In this Mind Over Masculinity episode, host Avik cuts through the noise on neuropathy—tingling, burning, numbness that robs mobility and confidence—and gets direct with Dr. Kurt Simons, a chiropractor and founder of Brookfield Disc Center (Wisconsin). They unpack why many men ignore nerve pain, why masking symptoms with medication isn’t a fix, and what a targeted, non-surgical plan can look like. You’ll hear how proper diagnosis, disciplined home protocols, and evidence-informed lifestyle shifts work together to reduce symptoms without jumping straight to surgery. If you’ve been “toughing it out,” this is the practical rethink your body’s been asking for.
About the guest :
Dr. Kurt Simons is a nationally recognized chiropractor and founder of Brookfield Disc Center in Wisconsin. With 25+ years of experience, he focuses on non-surgical spinal decompression and advanced, non-invasive approaches for disc issues and neuropathy. His clinic model pairs in-office care with structured at-home protocols to drive consistent results.
Key takeaways :
Ignoring neuropathy early signs (tingling, burning, numbness) makes recovery harder; get a clear diagnosis first.
Medications may blunt symptoms short-term; they don’t address root causes.
A two-part plan works best: clinic-based therapies plus daily home protocols for momentum and maintenance.
Home toolkit elements discussed: targeted nutrition, red-light therapy, vibration therapy, and a clinical-grade e-stim unit.
Consistency matters more than intensity: daily adherence predicts outcomes.
Disc issues can contribute to neuropathy; ruling in/out spinal drivers is part of a proper assessment.
Lifestyle shifts help nerve health: reduce added sugars and refined carbs; prioritize water; reconsider diet sodas and artificial sweeteners if they worsen your symptoms.
Results vary by age, fitness, severity, and compliance; measure progress over a 3-month horizon and iterate.
A 50%+ symptom reduction is a realistic win for many when protocols are followed.
Strength isn’t ignoring pain—it’s facing it intelligently and acting early.
