Can chiropractic care ease the arm and hand pain that's ruining my golf game?
The nerves that supply your shoulders, arms and hands originate from the neck and upper-back. Spinal misalignments, called subluxations, may contribute to conditions such as bursitis, neuritis, tendonitis, epicondylitis, numbness, tingling, weakness or carpal tunnel syndrome.
If shoulder, arm and hand pain hinder your golf or tennis game, or if everyday tasks like dressing, using a computer or picking up your children cause discomfort, a subluxation may be present. Through careful examination, your chiropractor can often trace the source of your symptoms to the spine. The correction of spinal subluxations may eliminate the nerve pressure that has contributed to the malfunction and pain.
Ignoring the pain—or masking it with drugs—can cause serious damage to the muscles and tendons of your arm, shoulder or hand. A spinal evaluation and adjustment from your chiropractor may well solve your problem and get you back on the green sooner than you thought possible.
