Pinched Nerve

Pinched Nerve Treatment in Long Branch, NJRelieve Pressure. Restore Function. Regain Comfort.

A pinched nerve can cause sharp pain, numbness, tingling, or even muscle weakness—making daily tasks feel frustrating or unbearable. At New Life Chiropractic, we take a natural, corrective approach to treating pinched nerves by identifying the underlying spinal misalignments or muscular imbalances that are putting pressure on your nerves.

Our goal is to relieve nerve compression, reduce inflammation, and restore normal nerve function—without drugs or invasive procedures.

**What Is a Pinched Nerve?**A pinched nerve occurs when there’s excessive pressure on a nerve from surrounding tissues—often due to a spinal misalignment, herniated disc, tight muscles, or inflammation. This pressure disrupts nerve signals, leading to pain, discomfort, or altered function in the affected area.

Pinched nerves can occur anywhere in the body but are most common in the neck, upper back, lower back, and extremities.

Common Causes of Pinched Nerves- Spinal misalignments (subluxations)

• Herniated or bulging discs

• Poor posture or prolonged sitting

• Repetitive motion or overuse

• Muscle tightness or inflammation

• Degenerative disc disease or arthritis

• Spinal compression from past injuries

Symptoms of a Pinched Nerve- Sharp or burning pain along the spine or extremities

• Tingling, numbness, or “pins and needles” in the arms, hands, legs, or feet

• Muscle weakness or limited range of motion

• Pain that radiates (sciatica, cervical radiculopathy)

• Stiffness, swelling, or postural compensation

• Discomfort that worsens with certain movements or positions

Our Chiropractic Approach to Nerve ReliefAt New Life Chiropractic, we focus on removing the source of pressure on the nerve through gentle, specific chiropractic care and supportive therapies that allow the nervous system to function optimally.

Your care plan may include:- **Chiropractic adjustments to correct spinal misalignments

• **Soft tissue **techniques to release surrounding muscle tension

• **Corrective **exercise therapy to restore balance and strength
