Numbness and Tingling

We've all had the experience of sitting on a foot, lying on a hand, or sleeping on a shoulder and feeling the tingling feeling in a limb where, after a brief period of time and "shaking it off" the normal sensation returns. Feelings such as these also tend to come on as a result of injury, degeneration, and many other reasons. Please take a look at more the more specific conditions listed that may help detail any issues you have with numbness and tingling. It is not normal for these feelings to persist and ignoring them could lead to many unpleasant complications, such as prolonged weakness and muscle atrophy (shrinking). At Green Chiropractic Clinic in San Francisco, Dr. Jacob takes your complaint of Numbness and Tingling quite seriously.

One of the most common causes of general numbness and tingling is a form of compression over a nerve. This compression can occur very close to the spinal cord in your back, or as far away from your spine as the wrist or ankle. Our goal at Green Chiropractic Clinic in San Francisco is to identify the site of compression, using several diagnostic methods, and relieving the source of the pain. Getting to the source helps avoid recurrence of injury, and that is precisely our goal! Should we be unable to attend to the cause, rest assured that you will be referred to a doctor that can address your issue efficiently.
