What Sanexas electroanalgesia is
Sanexas is an electroanalgesia therapy: a device delivers electrical stimulation to the affected area, aimed at helping manage chronic nerve-related pain symptoms. It's non-surgical and drug-free. It's important to be precise about what Sanexas does: it's offered to ease symptoms like burning, tingling, or discomfort, not to reverse or cure the underlying nerve damage. It is not FDA-approved to treat or reverse neuropathy, and it doesn't replace ongoing medical management of any underlying condition like diabetes.
What it treats
Sanexas is our primary option for managing symptoms of:
- Peripheral neuropathy: burning, tingling, or numbness, most often in the feet or hands
A provider evaluation determines whether Sanexas is a reasonable option for you, and ongoing management of any underlying condition contributing to your neuropathy remains essential alongside it.
What to expect
We start with an evaluation of your symptoms and any underlying diagnosis, such as diabetes. If Sanexas is a reasonable option, a typical series involves multiple sessions where the device is applied to the affected area; most patients find the sensation tolerable, described as a tingling or buzzing. We set honest expectations about what a series may and may not do for your symptoms before you start, and results vary by person.
