Helping you be your best

How our chiropractic care helps treat trapped nerves.

A trapped nerve occurs when excessive pressure is placed on a nerve by surrounding joints, muscles, ligaments or spinal discs. This pressure can interfere with the way the nerve functions, causing symptoms such as pain, tingling, numbness, burning sensations or muscle weakness. Depending on which nerve is affected, symptoms may be felt in the neck, back, shoulders, arms or legs.

Chiropractic care is a safe, effective and non-invasive way to help relieve symptoms caused by trapped nerves. Using precise Gonstead chiropractic adjustments, we help restore normal movement to the spine, reduce irritation around affected joints and improve the body’s natural function.

By identifying and addressing the underlying cause of the nerve irritation, we aim to reduce pain, improve mobility and support your body’s natural recovery while helping to reduce the likelihood of future flare-ups.

Don't ignore the warning signs of a trapped nerve.

Why patients choose Capital Chiropractic

Finding the source of your nerve pain.

Your first appointment is focused on understanding exactly what’s causing your symptoms.

We’ll take the time to discuss when your symptoms began, where you feel pain or altered sensation, and how they’re affecting your daily life. We’ll then carry out a thorough examination of your spine, posture, joint movement and nerve function to identify the source of the irritation.

If clinically appropriate, we may recommend digital X-rays to gain a clearer understanding of your spine and ensure we provide the safest and most appropriate treatment for your condition
