Pinched Nerve Relief in Serangoon

chiropractor adjusting shouldersIf too much pressure is applied to a nerve by surrounding tissues (bones, muscles, cartilage, or tendons), a pinched nerve occurs. This pressure disrupts the function of the nerve, resulting in pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness.

Our Comprehensive Approach to Care

At SpinePro Chiropractic, we offer a comprehensive approach to relieving this pressure on the nerves. Chiropractic adjustments restore proper motion and alignment in the spine, exercise helps strengthen and stabilise the area, and stretching and mobility work to increase flexibility. The result can be reduced pain and other symptoms, as well as greater mobility and improved function.

There are many conditions that may cause pinched nerves, such as:

  • Injury
  • Repetitive movements or overuse
  • Hobbies or sports activities
  • Obesity
  • Age
  • Poor posture

If a nerve is pinched for just a short time, typically there is no permanent damage. Once the pressure is alleviated, nerve function returns to normal. However, if the pressure persists, you could experience chronic pain and permanent nerve damage.

Where does a pinched nerve occur?

A pinched nerve can occur anywhere in your body, and the area where you experience symptoms may not be the same spot as the affected nerve. For example, a herniated disc in the lower part of the spine may press on a nerve root, resulting in shooting pain down the back of your leg.

What are the most common symptoms associated with a pinched nerve?

Pain is typically the primary symptom experienced with pinched nerves. A pinched nerve may also cause numbness, tingling, or weakness in areas of the body served by the affected nerves.

Can exercises help?

Yes, we can show you some exercises that can help address your pinched nerve.
