Nerve irritation treatment in Gloucestershire
Sharp, shooting pain, pins and needles or numbness in the neck, shoulder or back? We ease the pressure on the nerve and restore your movement and comfort.
Symptoms of nerve irritation
Nerve irritation can cause a range of symptoms, often in the neck, shoulder or back:
Common causes
Nerves get compressed by tight muscles, poor posture, inflammation or joint restriction. We find where the nerve is being irritated and relieve the pressure with hands-on treatment.
How we treat it
We assess your posture, joint movement and nerve mobility to locate the source of compression.
Soft-tissue release, joint mobilisations, nerve mobilisation and dry needling to relieve the pressure and ease symptoms.
Nerve irritation can flare without warning - so your plan needs to be one step ahead. You'll leave your first session with gentle, targeted exercises matched to where your nerve is right now, plus a clear progression so every session has a purpose and you're always moving forward.
Persistent numbness, spreading weakness or symptoms that keep worsening should be checked by your GP.
“Rob is a magician! I was suffering with early carpal tunnel syndrome around Christmas time and, being a hairdresser, it isn't the most ideal thing to get. However, Rob not only treated my wrist but gave me lots of stretches and exercises to do, and now it's completely healed and I can continue my job in comfort. Not only that, he'll send over a message just to make sure everything is still ok.”
