Neuropathy Omaha
Often painful and sometimes debilitating, neuropathy can make everyday tasks challenging. Chiropractic care helps by addressing the source of nerve pressure and interference. The most common neuropathy we treat involves pain radiating from the neck to the shoulder, though many patients experience shooting pain in various patterns.
Understanding Nerve Recovery Time
When dealing with true neuropathy, patients should understand that recovery often takes longer than with other conditions. Why? Because nerves heal more slowly than other tissues. Our treatment first focuses on relieving pressure from affected nerves, creating conditions for healing, and then allows time for the nerves to regenerate and recover their function. While this process does require patience, chiropractic care provides crucial support for the nervous system throughout recovery.
Focused Treatment for Desk Workers
People who work at desks are particularly vulnerable to developing neuropathy, especially in the neck-upper back junction. The prolonged postures and repetitive movements associated with computer work create significant stress on the cervical spine, often leading to nerve compression. Our treatment addresses these specific stressors and helps patients modify their work habits to prevent recurring problems, giving your body the tools to adapt to workplace demands.
At-Home Support Recommendations
To complement in-office care, we often recommend using a specialized neck wedge at home to help rehabilitate the cervical spine and restore its natural curve. Regular posture checks throughout the workday also help prevent additional pressure on compromised nerves. These simple but effective strategies help extend the benefits of your adjustments and support continued healing between visits.
