Chiropractic Care for Extremities (Union, NJ)

Chiropractic Care for Extremities in Union, NJ

Pain or discomfort in the arms, shoulders, hips, knees, or feet can dramatically affect work, movement, and daily activities. At Touchstone Chiropractic Center, we provide natural and non-invasive care for extremity-related conditions — helping patients move better, feel better, and return to the activities they enjoy.

Chiropractic adjustments support both spinal and extremity mechanics, improving how the body functions as a whole.

What Are Extremity Injuries?

Extremities include the joints and soft tissues of the:

  • Shoulders
  • Elbows
  • Wrists & Hands
  • Hips
  • Knees
  • Ankles
  • Feet


Because movement depends on a combination of joints, muscles, nerves, and alignment, injuries or compensation in one region often affect another.

Common Extremity Conditions We See

We care for patients experiencing:

✔ Shoulder pain & impingement
✔ Arm & leg pain
Carpal tunnel & wrist discomfort
✔ Hip or knee strain
✔ Plantar fasciitis & foot pain
✔ Rotator cuff–related pain
✔ Tendon irritation or overuse injuries
✔ Soft tissue inflammation
✔ Nerve-related symptoms (numbness, tingling, weakness)

Why Extremity Pain Happens

Extremity discomfort may be influenced by:

  • Poor biomechanics or posture
  • Nerve interference from spinal misalignment
  • Overuse or repetitive strain
  • Occupational or ergonomic stress
  • Sports & athletic movement
  • Joint inflammation or instability
  • Foot and gait mechanics
  • Soft tissue or tendon irritation


Many patients are surprised to learn that extremity pain can originate in the spine or nervous system — a connection highlighted across your existing pages, such as the
Arm & Leg Pain page noting that nerve pathways span from the spine through the extremities.

Symptoms May Include

  • Stiffness or reduced mobility
  • Sharp or aching discomfort
  • Numbness or tingling
  • Burning or radiating sensations
  • Poor grip strength or coordination
  • Fatigue during movement
  • Postural imbalance
  • Difficulty lifting, walking, running, or driving


These symptoms may appear gradually (overuse or posture) or suddenly (sports, work, or impact-related).

Our Extremity-Based Chiropractic Approach

Our care may include:

  • Extremity joint adjustments
  • Spinal alignment & mobility work
  • Soft tissue or myofascial support
  • Corrective exercise strategies
  • Ergonomic & posture recommendations
  • Gait and movement analysis
  • Nervous system–focused wellness care


Each treatment plan is personalized to your lifestyle, goals, and symptom patterns.

How Chiropractic Helps With Extremity Pain

Chiropractic care focuses on improving alignment, nerve communication, and joint mobility throughout the body — not just the spine.

Potential benefits include:

✔ Reduced pain & inflammation
✔ Improved mobility & strength
✔ Better coordination & flexibility
✔ Enhanced posture & movement patterns
✔ Reduced nerve irritation
✔ Improved athletic performance & endurance
✔ Better daily function at work & home

Extremity adjustments may be paired with spinal care to support whole-body mechanics.

Extremity Conditions We Treat

We offer specialized chiropractic care for:

Shoulder Pain

Painful or stiff shoulders can disrupt sleep, work, and daily movement. Your current Shoulder Pain page highlights that shoulder dysfunction often stems from the neck and upper back alignment

Carpal Tunnel & Wrist Pain

Carpal tunnel can cause numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hands and wrists. The existing page connects carpal tunnel to nerve compression and spinal origin

Arm & Leg Pain

Arm or leg discomfort may be related to nerve pathways originating from the cervical or lumbar spine — a key concept emphasized on your current Arm & Leg Pain page

Plantar Fasciitis & Foot Pain

Plantar fasciitis affects the bottom of the foot and heel and may impact movement, standing, and gait. Your Plantar Fasciitis page highlights inflammation & weight-bearing patterns as key contributors
