You may not realize it, but that burning sensation or the tingling you feel in your neck or shoulders may be a pinched nerve. This can happen when undue pressure is exerted on the nerves in a specific location, especially when the vertebrae in the neck or spine become misaligned and cause pressure to be felt on the nerves in that local area. To achieve the kind of Northbrook pinched nerve relief which is lasting and effective, contact us at the Align Wellness Center in Northbrook, IL.
What exactly is a pinched nerve?
The root cause of your back pain.
Whenever the spine becomes misaligned for any reason, there’s a possibility that it will exert pressure on a nerve or several nerves, and that will cause irritation to a patient. This irritation can be minor or it can be fairly severe, especially when it’s situated in the neck or in the back. You might be able to identify a pinched nerve by the tingling or burning sensation you feel anywhere in your arms, back, feet, neck, legs, hands, or shoulders. When you feel any kind of numbness in these areas, it might very well be attributable to a pinched nerve brought on by some kind of spinal misalignment.
How do pinched nerves develop?
And what we can do about them.
One of the most common ways that pinched nerves develop is when a patient undergoes repetitive motions in a certain area of the body, or if they have remained in the same position for an extended period of time. Most often, pinched nerves happen in situations where the nerve is located between bones, ligaments, or tendons. When a nerve is subjected to repetitive motion, that can trigger discomfort or pain in a number of different areas throughout the body.
A skilled chiropractor will be able to examine you and determine if the numbness you feel in any of your body parts has been caused by spinal nerve compression. Once a chiropractic diagnoses the actual source of your discomfort, that will be the focus of treatment instead of the symptoms that you’re feeling. Chiropractic care will always eschew the use of pain-killers or medications, because these will only mask the symptoms for a brief period, and then they will all come back again. By treating the underlying cause of your pain and discomfort, the actual issue will be eliminated or significantly reduced.
Symptoms of a pinched nerve
It is entirely possible that when you have a pinched nerve, you will feel an increased level of numbness or pain, and you may also experience some level of muscle weakness. In cases where a pinched nerve goes untreated, it may not receive the nutrients it needs to remain healthy and functional. When the nerve fibers have been compressed so that they are unable to receive and transmit electrical impulses, they may die off altogether.
This can cause a permanent sensation of numbness in that specific area, when multiple nerves die off because they are malnourished. To the patient, this will feel like muscles in a certain area of the body are unable to perform naturally, and they may have a permanent feel of weakness or disability. Any time you experience this kind of sensation, you should contact us immediately at the Align Wellness Center, so you can achieve Northbrook pinched nerve relief as soon as possible.
At Align Wellness Center, we offer chiropractic care, cold laser therapy, disc compression therapy, sciatica treatment, and so much more to relieve pain, restore spinal function, and restore structural integrity. Also, we offer wellness programs for those who are seeking to remain healthy in the long run.

Questions ? You're Covered
What is a pinched nerve?
A pinched nerve occurs when excessive pressure is placed on a nerve by surrounding tissues—such as bones, muscles, ligaments, or discs. This pressure disrupts the nerve’s ability to function, often causing pain, tingling, burning, or numbness.
What are the symptoms of a pinched nerve?
Common signs include:
Tingling or “pins and needles” sensations
Burning or sharp pain
Numbness or decreased sensation
Muscle weakness in the affected area
Pain radiating down the arms or legs (especially with sciatica or cervical compression)
What causes pinched nerves?
Pinched nerves can be caused by:
Spinal misalignment
Repetitive motion or overuse
Poor posture
Herniated or bulging discs
Arthritis or joint inflammation
Prolonged sitting or awkward sleeping positions
How can chiropractic care relieve a pinched nerve?
Chiropractors gently adjust the spine to relieve pressure on the affected nerve, improve alignment, and restore proper function. This non-invasive approach reduces inflammation and irritation without drugs or surgery.
What happens if a pinched nerve goes untreated?
If left untreated, a pinched nerve can worsen over time, leading to permanent nerve damage, muscle weakness, or chronic numbness. Early care helps prevent these long-term issues and promotes healing.
