Many mild pinched nerves ease within a few weeks of consistent care, while cases involving a herniated disc or long-standing compression can take longer. The sooner the pressure on the nerve is relieved, the faster symptoms tend to settle. We'll give you a realistic timeline after evaluating you.
Pinched Nerve Treatment
A pinched nerve happens when surrounding tissue — a disc, bone, muscle, or tendon — puts too much pressure on a nerve, causing sharp pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness that can radiate down an arm or leg. At Aim High Health, we relieve that pressure at its source with drug-free, non-surgical care like spinal decompression, chiropractic adjustments, and targeted physical therapy — so the nerve can calm down and your strength and comfort can return.
Herniated Disc
Bone Spurs
Poor Posture
Repetitive Motion
Common Symptoms
Sharp or Radiating Pain: Pain that shoots along the path of the nerve
Numbness: Reduced sensation in the affected area
Tingling: A pins-and-needles feeling
Muscle Weakness: Loss of strength in the arm, hand, leg, or foot
Burning Sensation: A hot or electric feeling along the nerve
