Neuropathy Treatment in Itasca & Elk Grove Village, IL

Find the Cause. Fix the Nerve. Get Your Life Back.

If you’re dealing with burning, tingling, numbness, or pain in your feet, you already know how frustrating and limiting it can be.

What many people are never told is that neuropathy is rarely just a foot problem.

At Quest Chiropractic & Acupuncture, Dr. Meeks focuses on identifying and correcting the true cause of nerve irritation, helping patients regain comfort, stability, and confidence through natural, non-invasive care.

Why Neuropathy Keeps Coming Back

The nerves that control your feet begin in the lower back and travel through the hips, thighs, knees, and calves before reaching the feet. Along this pathway, nerves can become affected by:

• Compression in the lower back
• Irritation in the hips or legs
• Restriction from tight muscles or scar tissue
• Poor circulation

This is why medications and local treatments often fail. They may address symptoms, but they do not always address where the problem is actually coming from.

Dr. Meeks’ Approach to Neuropathy Care

Dr. Eldon Meeks has spent more than 20 years helping patients with neuropathy by focusing on one key principle: identify where the nerve is being affected and correct it.

At Quest Chiropractic & Acupuncture, we perform a precise, step-by-step evaluation to determine:

• Where the nerve is being compressed or irritated
• How severe the condition may be
• What combination of therapies may produce the best result

This approach is built on experience, precision, and patient-centered care.

Every treatment plan is customized to your condition, your goals, and your body.

What Is Peripheral Neuropathy?

Peripheral neuropathy occurs when nerves outside the brain and spinal cord become damaged or irritated. This can disrupt communication between the brain and body and may lead to:

• Pain
• Numbness
• Weakness
• Loss of coordination

It most commonly affects the feet and legs, but the origin of the problem is often higher in the body.

Common Neuropathy Symptoms We See

• Numbness or tingling in the feet
• Burning or electric-like pain
• Sensitivity to touch
• Weakness or instability
• Balance problems
• A feeling like you are wearing socks when barefoot
• Symptoms that worsen at night

Common Causes of Neuropathy

• Diabetes
• Spinal misalignment or nerve compression
• Herniated or degenerative discs
• Poor circulation
• Chronic inflammation
• Vitamin deficiencies
• Chemotherapy or toxin exposure
• Injury or repetitive stress

In many cases, more than one factor is involved, which is why a comprehensive approach matters.
