Numbness and tingling is typically noticed in the hands and feet and is most often due to nerve and spinal damage. Nerves can become pinched, irritated, or compressed, from a multitude of different conditions. When this happens, often people experience a “pins and needles” sensation that can be very uncomfortable and distracting. Chiropractors can perform a range of therapies such as hands-on manipulation and instrument assisted manipulation to realign the spine. By realigning the spine, inflammation can be released and any damage that has occurred will begin to rebuild, leading the sensation of numbness and tingling to dissipate or be eliminated completely.
