaged nerve. The nerve may be anywhere in the body, and the damage may be caused by several things, including ageing, diseases such as diabetes, multiple sclerosis or an infection, such as shingles.
Treatment types
Targeted magneto light therapy.
Method of action
Magnetotherapy
Magnetotherapy promotes tissue regeneration and stimulates natural organic defences. It is believed magnotherapy produces its therapeutic effects by re-establishing order in a sector that is presumably in magnetic disorder, restoring regular cellular activity and increasing blood flow to provide an anti-inflammatory and anti-swelling effect. This then helps to relieve pressure on the nerves when this is the root cause, providing an overall analgesic effect.
Phototherapy
Blue and infrared light improve circulation in the skin and other parts of the body, bringing oxygen and nutrients to injured tissues to further promote healing, ease pain, relieve inflammation and protect against oxidative stress.
