Comprehensive Treatment for Numbness and Tingling in Belmont & Medowie with Dr. Adam Wild

Paresthesia—while the term may be unfamiliar, the sensation of numbness and tingling, especially in the extremities, is something many people experience. Often described as “pins and needles,” this sensation can be a classic symptom of pinched nerves. While it’s common for a hand or foot to “fall asleep” after sitting awkwardly, for some, these disruptive sensations become a regular part of life. At BodyFix Chiropractic, Dr. Adam Wild and his team provide effective, lasting relief for the underlying causes of numbness, tingling, and pain.

Understanding the Causes of Numbness and Tingling

Several factors can lead to pinched nerves, resulting in discomfort and abnormal sensations. Common causes include:

Subluxations (Misalignments)

Improper spinal alignment due to poor posture or other habits.

Ergonomic Issues

Poor office setups, improper lifting techniques, or repetitive tasks performed without the correct form.

Traumatic Injuries

Injuries from car accidents, sports incidents, or other personal injuries.

Bulging, Protruding, or Herniated Discs

Conditions that can compress nearby nerves, leading to numbness and tingling.

The location of your numbness and tingling can offer clues about where the nerve is being pinched. X-rays may be necessary to pinpoint the issue, allowing our chiropractor to provide targeted treatment. Here’s how symptoms may manifest based on location:

Legs and Feet

Numbness or tingling in these areas may indicate a pinched nerve in the lower back. If symptoms radiate down from the lower back into one or both legs, this is often referred to as sciatica.

Arms and Hands

If you experience numbness and tingling in these areas, the source may be a pinched nerve in the lower neck or upper back. Conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome often involve nerve compression in both the neck and wrist.

Large Areas of the Body

Numbness and tingling affecting larger areas, such as one side of the body or the face, can be concerning. An x-ray will typically reveal the presence of pinched nerves that can be effectively treated through our non-invasive, drug-free chiropractic care.
