How to Fix a Pinched Nerve in the Neck | Dr. Jon Saunders

How to Fix a Pinched Nerve in the Neck | Dr. Jon Saunders, Newmarket Chiropractor
A pinched nerve in the neck, or cervical radiculopathy, can be very painful and debilitating. In this video, Dr. Jon Saunders will show you how to get rid of pinched nerve in your neck at home. There will be 6 stretches shown to help give you some relief. The first 3 will be more general and focus on decompression or traction of your neck and the next 3 will be more specific to select nerve roots, using nerve flossing techniques.

The main causes of a pinched nerve in the neck are a disc bulge or herniation, degenerative disc disease, bones spurs (osteophytes), and tight neck muscles. Poor postural patterns like forward head posture or a loss of normal curve in the neck can also contribute to a pinched nerve in the neck. It happens most often in your 40's and usually only involves one arm. Signs and symptoms are pain/tingling/numbness in the neck, arm, hand, between shoulder blades and sometimes headaches. Numbness and tingling and hand and arm weakness can also occur.
Improvement usually takes between 4-6 months, but in some cases much longer, up to 24+ months. The good news, most will recover without needing surgery.
Let me know in the comments below if you have any questions or which of my 6 stretches for a pinched neck nerve worked best fro you.

I am beyond appreciative to you for this video and info. I was in so much pain from a pinched nerve in my neck due to osteophytes and bone spurs with herniated disks I was about to just give up on life. I coul not sit , stand , sleep walk or anything without my neck, spine, shoulder and arm to the elbow feeling like hot lava and electrical shocks running through it non stop. I really was ready to go t sleep and never wake up. You saved my life literally by giving me some relief . The pain is still there but It is less intense and manageable .

Thank you for making this video. My husband has a pinched nerve in his shoulder that radiates down to his hand and fingers. 😢 He was prescribed pain medicine and couldn't sleep,so the spine specialist prescribed him something to help him sleep. He had a bad reaction to it and was in intensive care for nearly a week and sedated for three days. He's out and back to work, but the pain is still there with the tingling. I shared this video with him and hope it helps. He's 60 and otherwise pretty healthy. He threw that medicine out.

[@drjonsaunders]

I hope he finds my video helpful!

[@markfinlay422]

These exercises are amazing. I've tried many other exercises for the trapped nerve in my right arm and this video is the only one that actually has any notable effect.

​@drjonsaunders how to know which nerve flossing to do? Or is it fine to do all 3?

Please suggest.

Just found your channel and will be implementing these exercises. All my pain is in right side: incredible weak shoulder, tendonitis in right arm all down to my wrist as well as terrible neck pain with DDD and low back pain 24/7. I have been seeing chiro for years. I have never seen these techniques. Doctor can't seem to give me relief on my right neck/scapula pain after 3 months still suffering. Thank you!

[@i_want_my_mtv]

Been watching, bookmarking a dozen pinched nerve stretch videos, and this one is my favorite to rewatch, find it useful, helpful, educational, super comforting, and think I now have a YT-crush on Dr. Jon- sorry you're adorable and we should have dinner haha. Traction with towel was helping give me some relief (too painful pulling with my own hands). I've started doing daily warm bath with 1.25cup epsom salts and allowing my head to completely free float (bob) in the water with its full weight for awhile which does hurt, but along with thumb-massaging my neck muscles in the warm water, it seems to be helping reduce the intensity of the nerve pain and rolling it back out of my arm and back into the shoulder/localized spot. I haven't seen a single video mention Epson Salts bath neck massage, so check it out and if it does help after 3x, let the chat know. If widely useful, may be something the good Dr. would mention in another pinched nerve advice video for 'right now' relief. until we can unchain from our desk jobs, good luck, be well. (That reminds me, Dr, a video suggestion would be, once repaired for the nth time, what daily or weekly maintenance stretch/moves keep the pinched nerve at bay? Should we incorporate something religiously to self protect? ty!)

Ok, wow. I can't believe I found a cure to the agony I've been in for months. I´ve done every stretch on god's great earth and painkillers have been my companion for months. Dr. Jon - I can't thank you enough!! As I tried the specific stretches I felt such a relief - God bless you!

After years of pain and trying different treatments the specific nerve flossing techniques here gave me almost instant relief, although it isn't continuous. Thank you for sharing these and I'd like to know the recommendation and prognosis if the nerve flossing technique helps so what else should I focus on to eliminate the pain entirely?

Hard to say without seeing you as a patient, please ask your doctor.

I continually get a pinched nerve, it's a sharp shooting pain in my right shoulder blade, I can lean my head to my left shoulder but if I try to lean my head to the right I can't, there will be a sharp shooting pain that goes from my right shoulder blade into my chest and shooting down my right arm, arm tingles and falls asleep at night. Sadly it will take months for me to be back to normal. I will try your stretches, thank you.

[@drjonsaunders]

I wish you a quick recovery!

Great to hear! Keep it up!

I was diagnosed with cervical nerve pinching. I was doing decompression and tens treatment with a chiropractor who was too expensive to continue treatment. I have found some of your exercises to be quite beneficial. I have extreme tingling/pins and needles down both arms to my hands. Sleeping is very uncomfortable and painful. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[@drjonsaunders]

Sorry to hear this....depending on the cause it can take a long time to improve...please listen to your doctor.

I've recently discovered your channel and I love your simple way teaching! I am currently doing your neck exercises and hope to see results soon. But for about a year I've had pain from my shoulder down thru my tricep (?). I've been to a chiropractor but no help. I do not have pain all the time, just when I move my arm a certain way - and putting my arm at a 90* angle is makes pain radiate in my arm! So I am wondering if that is showing the area or nerve that I need to work on. I can do it if I modify it and pull my chin in. Do you think that the fact that the 90* position triggers the pain is identifying the problematic nerve? Thank you

[@drjonsaunders]

Thanks for your feedback...it does seem it could be a nerve...see your doctor as they should be able to diagnose you accurately...all the best!

Hello, I know this has been a while, but I just found this channel. I'm wondering if you have found why your arm hurts when you bend it. Mine does that too! Very painful. Any help you have is greatly appreciated!

[@goliac492]
