Numbness and tingling are warning signs that something isn’t working properly in your body. Some people feel pins-and-needles in their hands or feet. Others notice burning, weakness, or loss of sensation in the arms or legs. These symptoms can make everyday tasks difficult and may point to irritation of nerves in the spine.
At Move Chiropractic in Angier, Dr. David Carter takes numbness and tingling seriously. Our goal is to identify the cause and help restore proper function so you can feel and move normally again.

How Move Chiropractic Helps
