Improving a patient’s daily life is a regular occurrence at Aligned Health & Wellness, as Drs. Jessica and Joshua Katz have devoted their popular practice to those suffering the effects of peripheral neuropathy.
Due to increasing demand since they opened in 2007, and the need for expansion, they brought highly qualified doctors Ronald Adams and Mark Gallant on board – each with years of experience treating neurological problems.
Aligned Health & Wellness utilizes evidence-based techniques to alleviate the discomfort of neuropathy without medication or surgery. Their customized treatment plans are designed to identify the root cause of a patient’s symptoms – which can include numbness, tingling, burning or itching of the hands and feet, muscle spasms, cramping, loss of coordination and dizziness, shooting or stabbing pains at night, and hot or cold sensations or color changes in your extremities.
One of the ways Dr. Joshua and Dr. Jessica share their unique approach for treating peripheral neuropathy patients is through their popular “lunch-and-learn” educational seminars, which are held on most Tuesdays at the Olive Garden restaurant located at 170 Hanes Mall Circle in Winston-Salem.
For current patient Mischelle Profit, the decision to attend one of those seminars has proven to be life changing. Sixty-six year old Mischelle was experiencing tingling in her feet, along with numbness in both her feet and hands.
“I initially attended the lunch-and-learn event simply out of curiosity,” shares Mischelle, who has seen impressive results in a little less than one year. She does home-based care, but regularly checks in with the practice every 90 days.
By the time she scheduled her first visit to the office after learning about potential treatments, Mischelle and her husband still felt very curious about this unique treatment as well as the entire experience. “But Dr. Joshua Katz quickly made a believer out of me – and my husband!” she adds. Both were impressed with the techniques involved in the practice’s neuropathy protocol and with how personable the staff is throughout every stage of treatment.
“You leave their office really feeling like they want to help you,” Mischelle shares. Despite being in her mid-60s, Mischelle has always seen herself as an active and determined person. At the age of 49, she founded the Christian non-profit Women of Wisdom (W.O.W.), a group of women invested in the holistic well being of diverse women and girls through an empowering network system (wowwomenofwisdom.org). That’s not a commitment that allows for slowing down her daily schedule or her commitments.
When asked about her neuropathy symptoms and the quest for a treatment she could totally trust, Mischelle was quick to declare, “I can’t stop now!”
That’s the beauty of the mission at Aligned Health & Wellness – bringing patients back to the activities and daily routines they cherish and enjoying their lives to the fullest without the interruption of typical peripheral neuropathy symptoms.
