A pinched nerve occurs when excessive pressure is placed on a nerve by surrounding tissues, such as bones, muscles, or tendons. This can result in symptoms like sharp pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the affected area. Pinched nerves can occur in various parts of the body, including the neck, back, or limbs, and are often caused by repetitive movements, poor posture, or conditions such as herniated discs or arthritis. Left untreated, a pinched nerve can lead to chronic discomfort and decreased mobility.

Chiropractors use spinal adjustments to correct misalignments and reduce pressure on the affected nerve, allowing it to heal and function properly. These adjustments can improve nerve communication, reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain. If a pinched nerve is causing you discomfort or limiting your mobility, schedule a consultation to explore how chiropractic adjustments can support your recovery and improve your overall health.
