Pinched Nerve Pain Relief in Westfield

Nerves play a crucial role in transmitting messages between the brain and the rest of the body. However, when a nerve becomes pinched or irritated, it can disrupt this communication, leading to discomfort and other symptoms. A pinched nerve may cause radiating pain in the affected area—whether in the back, neck, arms, legs, hands, or feet. Other common symptoms include weakness, burning sensations, numbness, or tingling. If you’re experiencing these issues in Westfield, our chiropractor can provide effective treatment to relieve pinched nerve pain and restore proper nerve function.

Discuss Pinched Nerve Treatment Options with Our Chiropractor

At our Westfield office, Dr. Kang will perform a comprehensive evaluation of your spine, medical history, and symptoms to pinpoint the cause of your pinched nerve. Since nerve impingement can arise from several underlying conditions, treatment is tailored to address the root cause. Common causes of pinched nerves include:

  • Subluxation
    Nerves extend from the spinal cord through spaces between the vertebrae. When vertebrae become misaligned, they can compress these nerves, leading to pain and dysfunction in the affected areas.

  • Herniated Disc
    Injury or poor posture can cause the protective discs between vertebrae to rupture. When the gel-like interior leaks out, it can put pressure on nearby nerves, resulting in pain.

  • Degenerative Disc Disease
    As we age, spinal discs lose hydration and structure, which can cause them to bulge and irritate surrounding nerves.

  • Arthritis
    Wear and tear on the facet joints, which allow spinal movement, can contribute to nerve compression. This often leads to pain, numbness, tingling, and reduced mobility.

Comprehensive Chiropractic Treatment for Pinched Nerves

Fortunately, each of these conditions can be effectively managed through a holistic chiropractic approach, including:

  • Chiropractic Spinal Adjustments
    By realigning the vertebrae, our chiropractors relieve nerve pressure and restore proper spinal function, reducing pain and discomfort.

  • Therapeutic Exercises
    Once the spine is properly aligned, we provide guided exercises to strengthen core muscles, improve posture, and prevent future nerve impingement.
