At Revamp Chiropractic and Wellness, we understand that arm pain can show up in many forms and stem from a range of underlying issues. One common condition we address is cervical radiculopathy—a type of arm discomfort that actually starts in the neck. Rather than resulting from a direct injury to the arm, this condition often develops when nerves that extend from the neck to the arms become compressed due to herniated discs, joint inflammation, or spinal misalignment. The result can be sharp pain, tingling, or weakness in the arm. Fortunately, chiropractic care can effectively target the source and bring lasting relief.
If you're experiencing arm discomfort, tingling, numbness, or weakness—especially when paired with neck or upper back pain—Revamp Chiropractic and Wellness offers personalized care to get to the root of the issue. Many of our patients dealing with these symptoms are affected by cervical radiculopathy, a condition where nerves in the neck become compressed. While it's more common in individuals over 50, it can occur at any age due to:
• Herniated Discs in the Neck
The discs between your spinal vertebrae act as natural cushions, protecting nerves and promoting healthy movement. Over time—or as a result of trauma like a car accident—these discs may bulge or rupture. When this happens, nearby nerves can become irritated, leading to pain, numbness, or weakness that radiates down the arm.
• Vertebral Misalignments (Subluxations)
Misalignments in the cervical spine from poor posture, falls, or sports injuries can cause nerve compression and inflammation in the joints. Left unaddressed, this may contribute to early degenerative changes like osteoarthritis, a common contributor to cervical radiculopathy.
• Poor Postural Habits & Ergonomics
Spending hours hunched over a desk or laptop can strain the neck and upper back. Inadequate workstation ergonomics or forward head posture can gradually lead to nerve irritation and arm pain.
Once we've identified the root cause of your symptoms, Dr. Hamilton will recommend a customized treatment plan designed to relieve pressure and restore proper function:
✓ Chiropractic Adjustments
Through targeted spinal adjustments, we gently realign the vertebrae, helping relieve pressure on nerves and reduce pain at its source.
✓ Therapeutic Exercise & Postural Coaching
You'll receive tailored stretches and mobility exercises to improve posture, enhance spinal stability, and restore function in your neck, shoulders, and arms. We'll also walk you through workspace adjustments to help prevent future flare-ups.
