Chiropractic and Pinched Nerves

Chiropractic and Pinched Nerves, Chiropractic and Pinched Nerves is a bit of a misnomer as it is rare that nerves actually become pinched. Still the term is descriptive and easy to relate to for the most part as it can reflect the type of pain a person may be having. What actual usually occurs is a structural distortion in the body, either in the muscle or bones that can cause a peripheral entrapment along the course of the nerve fiber. Frequently these occurs within the back bones themselves. Such a distortion is minor and usually is extremely small, often less than the thickness of a piece of paper. Best known as a subluxation this is a condition that most chiropractors treat easily and efficiently. In the body nerves exit off the spinal column thru the different bones in the back to supply the muscles and organs with a connection back to the brain. When this circuit is compromised pain and functional problems develop and can affect a host of issues. Among these are tendons / ligaments, blood vessels and the immune and digestive system. Subluxations can develop overtime and are usually brought on by stress, whether it’s emotional,  structural or chemical. To fix a subluxation is best done through chiropractic adjustments to the body but it is also important to identify the source of stress and remove it from the environment .
