What Causes Numbness And Tingling?
Numbness and tingling sensations can be caused by a number of reasons. Numbness often begins in the arms or legs, which can progress to the fingers or toes. The most likely reason for numbness and tingling is pressure on your nerves – either from a herniated disc, inflammation of the joints of the spine, or muscle stiffness (i.e piriformis syndrome).
If you are experiencing numbness or tingling it is important to consult a medical professional to ensure numbness is not a sign of something more serious or prevent the condition from worsening.

Spinal Misalignments And Numbness And Tingling
Misalignments in the spine can be the root cause of a variety of health conditions relating to this feeling, including migraines, pinched nerves, or even carpal tunnel syndrome. A misalignment can cause interference with the nerves that could impact normal blood flow and the communication between the body and the brain, which then leads to dysfunction.
After a consultation, Dr Woods may decide to perform a gentle adjustment that removes misalignments and then the nerve interference, opening up blood flow and correcting health concerns, so your body can once again function as it should.
In many cases, tingling and numbness can be fixed with consistent chiropractic care. Additionally, while chiropractic alleviates these annoying sensations, it also promotes your overall health and wellness of so you can feel your absolute best.
Research Demonstrates the Effectiveness Of Chiropractic Care
There have been case studies that show that chiropractic care has helped people find relief from numbness and tingling.
In one such study, a woman suffered from paresthesia(a pins and needles sensation). For two years this affected her right arm and led to insomnia.
After only a single week of chiropractic care, her numbness and tingling were entirely gone.
A different study involving 162 people with nerve pain called radiculopathy discovered that 85% of people were able to find relief with just nine visits to a chiropractor were free from nerve pain, numbness, and tingling

Physical Therapy Care In Dublin, Ireland
Physical therapy treatment for numbness and tingling can vary depending on the underlying cause. However, physical therapists will begin with a thorough examination of your movement patterns to determine if there is altered body mechanics or muscle imbalance that could contribute to numbness and tingling.
We then carry out manual therapy techniques such as massage therapy/deep tissue release and joint manipulations to release tight muscles and joints to improve nerve mobility.
We also implement an individually tailored treatment plan with both supervised and home exercises that can help retrain your body’s posture, reduce numbness and tingling, while improving overall function at work or during daily or sporting activities.
Research shows physical therapist-led exercise therapy is very effective in reducing numbness and tingling by increasing the flexibility of the affected joints, nerves, and muscles. Physical therapy can also improve balance and coordination which can be secondary symptoms of nerve compression, as well as normalize sensation.
