Nerve Pain

Chiropractors provide effective treatment and advice on all nerve pain problems, including trapped nerves, sciatica, nerve pain in the lower back, upper back, shoulders and neck.

Nerve pain is also known as neuralgia or neuropathic pain and is caused by tightness or inflammation which puts pressure on the nerve. When you have a pinched nerve, you can experience persistent symptoms, including pain, muscle weakness, and numbness or tingling. In most situations, a pinched nerve is caused by spinal alignment issues related to the tissues of the body. This could include the body’s bones, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, or muscle tissue. These tissues should not compress the body’s nerves. If this is the case, these issues need to be realigned through chiropractic adjustments.
