Find Relief from Pinched Nerve Pain at Oak Hills Chiropractics

At Oak Hills Chiropractic, we specialize in identifying the root cause of your pain and developing safe, effective treatment plans to help you get back to living without discomfort.

What Is a Pinched Nerve?

A pinched nerve occurs when there is excessive pressure on a nerve from surrounding tissues—such as bones, cartilage, muscles, or tendons. This pressure can disrupt the nerve’s function, causing pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness.

Pinched nerves most commonly occur in the:

• Neck (cervical spine)
  
• Lower back (lumbar spine)
  
• Wrist (carpal tunnel)
  
• Shoulders or elbows
  
  

Sometimes, the pain travels—down the arm, through the leg, or across the shoulders—depending on which nerve is affected. This is called radiculopathy, and it can make the source of the pain hard to pinpoint without a professional evaluation.

Common Symptoms of a Pinched Nerve

It’s easy to confuse a pinched nerve with muscle strain or inflammation, which is why an accurate diagnosis is key.

Signs you might have a pinched nerve include:

✅ Sharp or burning pain
✅ Radiating pain (down arm or leg)
✅ Numbness or reduced sensation
✅ Tingling or "pins and needles"
✅ Muscle weakness in the affected area
✅ Worsening pain after sitting or sleeping in certain positions

If you're experiencing one or more of these symptoms, it’s time to schedule an assessment at Oak Hills Chiropractic.

What Causes a Pinched Nerve?

Several conditions can lead to a pinched nerve. At our clinic, we commonly see patients with:

• Herniated or bulging discs in the spine
  
  
• Bone spurs or degenerative joint conditions like arthritis
  
  
• Injuries or trauma from car accidents or sports
  
  
• Repetitive motions (such as typing or lifting)
  
  
• Poor posture or sedentary lifestyle
  
  
• Pregnancy-related changes in the spine or joints
  
  

Understanding the underlying cause is critical to developing a personalized treatment plan that addresses both the symptoms and the source.

Our Approach to Pinched Nerve Treatment

At Oak Hills Chiropractic, we combine decades of clinical expertise with a comprehensive, patient-first approach. Our multidisciplinary team includes chiropractors, physical therapists, and rehabilitation specialists who collaborate to help you heal faster and more completely.

Step 1: Thorough Evaluation

We begin with a full consultation and diagnostic exam. This may include:

• Orthopedic and neurological testing
  
• Digital posture and movement assessments
  
• Imaging referrals if necessary (e.g., X-rays or MRIs)
  
• A detailed discussion of your symptoms, history, and lifestyle
  
  

Our goal is to not just treat the pain—but to understand its origin and prevent it from coming back.

Step 2: Individualized Treatment Plan

Depending on the location and severity of the pinched nerve, we may recommend a combination of the following therapies:

Chiropractic Adjustments
Gentle spinal adjustments can relieve pressure on the nerve by improving alignment and mobility in the spine.

Physical Therapy
Targeted exercises and stretches reduce inflammation, strengthen supporting muscles, and improve posture.

Soft Tissue Therapy
Massage therapy, myofascial release, or trigger point therapy may help release tension that contributes to nerve compression.

Electrical Stimulation & Therapeutic Ultrasound
These modalities help reduce pain and inflammation, increase circulation, and accelerate tissue healing.

Postural & Ergonomic Coaching
We’ll teach you how to sit, move, and sleep in ways that protect your nerves and reduce recurrence.
