That strange tingling, prickling, or “pins and needles” feeling in your hands or feet isn’t just annoying—it may be your body’s warning signal. At Green Mountain Chiropractic and Massage in Lakewood, CO, we help patients every day in Lakewood CO uncover the real cause of nerve-related symptoms and restore proper function naturally.
What Is a Pinched Nerve—Really?
Though we call it a “pinched nerve,” it’s often more about compression or irritation. This can lead to numbness, burning, tingling, or radiating pain—especially toward your fingers or toes where nerves travel the farthest.
Why Healthy Nerves Are Vital
Your nervous system controls everything from movement and digestion to mood and immune function. When even a single nerve is impaired, it can ripple through your entire body, affecting energy, healing, and daily performance.
Common Causes of Nerve Compression
Spinal misalignments—also called subluxations—can occur from poor posture, repetitive stress, trauma, inflammation, or even emotional strain. These misalignments irritate nearby nerves, creating dysfunction in the surrounding tissue and beyond.
Dis-ease Leads to Disease
Chiropractors often use the term “dis-ease” to describe what happens when the nervous system is under stress. Even if you don’t feel pain, this interference may contribute to long-term conditions like headaches, fatigue, anxiety, or digestive disorders.
Why Symptoms Aren’t Always Obvious
Only about 10% of your nerves actually transmit pain. That means the majority of nerve dysfunction may exist silently—affecting your health without you realizing it until symptoms appear more seriously.
