Arm or Leg Numbness and Tingling
Relief for Arm and Leg Numbness and Tingling at Orion Physical Therapy
If you’ve been experiencing numbness, tingling, or that “pins and needles” sensation in your arms or legs, you’re not alone. Numbness and tingling are common symptoms that can arise from issues such as nerve compression, circulation problems, or underlying health conditions. At Orion Physical Therapy, Orion Wilson provides targeted treatment to relieve numbness, address the underlying causes, and help you regain comfort and function.
Why Do I Feel Numbness and Tingling in My Arms or Legs?
Numbness and tingling in the limbs can stem from various causes, including:
- Nerve Compression: Conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, or herniated discs can compress nerves, causing sensations of numbness or tingling.
- Circulatory Issues: Poor blood flow to the arms or legs may lead to a “falling asleep” sensation, especially after prolonged sitting or holding certain positions.
- Underlying Conditions: Health issues such as diabetes, arthritis, or even injuries can contribute to nerve irritation or damage, leading to persistent numbness.
Personalized Treatment Approach to Alleviate Numbness and Tingling
At Orion Physical Therapy, we take a holistic approach to identifying the cause of your numbness and creating a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Comprehensive Evaluation and Diagnosis
We start with a thorough assessment to determine the root cause of your symptoms. Whether it’s due to nerve compression, muscle tension, or circulation issues, we design a treatment plan to address these underlying factors.
Manual Therapy for Nerve and Muscle Relief
Hands-on techniques are often used to reduce nerve compression, ease muscle tension, and improve circulation in affected areas. Techniques such as soft tissue massage, nerve glides, and joint mobilization can help alleviate sensations of numbness.
Targeted Exercises for Strength and Flexibility
Strengthening and flexibility exercises are essential to support proper posture and movement, which relieve pressure on nerves. We’ll guide you through exercises that restore strength to your neck, back, and limbs, helping reduce symptoms and prevent recurrence.
Posture and Ergonomic Training
Improper posture or work-related positions can aggravate nerve compression. We teach you how to improve your posture, adjust your workspace ergonomics, and modify everyday movements to reduce strain and prevent numbness.
Mobility and Circulation Enhancement
Improving mobility and circulation helps ensure your nerves receive sufficient blood flow and nutrients. Our program includes gentle stretching and mobility work to boost circulation, prevent stiffness, and encourage healing.

★★★★★ 5/5
I got so lucky finding Orion. I literally chose him because he was the closest PT to my house. I had no idea how good he was! His level of personal service was outstanding! He contacted me several times in between appointments to check in on my well being. His technique was excellent and he pushed me as much as I was willing and then helped me to go a bit further to speed up my recovery. I couldn’t have been more happy with my experience. I strongly recommend him.

Very knowledgeable and articulate. I was concerned about my progress recovering after shoulder surgery despite regular therapy with another therapist, so i made an appointment with Dr. Orion. He listened intently and in a single session he was able find and correct several gaps in my current regiment and explained very clearly what I needed to do to optimize recovery. After the new stretches and exercises we went through I was able to make the most progress i’ve had in a single session! I highly recommend Dr. Orion to anyone.
