Experiencing a pinched nerve can be incredibly painful and disruptive. At Zen Chiropractic, we specialize in providing effective and comprehensive pinched nerve treatment. Our chiropractic care in Eden Prairie is designed to relieve your pain, restore proper nerve function, and prevent future issues, helping you get back to your daily activities with ease.
A pinched nerve occurs when there is excessive pressure on a nerve by surrounding tissues such as bones, cartilage, muscles, or tendons. This pressure disrupts the nerve’s function, causing pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness. Just like a train needs a clear track to reach its destination, your nerves require an unobstructed path to function correctly.
Your spine is designed to allow movement while protecting the spinal cord and maintaining open nerve pathways. When a vertebra is out of its natural position, it can compress the nerve that passes through the surrounding openings, leading to irritation. This misalignment is known as a subluxation.
There are two main types of nerve interference:
At Zen Chiropractic, we go beyond treating the static structures of the spine. Our holistic approach includes addressing the soft tissues such as muscles, which are controlled by the nervous system. This comprehensive treatment helps break the cycle of pain and dysfunction caused by subluxations.
Extensive Examination: We conduct a thorough examination to identify the root cause of your pinched nerve and locate the exact area that requires care.
Chiropractic Adjustments: By realigning the spine, we restore movement and relieve nerve pressure. Chiropractic adjustments also trigger the release of endorphins, your body's natural painkillers.
Soft Tissue Therapy: We address the muscles and soft tissues to ensure they support the spinal adjustments and maintain proper alignment.
Preventive Care: Our goal is not only to treat the current issue but also to prevent future occurrences. We provide guidance on exercises, posture, and lifestyle modifications to support your spinal health.
