Pinched Nerve Treatment in Virginia Beach – Get Relief at New Life Chiropractic
A pinched nerve can cause some of the most intense and disruptive pain a person can experience. Whether it’s a sharp, stabbing sensation at the site or radiating pain that travels along the nerve’s path, this type of nerve compression can make daily life difficult. At New Life Chiropractic in Virginia Beach, Dr. Mike Geheren specializes in identifying and treating pinched nerves with modern, effective, and drug-free methods.
What Is a Pinched Nerve?
A pinched nerve occurs when surrounding tissues—such as muscles, bones, or discs—put too much pressure on a nerve. This can lead to pain, numbness, tingling, or even weakness along the nerve’s pathway. Inflammation often follows the initial compression, increasing the likelihood of repeat episodes and prolonging discomfort.
Sometimes, conditions like herniated discs, sciatica, or even tight muscles can be mistaken for a pinched nerve, which is why accurate diagnosis is so important.
Chiropractic Care for Pinched Nerves
At New Life Chiropractic, one of the most effective treatments we offer for pinched nerves is chiropractic adjustment. By realigning the spine and relieving pressure on affected nerves, chiropractic adjustments can open up space in the joints and reduce tension in the surrounding tissues. This promotes natural healing and restores mobility.
Dry Needling for Muscle Tension and Nerve Pain
In addition to chiropractic care, Dr. Geheren also uses dry needling to relieve muscle tension that may be contributing to nerve compression. Dry needling targets tight trigger points in muscles, releasing tension and improving blood flow. This can significantly reduce inflammation and help calm irritated nerves.
Other Therapies and Home Care
We also offer therapeutic ultrasound in our Virginia Beach office, which uses sound waves to promote healing and reduce nerve inflammation. At home, ice therapy is the best immediate remedy to reduce swelling and discomfort.
