Non-Surgical Pinched Nerve Treatment

NUCCA Chiropractic and Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression are both non-invasive and non-surgical options for treatment – and they are both offered by Intouch Chiropractic. These gentle and effective treatments for spinal conditions do not require medications or shots. Instead of treating the surface symptoms, your Intouch Chiropractic doctors provide a long-term solution to provide you relief and help prevent further spinal damage. Every patient receives our full attention and customized care.

At Intouch Chiropractic, once you receive proper care for a pinched nerve, you can expect to have decreased pain, less tingling and numbness, and more movement. If you have past x-rays or MRI images available, please provide them to our doctors at the time of your appointment. Many of our patients get relief even after treatments such as prescription medications, physical therapy, and even surgery have failed.

What is a Pinched Nerve?

A “pinched nerve” is the result of damage or injury to a nerve or set of nerves. This can be due to stretching, compression and/or constriction by nearby tissues, such as bones, discs, cartilage, muscles and/or tendons. This pressure disturbs the nerve’s normal function.

A herniated disc in your low back can put pressure on a nerve root, causing pain and discomfort that travels down the back of your leg. A pinched nerve in your neck can lead to numbness and pain in your arm, hand, and fingers. Most patients respond well to conservative care, while severe cases may require surgery. Our doctors will always begin with a complete evaluation to ensure that you are a candidate for our treatments, getting started right away if appropriate and referring you elsewhere if necessary.

Finding the Right Pinched Nerve Treatment for You

No matter where you live, there are a variety of treatment options for pinched nerves in San Diego. Intouch Chiropractic provides expert non-surgical pinched nerve treatment in San Diego, but the remedies below are more common. We often see patients after these standard remedies have failed, but they should not be totally discounted. The important thing is finding the right treatment for you. Standard treatment for nerve damage often begins with oral medications. From there, many patients seek other options if their symptoms persist.

At Intouch Chiropractic, we focus on:

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression. Remedies for pinched nerves due to disc problems.
Symptoms from a pinched nerve that are due to a disc herniation, disc bulge, or stenosis are relieved.
NUCCA Chiropractic. Gentle, targeted adjustments to treat the source of pain.
These adjustments relieve pain and can help prevent it from coming back.

Other common pinched nerve treatment options include:

NSAIDs. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
These include aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen to reduce swelling.
Narcotics. These medications are used for short periods to reduce severe pain.
These include oxycodone and fentanyl.
Steroid injections. Injections are used to reduce swelling.
Most medical providers advise against more than 3 shots in a one-year time frame.
Physical therapy. Often recommended for stretching and strengthening muscles.
Many patients report getting help, but others do not respond to treatment.
Oral corticosteroids. These medications are used to reduce swelling and pain.
These include hydrocortisone, prednisone, and prednisolone
General Chiropractic care. A common treatment for acute and chronic spinal conditions.
Some patients get relief for acute and chronic symptoms from a pinched nerve with general chiropractic care.
Surgery. Recommended for severe problems that don’t respond to other types of treatment.
It is always advised to consider surgery as a last resort.
