What we do

How we treat it

  1. We find out where the nerve is being irritated and rule out anything that needs a doctor instead.
  2. Hands-on treatment to settle the symptoms, then movement that gives the nerve room.
  3. A plan for flare-ups, so you know what to do on a bad morning.
  4. Progressive strengthening to help stop the same episode coming back.
