Many people with neck and arm pain go to chiropractors to help relieve their pain. This includes people with numbness in their hands and arms. There are numerous neck and arm conditions that respond well to chiropractic care including: Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS), cervical radiculitis, brachial neuritis, carpal tunnel, neuritis, and myofascitis/fibromyalgia.
By gently adjusting the cervical (neck) and upper thoracic (midback) vertebrae, a chiropractor can take the pressure off of pinched nerves, restoring the normal nerve impulses, decreasing the pain or numbness, and helping to balance the surrounding musculature.
In addition to adjusting the spine, Dr. Zager gives each patient specific exercises to help strengthen up their muscles which in turn helps keep the vertebrae in their proper positions. She also shows you techniques to help yourself at home, including massage techniques.
If you have neck or arm pain, call today for a consultation with Dr. Zager to see if chiropractic can help you.
Hi all,
I have been dealing with intense pain in my left shoulder. I was diagnosed with Brachial Neuritis after an I woke up in agony two weeks ago. I am hoping to have this diagnosis confirmed today after an MRI and Nerve Conduction Test with a Neurologist. I have dedicated my blog:

to communicating my trials as I battle this issue (I really don’t even know what it is) and I am hoping to pull as many people who are afflicted with it to my blog and offer this space as a forum and community to help each other.
Please stop by if you have any thoughts, rants, feelings, recommendations or just words of encouragement!!!
Thanks… Tweedle Beetle
