Once we understand your condition, we develop a personalized treatment plan using gentle chiropractic adjustments to relieve pressure on the affected nerve. Many patients notice improvement after just a few visits, though everyone heals at their own pace.
Throughout your care, we monitor your progress and adjust our approach as needed. Our goal is simple: get you back to your normal activities as quickly and safely as possible, then help you maintain that improvement long-term.

Comprehensive Pinched Nerve Care
Your pinched nerve treatment includes a complete initial consultation, thorough examination, and personalized adjustment plan. We also offer massage therapy as an adjunct service to help relax tense muscles around the affected area.
For Sparta Township residents dealing with the physical demands of work and active lifestyles, we understand how pinched nerves can develop from repetitive motions, poor posture, or sudden movements. Whether you’re dealing with desk work, manual labor, or the wear and tear of daily life, we’ve seen it all.
We also provide education about proper posture, ergonomics, and exercises you can do at home to support your recovery and prevent future problems. Our approach goes beyond just treating symptoms – we help you understand your condition so you can make informed decisions about your health.
How long does it take for a pinched nerve to heal with chiropractic care?
Most patients start feeling relief within the first few visits, though complete healing varies depending on the severity and location of the nerve compression. Mild cases might resolve in a few weeks, while more chronic conditions may take several weeks to months for full recovery.
The key is consistency with your treatment plan. Skipping appointments or stopping care too early often leads to setbacks. We monitor your progress closely and adjust your treatment frequency as you improve, so you’re not getting more care than you need.
What causes pinched nerves in the neck and back?
Pinched nerves typically develop when surrounding tissues – like bones, muscles, or tendons – put pressure on a nerve root. Common causes include herniated discs, bone spurs from arthritis, muscle inflammation, or repetitive strain from poor posture.
For many Sparta Township residents, we see pinched nerves from desk work, sleeping in awkward positions, sudden movements while lifting, or age-related changes in the spine. The good news is that regardless of the cause, chiropractic adjustments can often relieve the pressure and allow the nerve to heal naturally.
Can a pinched nerve cause numbness and tingling in my hands?
Absolutely. Pinched nerves in your neck can cause symptoms that radiate down into your shoulders, arms, and hands. You might experience numbness, tingling, weakness, or that “pins and needles” sensation that feels like your arm fell asleep.
This happens because the compressed nerve can’t send proper signals between your brain and the affected area. The location of your symptoms helps us pinpoint exactly which nerve is involved and where the compression is occurring, which guides our treatment approach.
Is chiropractic treatment safe for pinched nerves?
Yes, chiropractic care is considered a safe, non-invasive treatment for most pinched nerve conditions. We use gentle adjustment techniques specifically designed to relieve pressure on compressed nerves without causing additional trauma to the area.
Before beginning any treatment, we conduct a thorough examination to make sure chiropractic care is appropriate for your specific condition. If we discover that your symptoms require a different type of medical intervention, we’ll refer you to the right specialist. Your safety and well-being always come first.
Will I need surgery for my pinched nerve?
The vast majority of pinched nerve cases respond well to conservative treatment like chiropractic care and don’t require surgery. Surgery is typically only considered when conservative treatments haven’t provided relief after several months, or in severe cases with significant muscle weakness.
Our approach focuses on addressing the underlying cause of the nerve compression through gentle spinal adjustments, which often provides the relief you need without the risks and recovery time associated with surgery. Most of our patients find they can return to their normal activities with conservative care alone.
Do you offer payment plans or accept insurance for pinched nerve treatment?
We offer a new patient special that includes your initial consultation, examination, and history for just $37, making it affordable to get started with your care. This comprehensive evaluation helps us determine the best treatment approach for your specific condition.
For ongoing care, we work with most insurance plans and can help you understand your coverage. We believe that financial concerns shouldn’t prevent you from getting the relief you need, so we’re happy to discuss payment options that work within your budget during your initial visit.
