Neuropathy + Pain Relief & Balance™
Diabetic neuropathy is one of the most common and devastating complications of diabetes, often leading to chronic pain, falls, ulcers, and amputations if left undetected. The Neuropathy + Pain Relief & Balance™ program was designed to change that. By combining the Diabetic Neuropathy Device™ (DND) for small and large fiber testing, NeuroMed Electroanalgesia Therapy for drug-free pain relief that is billable per treatment, and Biofeedback Balance Testing and Training for fall risk management, providers gain a turnkey solution that detects earlier, treats sooner, and preserves patient mobility and independence. For patients with diabetes, neuropathy, or a history of falls, a cognitive assessment may also be recommended as medically necessary to further reduce risk. With CMS billable assessments and reimbursable therapies, this program not only protects patients but also strengthens clinics with sustainable revenue and streamlined workflows.

Neuropathy Assessments & Therapies
Neuropathy Assessments & Therapies
People with diabetes are living longer, healthier lives because of advances in early detection screening and timely intervention. Yet too often, preventable complications still arise simply because the right tools are not being used. Outdated methods like tuning forks (1711) and monofilaments (1938) remain common in exams, but they are subjective and imprecise, missing many cases of neuropathy until it is too late. The result is delayed diagnoses, untreated balance dysfunction, and preventable outcomes such as falls, ulcers, and amputations.
Our Neuropathy + Pain Relief & Balance™ program changes this by bringing together the most advanced tools available today into a single, turnkey solution for providers.
At the cornerstone is the Diabetic Neuropathy Device™ (DND), the only FDA-registered neuropathy tool that delivers two reimbursable tests in under three minutes by measuring both small fiber (temperature) and large fiber (vibration) nerve function. Detecting both types of nerve damage is critical, since large fiber neuropathy often goes unnoticed with conventional testing yet is the leading driver of diabetes-related amputations.
For patients already living with neuropathy pain, we integrate NeuroMed Electroanalgesia Therapy, a proven, drug-free treatment that uses high-frequency electrotherapy to reduce pain, improve function, and restore quality of life without dependence on medications.
The program combines Biofeedback Balance Testing and Training with AI-powered motion sensors, enabling providers to assess fall risk, measure gait symmetry, balance deviation, motor response, and joint mobility in minutes. These objective insights replace guesswork with quantifiable results, supporting reimbursable in-clinic therapy sessions or remote biofeedback training that help patients improve stability and mobility over time. For individuals with diabetes and neuropathy—who face heightened fall risk and often require closer monitoring—a cognitive assessment may also be recommended, particularly for those with a history of falls, ensuring providers can launch targeted care plans that reduce risks and improve outcomes.
Lastly we include NutriNerve® by world renown Dr. Aaron Vinik MD PhD, as an ongoing all-natural antioxidant supplement for all nerves, representing the best that scientific thinking can offer for nerve health. Backed by his clinical studies on neuropathy and inclusion in his treatments, NutriNerve® represents the highest standard of scientific thinking in nutritional support for continued therapies as a monthly maintenance.
Together, these tools support:
CMS billable assessments and reimbursable diagnostics for neuropathy, fall risk, and gait training
Peripheral neuropathy testing with higher sensitivity than monofilaments or tuning forks
Turnkey diabetes care programs that include both in-clinic and remote therapy
Seamless integration of cognitive assessments, PAD screening, and cardiovascular risk evaluation
Unlike outdated methods, these systems deliver repeatable, quantifiable results and real-time feedback to guide therapy, improving outcomes while strengthening provider efficiency and revenue.
At Diabetes Testing Centers™ (DTC), we have built these technologies into our turnkey Chronic Care Programs® because they represent not just an upgrade, but the future of preventive medicine. Our goal is to help providers detect, treat, and manage neuropathy earlier, preserve patient mobility and independence, and keep care and revenue in-house. Every provider should have access to these tools—because every patient deserves better outcomes and more years without preventable complications.
Diabetic Neuropathy Accounts for More Hospitalizations Than All Other Diabetic Complications Combined...

The Best Supplement that Scientific Thinking Can Offer for Nerve Health.
by Dr. Aaron Vinik MD PhD
People with diabetes are living longer and healthier lives with fewer complications because of technological advances, earlier interventions, and, in some cases, all-natural supplements like Dr. A. Vinik MD PhD nerve health supplements.
NutriNerve® is a proprietary formula created by the renowned Endocrinologist Dr. Aaron Vinik MD PhD. After many decades of scientific research in diabetic neuropathy, Dr. Vinik demonstrated that damaged nerves may be regenerated with the proper nutrients.
