Pinched nerves can occur almost anywhere in the body, but are normally in or near the joints. Nerves can be compressed by ligaments, tendons, cartilage, bones, and muscle tissues that have become inflamed. The longer a nerve remains confined, the more uncomfortable it can be. Compressing a nerve can lead to irreversible damage due to the blood flow being blocked from the area. Dr. Prefer at Preferred Chiropractic in Palm Beach Gardens provides quality chiropractic care for pinched nerves.
Causes of Pinched Nerves
Pinched nerves can be the result of an accident, such as a slip and fall or work or sports-related injury. A compressed nerve can also be the result of repetitive motions performed during the course of a day's work. Pinched nerves in the spinal column can be the result of a lifting injury or an automobile accident. You may not notice a pinched nerve at first. What starts as a mild irritation can eventually turn into a nagging pain that is accompanied by a feeling of pins and needles. The area may even start to feel numb at times.
Chiropractic Treatments
Chiropractic care includes many treatment options that work together to strengthen and support the musculoskeletal structure. Chiropractic adjustments, myofascial release, drop-table or inversion techniques, and laser therapy can be used together to stimulate the body's abilities to heal itself. Once our chiropractor has performed a thorough evaluation and determined the cause of your pain, we will create a customized treatment plan to reduce your pain and support the healing process.
Customized Treatment Plans
Each patient receives a customized treatment plan based on their individual needs. Because each treatment plan is unique, the patient gets the treatment he or she needs to heal properly. As the healing progresses, the treatment plan can be adjusted to ensure the healing continues to move forward.
