Neuromed Electroanalgesia at ChiroMed
Burning feet at bedtime. Hands that go numb holding a phone. A leg that tingles from the hip down and never quite settles. Most people arriving with nerve symptoms have already been offered gabapentin or duloxetine, taken it for a while, and disliked how it made them feel. Some were told nothing more could be done. Dr. Justin Bergin, DC takes a different route, and he is careful about what he promises. Neuromed electroanalgesia is one of the main tools inside [the disc and nerve rehabilitation programme at this practice](/disc-nerve-rehab/), and its job is your comfort and your function, not a headline.
This page sits under pain control clinic, the ChiroMed pain control clinic pillar.
What neuromed electroanalgesia actually does
Electroanalgesia is a drug-free treatment that delivers electrical stimulation through the skin to change how pain signals are carried and to support circulation in the treated area. At ChiroMed it is delivered on the Neuromed system. There are no needles, no prescription and no downtime afterward.
Nerve symptoms are difficult to treat because the tissue involved is slow, poorly supplied with blood, and often irritated at more than one point along its length. A foot can burn because of a metabolic problem in the small nerves themselves, because a nerve root is compressed in the low back, because the nerve is entrapped somewhere along its path, or because of a combination of all three. Treating only one of those and calling the job done is why so many people have already been through two or three providers before they get here. Electrical stimulation works on the signal and on the local environment. The broader family of transcutaneous electrical stimulation is reasonably well described in the literature: a clinical reference chapter on transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation reports moderate-certainty evidence for pain reduction during and immediately after treatment, with no serious adverse events, and positions it as an adjunct within a wider plan rather than as a stand-alone answer. That is exactly how it is used here, and we would rather tell you so than imply more. What that means in practice is a set of honest targets. Less burning at night. Fewer hours of tingling during the day. Better balance on a dark floor. Sleep that is not interrupted by your feet. Those are the things patients actually want back, they are measurable, and they are what your review point is set against. What it is not is a way to undo established nerve damage. Peripheral nerve damage that has been present for years is not undone by any therapy currently available, at this clinic or anywhere else, and a provider who tells you otherwise is selling something. What can genuinely change is your symptom load, your function, and how well you manage the underlying drivers alongside the doctor treating them.
At ChiroMed the device is Neuromed, named here on purpose: the category name covers several very different machines and you deserve to know which one is in the room.

Conditions we treat with it
Each of these has its own page, and each one links back up to this service. The examination decides which of them applies to you.
Why patients choose it
No prescription and no sedation
Nothing is added to your medication list and nothing makes you foggy in the afternoon. For patients already managing several prescriptions, that is frequently the deciding factor.
It targets the symptom you actually complain about
Burning, tingling and numbness are what interfere with sleep and balance. The plan is built around those, and they are what gets measured at your review.
It sits inside a wider nerve plan
Where testing shows the nerve root is also compressed at the spine, decompression runs alongside it. Where the tissue is irritable, cold laser supports it. One doctor, one plan, one set of records.
Honest framing from the first visit
You are told what the realistic targets are before you spend anything, and you are told what this treatment cannot do. That is rarer in this market than it should be.
Cost, insurance and financing
This is a self-pay service and we would rather say so on the page than at the desk. What it costs you depends on the plan the examination produces, not on a package chosen before anyone looked at you.
The one published price
Consultation, Exam, X-Rays (If Needed) & Report of Findings: Only $47
What moves the cost
- How many regions are being treated, for example both feet against one hand
- Whether decompression or laser runs alongside the Neuromed sessions
- The length of the course set at the report of findings
- Whether imaging is needed to check the nerve root
What a course includes
- Consultation with Dr. Justin Bergin, DC
- Sensory, reflex and balance examination
- X-rays if they are clinically indicated
- Report of findings with written targets and a review date
Payment: Neuromed electroanalgesia is self-pay at ChiroMed. Chiropractic care bills insurance; this line does not. Medicare coverage varies by plan and by service, and our front desk will tell you exactly what applies before you commit to anything. New patients start with the consultation, exam, X-rays if needed, and report of findings for $47. Payment plans are available for self-pay care. Ask the front desk which plan fits your course of care.
