Chiropractic Care for Numbness and Tingling
Achieve relief with Salt & Spine Chiropractic
Numbness and tingling in your extremities can cause extreme discomfort and, if recurring or chronic, annoyance. Some acute cases may be due to poor blood circulation or rapid body temperature changes, but recurring or very severe symptoms are more concerning and can be managed with chiropractic care.
If the numbness and tingling is accompanied by paralysis, extreme weakness, or loss of bladder control, seek medical attention immediately.
Potential causes for numbness and tingling
The source of numbness and tingling in extremities could be due to a variety of spinal issues:
- Cervical Radiculopathy (pinched nerves in the neck)
- Thoracic Radiculopathy (pinched nerves in the middle back and ribs)
- Lumbopelvic Radiculopathy (pinched nerves in the lower back)
- Disc Deterioration or Injury
- Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS)
- Muscle Conditions
Chiropractic care can help address these spinal issues and offer relief to these pains. Spinal manipulation can realign spinal misalignments contributing to some of these symptoms which may provide relief. Importantly, numbness and tingling can be early signs of nerve damage, circulation problems, or other underlying health conditions, so it’s important to seek an evaluation from a qualified healthcare provider to identify the cause and begin appropriate treatment as early as possible.
