Chiropractic Helps Nerve Pain In Long Island

By Rae Patricio


If you are suffering from pain and discomfort, the problem could be a pinched nerve or nerve impingement. This can result in headaches, back pain, leg pain, and pain almost anywhere in the body. In fact, even vital organ function can be affected. Thankfully, your chiropractor offers Long Island active release technique, and it can be highly beneficial.

Nerves in your body can become irritated in many ways. For example, if your job requires you to do the same tasks time and time again, it can create tension and stress in muscles. This is often caused by jobs like computer operators or assembly line workers. Once muscles become too tight, they don't have the chance to relax.

Tight muscles can affect nerve function and you could be in pain. Your nerves are natural communication lines between your brain and the rest of the body. Without nerves, the brain could not operate the body. This is why serious spinal injuries may result in paralysis. Impinged nerves can create some very unusual sensations in your body.

An irritated nerve can create a feeling of electrical shock. You also could have a serious backache or your muscles may become tight. Nerve pain can be the cause of numbness in the extremities or you could feel like someone is placing a hot poker against your skin.

Irritated nerves often form scar tissue as result of injury and this scar tissue can interfere with nerve function and mobility. Active release therapy or ART is designed to relax muscles and break up scar tissue which is restricting movement. This helps to improve movement and can allow impinged nerves to heal.

A qualified ART practitioner checks the body for signs of scar tissue. These areas (called trigger points) can be broken up by placing the right kind of pressure on them. In addition, your tightened muscles may have affected the alignment of your spine and this can be corrected with gentle and effective chiropractic adjustment therapy. After a few visits, you may be much better.