Why ChiroMed
Twenty-two years of practice, two Central Florida offices, and a doctor who will tell you what a treatment cannot do before he tells you what it can. Dr. Justin Bergin, DC named the Neuromed system on this page deliberately, because patients being treated for nerve symptoms are rarely told what is being used on them. The wider advantage is that nerve cases almost never have one cause: spinal decompression, cold laser, Omniwave shockwave, chiropractic care and the functional and metabolic side of the clinic all sit on one plan under one roof, so a case with three drivers gets treated for three rather than for the one your provider happens to sell. If your symptoms turn out to start at the spine as well as the foot, [the way disc and nerve cases are sequenced here](/disc-nerve-rehab/) is what changes your result.
Where you would be treated
Nerve plans mean regular visits, and both offices run the same service lineup. In Polk County, Suite 13 on S. Florida Avenue is reached easily from Highland City, Christina, Dixieland and Cleveland Heights, with the Polk Parkway taking most of the pain out of the drive. In the northern market, the Lady Lake office on North US-441 just above CR 466 serves Summerfield, Oxford, Wildwood, Fruitland Park and the wider Lake, Sumter and Marion county communities, and the parking sits level with the door for patients whose balance is part of the complaint.
In Lakeland that is 6595 Florida Ave S, Suite 13, Lakeland, serving Polk County. In the Villages market the office is at 929 US-441 #404, Lady Lake, serving Lake County, Sumter County, Marion County. Dr. Justin Bergin, DC performs the examination personally at both, 22 years into practice.

Compare your options
Real alternatives exist, including ones this practice does not perform. Here is the honest set.
| Criteria | Our approachNeuromed electroanalgesia | What it is | Typically considered when | Invasive? | Offered at ChiroMed? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Neuromed electroanalgesia | Electrical stimulation through the skin aimed at pain signalling and local circulation | Nerve pain, numbness or tingling where you want a drug-free option measured at a review point | No | Yes | |
| Spinal decompression | Cycled traction that lowers disc pressure and eases load on a nerve root | Testing shows the nerve is being compressed at the spine rather than only in the limb | No | Yes | |
| Low-level laser therapy | Light delivered into tissue to influence cellular activity and reduce pain | The treated area is irritable and needs a gentler input alongside the main plan | No | Yes | |
| Prescription nerve medication such as gabapentin or duloxetine | Drug therapy that alters how nerve pain signals are processed centrally | Symptoms are severe and a prescriber judges the trade-off in side effects acceptable | No | Not prescribed here. A legitimate option that belongs with your physician | |
| Nerve block or surgical decompression of a nerve | Injection near the nerve, or an operation to release the structure compressing it | A single confirmed compression point with measurable weakness that has failed conservative care | Yes | Not performed here. Appropriate when testing localises the problem to one structure that will not settle |
Two of these five are outside what this clinic does, and both are the right answer for some patients. Where your case needs them, you will be told rather than kept on a course of visits.
Is neuromed electroanalgesia right for someone like you?
Candidacy is decided at the examination, not on a web page. These are the general lines.
Likely a good candidate if
- Burning, tingling or numbness in the feet, legs, hands or arms
- You disliked how prescription nerve medication made you feel, or would rather avoid it
- Symptoms that disturb your sleep or make you unsteady in the dark
- Nerve pain that testing traces to an irritated nerve root as well as the limb
- You want honest targets and a review date rather than an open-ended package
We will point you elsewhere if
- You have an implanted pacemaker, defibrillator or neurostimulator
- You are pregnant
- There is rapidly progressing weakness, foot drop, or loss of bladder or bowel control
- You have an open wound, active infection or unexplained swelling in the area to be treated
- You have not had the underlying cause investigated, for example blood sugar or thyroid testing
When we’re not the right answer, we say so , and connect you with someone who is.
Your first visit
What to expect, step by step
You know the plan and the cost before anything begins.
-
01History and conversation
When it started, where it sits, what makes it worse at night, what you have already tried and what happened. Nerve cases need the long version, and the appointment is set up for it.
-
02Examination
Sensory and reflex testing, balance screening, and orthopaedic work on the spine to find out whether the nerve is also being compressed at the root. Imaging where it changes the plan.
