Tis the season to be merry, but if you suffer from pain, you may be feeling more like Scrooge than Santa.
The “Pinch”
Being pinched hurts—but pinching a nerve? That can bring on severe, intense pain. Pinched nerves can occur anywhere along your spine, affecting areas like your arms, hands, shoulders, back, legs, and even your internal organs. They don’t just cause pain—they can diminish energy, disrupt sleep, and impair your overall NM of wellness in Albuquerque.
The Bank of Nerves
Your body contains billions of nerve fibers organized into bundles called nerves. Many travel down your spinal cord and exit between vertebrae, branching out to every part of your body.
An Account With No Nerves
Without nerves, you’d be completely disconnected. No touch, taste, movement, or emotion. Your body would be like a house with all the lights off—nonfunctional and isolated.
Nerve Regulation
Nerves regulate everything—breathing, digestion, organ function, blood pressure, and more. If they’re compromised, your body’s internal systems can’t work efficiently.
Where Do Pinched Nerves Begin?
Pinched nerves are often the result of spinal misalignments. These misalignments can stem from car accidents, stress, poor posture, sleeping positions, or past trauma. Misaligned vertebrae compress or irritate nerves, disrupting the vital signals between your brain and body. Left untreated, this can lead to chronic dysfunction and even disease.
Dis-ease and Pinched Nerves
When nerve signals are interrupted, your body can slip into a state of dis-ease—a weakening that may lead to disease. Chiropractors in Albuquerque, NM have long recognized that many health issues stem from nervous system interference, including headaches, digestive issues, asthma, fatigue, and more.
Do All Pinched Nerves Hurt?
Not necessarily. In fact, less than 10% of your nervous system perceives pain. This means many people walk around with spinal misalignments that never trigger symptoms—until it’s too late. The absence of pain doesn’t mean you’re free from nerve interference.
