Don’t Let Peripheral Neuropathy Numb Your Life

Non-Invasive Relief at Prospero Vascular & Interventional

Nerves on Edge? That’s Not the Vibe You’re Going For…

Let’s face it: occasional tingling or numbness—like when your foot falls asleep—usually passes without concern. But when those sensations become persistent, creeping into your hands, feet, or legs, it can signal something far more serious. Peripheral neuropathy is a condition caused by damage to the peripheral nerves, and it can turn everyday moments like walking, typing, or sleeping into painful, frustrating challenges.

If you’re in the Bay Area and experiencing symptoms like burning, tingling, or numbness, don’t wait for it to get worse. At Prospero Vascular and Interventional, we specialize in non-invasive, image-guided treatments to help you reclaim comfort and quality of life—without surgery or long recoveries.

Understanding Peripheral Neuropathy: When Nerves Misfire

Your peripheral nerves are the body’s communication lines—carrying signals between your brain, spinal cord, and limbs. When those nerves are damaged, signals become distorted, triggering sensations like pain, numbness, or weakness.

Common Causes of Peripheral Neuropathy Include:

Diabetes – The leading cause, where high blood sugar gradually damages nerves
Injury or Trauma – Accidents, surgeries, or repetitive stress
Vitamin Deficiencies – Especially low levels of B12 and other essential nutrients
Autoimmune Conditions – Such as lupus or Guillain-Barré syndrome
Infections – Like shingles or Lyme disease

When left untreated, neuropathy can progress—making daily activities difficult and even dangerous.

Signs You Shouldn’t Ignore

Wondering if what you’re feeling is more than just a passing quirk? Here are the common symptoms that suggest it’s time to seek medical evaluation:

✅ Tingling or “pins and needles” in hands, feet, or legs
✅ Burning or electric-shock-like pain, especially at night
✅ Numbness or reduced sensation
✅ Muscle weakness or unsteady walking
✅ Hypersensitivity—where even light touch is painful
✅ Balance issues or frequent tripping

These symptoms don’t just impact your body—they affect your independence, hobbies, and peace of mind.

The Real Impact: Life with peripheral neuropathy

Living with peripheral neuropathy can bring fears that go beyond discomfort:

Fear of falling or injury due to numb feet or weak legs
Disrupted sleep from nighttime pain or restlessness
Loss of independence if symptoms interfere with driving, cooking, or walking
Dependence on medications that offer temporary relief but come with side effects
Anxiety about surgery or invasive procedures that feel too extreme

That’s where Prospero Vascular can help—with minimally invasive options that address the root cause of your pain.

Our Approach: Non-Invasive Treatment That Works

At Prospero Vascular, we use advanced image-guided therapies to target nerve-related pain and improve nerve function—without surgery or hospital stays.

🔹 Nerve-Targeted Neuromodulation Therapy

A revolutionary option for patients with nerve pain.

Here’s how it works:

A tiny hollow needle is inserted through the skin in the midback.
Guided by real-time imaging, it’s directed to space in the spine just below the level from which the affected nerves originate.
A tiny long soft electrode is inserted through the needle and advanced, with image-guidance, to the target level.
The electrodes are attached to a very small generator, which emits signals through them to the target spinal level that neuromodulate, or block, the nerve signals that cause the troubling symptoms, thereby tricking the brain to not feel them.
The generator can then be taped to the skin to be used for a week as a trial, or implanted just under the skin in the back after a successful trial.
The signals sent by the generator can be adjusted and controlled via a mobile device at home, with guidance of an assigned industry clinical liaison.

This outpatient procedure:

Requires no general anesthesia
Has minimal recovery time
Offers long-term relief for many patients

What Recovery from peripheral neuropathy Looks Like

Most of our non-invasive treatments—especially spinal cord neuromodulation—require little downtime. Patients typically experience:

Mild soreness at the access site for 1–2 days
Symptom relief within a week, with ongoing improvements
No hospital stay and a quick return to daily activities

Whether it’s walking in your neighborhood, typing with ease, or sleeping through the night—our goal is to get you back to what matters, with fewer limitations.
