Neurodynamics 

 

Are you experiencing pain, numbness, or tingling in your arms, legs, hands, or feet? You may be suffering from peripheral nerve entrapment, a condition where nerves are compressed or restricted as they pass through muscles, joints, or fascia. At River Forest Health and Wellness, we specialize in treating nerve-related issues with effective, non-invasive techniques like nerve gliding exercises and neurodynamics to restore nerve mobility and reduce pain.

 

What Is Peripheral Nerve Entrapment?

 

Peripheral nerve entrapment occurs when nerves are compressed or irritated, often due to overuse, poor posture, repetitive motions, or injury. Conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, and thoracic outlet syndrome are common examples of nerve entrapment. These conditions can cause symptoms such as:

 

• Pain

• Tingling or “pins and needles” sensation

• Numbness

• Muscle weakness

 

If left untreated, nerve entrapment can lead to chronic pain and loss of function.

 

How Nerve Gliding and Neurodynamics Help

 

At River Forest Health and Wellness, we use nerve gliding and neurodynamics as part of our treatment plan to relieve pressure on affected nerves. These techniques involve gentle, controlled movements designed to:

 

• Increase the mobility of trapped nerves

• Reduce inflammation around the nerve

• Alleviate pain and discomfort

• Restore normal nerve function

 

By improving the flexibility and mobility of your nerves, we help relieve symptoms and prevent further damage.

•  Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques to release tight muscles and fascia that may be contributing to nerve compression.
