Can a Chiropractor Help With Numbness and Tingling in My Hands?

Yes, in many cases, a chiropractor in Garland like Dr. Ruy Amador, DC at Dolce Vita Chiropractic can help uncover and address musculoskeletal causes of numbness and tingling in your hands—especially when these symptoms are linked to neck problems or pinched nerves. However, if your numbness comes with sudden weakness, incontinence, slurred speech, or severe pain, this are red flags you should seek immediate medical evaluation (Emergency Room, Hospital) first.  Chiropractors can help you reduce or eliminate numbness and tingling in your hands, so lets navitage through this and explain the basics.

Why Am I Feeling Numbness or Tingling in My Hands?

Mild, recurring numbness and tingling in the hands (entumecimiento y hormigueo en las manos) often stem from mechanical or postural problems. Common culprits in Garland, Mesquite, and Rowlett workers include:

• Poor neck posture from long hours at a desk or spending time on your phone (“text neck”)
• Repetitive lifting or overhead work done by construction workers and/or the warehouse workers.  We help help thoes who have access to the I-635 or I-30 corridors in the Dallas metroplex.
• Lifting heavy gear for a weekend of boating at Lake Ray Hubbard or hiking Spring Creek Forest Preserve
• Old injuries (Sports or Accidents) or chronic stiffness in the neck and upper back

The most common causes are due to then neck joints or soft tissues become irritated or compressed, nerves traveling to your hands are affected—causing those odd sensations.  This affects your brachial plexus (a complex network of nerves originating from spinal nerves C5-T1) and those nerves control motor and sensory functions of the shoulder, arm, and hand.  Tingling in the hands may be one of the symptoms.

When Should I See a Chiropractor in Garland TX?

If the tingling is mild, comes and goes, or worsens when you turn or move your neck, it may be musculoskeletal and in most cases it can be resolved in a few visit to your Chiropractor such as Dr. Ruy Amador, DC at Dolce Vita Chiropractic.  If you are in the Dallas metroplex area, near Garland Tx., come to Dolce Vita Chiropractic.  They frequently sees desk workers from Firewheel Town Center, Garland, Rowlett.  Most of them between the age of 30 and 60 years of age, active adults finding relief after a structured evaluation, determining the proper care plan for them and delivering their individual therapy.  Here in the Dallas metroplex and especially in Garland Tx., we have a lot of patients that speak Spanish.  Bilingual care is available for those preferring a Chiopractor that speaks Spanish “quiropráctico cerca de mí”.  Don’t wait to get help!   Don’t let something that can be corrected turn into something severe because you waited to long or self diagnosed it incorrectly.
