Pins and Needles?

Many people experience tingling or “pins and needles” in their hands or feet.  While this can be caused by very serious conditions such as a tumor, the more common cause is a nerve being pressed on or stretched by a muscle or joint problem in the neck or low back.  When a nerve is compromised, tingling is often the first symptom to occur.  The good news is that chiropractic treatments are just what the doctor ordered for these situations!  Chiropractic adjustments and soft tissue therapies will lessen the tension in the muscles and allow the joints to move more freely.  This will take pressure off of the nerve and the tingling will be a thing of the past.  If you have tingling in your upper or lower extremities schedule an appointment with Dr. Hartwig at Marcum Chiropractic to feel better now!  Call 503-235-7130 today.
