Nerve compression causing pain, numbness, or weakness.
A pinched (compressed) nerve happens when surrounding tissue — bone, disc, or muscle — puts too much pressure on a nerve. It can occur anywhere along the spine and cause symptoms far from the source, like tingling in the hands from a neck issue. Relieving the compression is the key to lasting relief.
Most pinched nerve is not dangerous and responds well to conservative care — but get prompt, in-person evaluation if you notice any of these warning signs:
If symptoms are severe or come on suddenly, seek emergency care first.
Through specific adjustments, decompression, and soft-tissue work, we reduce the pressure on the nerve and address the structural issue causing it — then add rehab to keep it from recurring.
Our doctors treat pinched nerve at all three North Georgia offices — Canton, Cartersville, and Rome — with same- or next-day appointments and a bilingual team.
You’re treated on your first visit, not just evaluated. A focused neurological exam locates exactly which nerve is involved so care is precise, and we begin relieving the compression the same day. No sales pitch, no pressure — just effective, conservative care focused on getting you out of pain quickly.
These tips support your care but aren’t a substitute for an evaluation — if symptoms persist or worsen, get checked.
In most cases, yes. Chiropractic care relieves the compression causing your symptoms and addresses the underlying cause — a safe, drug-free, non-surgical approach.
Many patients improve within a few weeks, though it depends on the location and severity. We’ll give you a clear plan after your exam.
Most resolve with conservative care, but persistent numbness or weakness should be evaluated promptly to prevent lasting nerve issues. We screen for that at your visit.
Yes — a compressed nerve in the neck often refers symptoms down the arm into the hand and fingers, which is why numbness or tingling in the hand can actually start at the spine. We trace the symptoms back to the source.