- 03
Findings and honest targets
You are shown what was found, told what the plan aims at in plain words, and told what it does not aim at. The cost is on the table at this point, before anything is booked.
- 04
Treatment and a set review
Neuromed sessions run in the clinic, combined with whatever else the examination called for. Your symptoms are re-scored at a set date, and the plan continues, changes or closes on that evidence.
-
An adjustment that is not aimed at a specific finding is just noise. We treat what the exam and the X-ray tell us to treat.
“I have had sich a great experience seeing Dr. Bergin. When other offices have told me I just had muscle damage or the only thing they could do for me was give shots, he said he had others ways to manage my pain and numbness, along with improving mobility. And he was right! I feel so much better!”
“I have had pain in my right upper back quadrant by my shoulder blade for at least a year now and the doctors have been unsuccessful in making the pain go away. I came to Dr. Bergin looking for some help. Within 3 to 4 weeks. My pain in that area is completely gone.”
“Dr. Bergin is phenomenal. Chronic lower back issues led a different doctor to mention back surgery to me. That was not an option I wanted to entertain. After a consult with Dr. B, he was confident that he could help resolve my back issues. I’ve been seeing him weekly to resolve the issue, and I am so pleased with the results so far! More mobility, less pain, and a great customer experience.”
“I bless the day that Dr. Bergin started working on me. I have had long standing pain for so long. After just a few visits my pain left and I feel so good. He is very patient oriented and caring. I regard him highly.”
“Dr. Bergin was instrumental in relieving my back pain which I had for many years. The techniques he used on relieving my back pain were impressive. I been going to chiropractors for years and Dr. Bergin is the best.”

Neuromed Electroanalgesia questions
Tap a message for the honest answer. Call Lakeland (863) 940-3444
What is the most successful treatment for neuropathy?
There is no single winner, and be wary of any clinic that names one. Managing the underlying driver comes first, usually blood sugar, thyroid, B12, alcohol intake or a medication side effect, and that work belongs with your physician. On top of that, the therapies with the most support are drug-free approaches aimed at symptoms and function, movement and balance work, and prescription medication where a prescriber judges it worthwhile. Our plans combine electroanalgesia with the rest of the clinic, and we measure symptoms at a set review date rather than promising an outcome.
the clinic teamWhere is the best place to get treatment for neuropathy?
Look for three things rather than a brand. First, a provider who insists the underlying cause has been investigated and will tell you what to ask your physician for. Second, written targets in plain language, symptoms and function rather than vague improvement, with a date when they get re-scored. Third, a clear price and no pressure to buy a long package on the first visit. A clinic that does all three is worth your time whether or not it is this one.
the clinic teamDoes Medicare cover neuropathy treatment?
Coverage varies by plan and by service, and our front desk will tell you exactly what applies before you commit to anything. Electroanalgesia at this clinic is self-pay, and we say so plainly so nobody is surprised at the desk. Payment plans are available for self-pay care, and the front desk will tell you which plan fits the course of care you have been offered.
the clinic teamCan diabetic neuropathy be treated without medication?
Symptoms can often be managed without adding a prescription, and many patients come to us precisely because they disliked how nerve medication made them feel. What does not change is that blood sugar control remains the central task, and that stays with the physician managing your diabetes. Drug-free care here targets the burning, the tingling, the balance and the sleep. It is a partner to your medical management rather than a substitute for it.
the clinic teamDo I need a referral, or should I see a neurologist?
No referral is needed to be examined here, and you can book directly at either office. A neurologist is the right call when there is progressive weakness, when symptoms are spreading quickly, when they are markedly asymmetric, or when the cause has not been identified after a proper workup. Those are the cases we refer rather than treat, and Dr. Bergin will say so at the first visit instead of starting a plan.
the clinic teamWhat do the Japanese do for neuropathy?
This question usually comes from articles about acupuncture, mecobalamin, a form of vitamin B12 widely prescribed in Japan, and careful foot care. The honest summary is that B12 matters a great deal when a deficiency is the driver and much less when it is not, that acupuncture has mixed evidence for nerve pain, and that daily foot care genuinely protects a numb foot from injury. None of it is a hidden answer being withheld from American patients, which is what the framing of the question tends to imply.
