Spiritual Healing For Peripheral Neuropathy

Spiritual healing to connect mind, body, and spirit


Peripheral neuropathy describes the damage to the nervous system, the network of nerves that sends and receives messages to the spinal chord, the brain and all other parts of the body. Peripheral neuropathy results from various causes, such diverse immune disorders, car accidents, cancers or tumors. Consulting with a doctor can help you understand treat it, while spiritual healing can help to alleviate physical discomfort.


Chinese Acupuncture


Acupuncture is an ancient Asian treatment philosophy. Chinese acupuncture, based on Chinese medicine, teaches that peripheral neuropathology is caused by obstruction of the flow of chi, or energy, in the limbs and body, stemming from disharmony and imbalance in the body, both physical and emotional.


Acupuncture treats each individual with a specific plan to open these channels of energy. When you discuss your symptoms with your acupuncturist, he will develop a strategy for creating energetic flow within your body.


Each relaxing treatment will be conducted by the painless insertion of acupuncture needles at key energetic locations for twenty to thirty minutes. At the end of the session, your acupuncturist will recommend herbs or tinctures to maintain the open channels and reconstruct strength within the energy flow of your body.


Reiki


Reiki is an energy-healing practice that enhances body energy, balance and flow. This type of healing is similar to the principles of acupuncture, in that it addresses the flow of chi, yet different in that practitioners use their hands to apply light touch to the clothed body of their clients. This type of healing also addresses all aspects of the patient's energy blockage to re-establish mind, body and spirit equilibrium through specific points on the body that correspond to chakras, or energy hubs. Many patients notice healing and physical relaxation.


Yoga


Yoga is a deep and spiritual movement-based self-healing practice. The exercise is practiced to open the chakras, or spiritual channels, to create blood circulation and balance of the heart, mind and soul. Using yoga as a means to heal peripheral neuropathy is a proactive method of cultivating self-healing. While any yoga school or training would be beneficial in opening communication in nerve networks, Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy Programs are specially designed as spiritually healing for many conditions, especially for peripheral neuropathy.
