How do I relieve a pinched nerve in my neck or back?

A pinched nerve happens when something - a disc, a joint, or tight muscle - presses on a nerve, causing pain, tingling or weakness that can travel into an arm or leg. The relief almost always comes from creating space around the nerve.

Decompression in suspension straps lengthens the spine and opens the space where nerves exit, which can take the pressure off. The work is slow and supported, so you never push into pain.

If you have significant weakness, numbness or it is getting worse, see a doctor promptly. Otherwise, start gently and let space do the work.
