Arm and shoulder pain is one of the most common issues people deal with over a lifetime. Most assume medication or surgery are their only options. In reality, chiropractic care is a powerful, natural way to heal the underlying cause of arm pain rather than just covering up the symptoms.
Arm pain can come from many sources, and very often the real problem is not in the arm at all. Irritated or compressed nerves in the neck and upper spine can refer pain, numbness, and tingling all the way down the arm into the hand. That is why a Tampa chiropractor who evaluates your spine and nervous system, not just the spot that hurts, can make such a difference.
At Mast Health, Dr. Nenos performs a full evaluation to pinpoint exactly what is driving your symptoms. From there, he works to correct misalignments in the spine and extremities that place pressure on your nerves and joints. Because chiropractic care is noninvasive, you avoid the downtime and side effects that come with surgery and long term medication, and you address the source of the pain instead of chasing it.
There are many reasons you might be feeling pain in your arms, from lifting something heavy or sleeping in an odd position to years of repetitive strain at work. Common causes we treat in Tampa include:
Nerves that are irritated in the neck or upper back can send pain, numbness, and tingling down the arm. This is one of the most common and most overlooked sources of arm pain.
Pressure on the median nerve at the wrist causes pain, numbness, and tingling through the hand and forearm, often worse at night.
Inflammation in the joints of the shoulder, elbow, or wrist can make the arm painful and stiff to move.
Inflammation of the fluid filled sac that cushions a joint leads to pain and swelling, most often in the shoulder or elbow.
Inflammation of a tendon causes pain, stiffness, and swelling, frequently from repetitive motion.
Inflammation of the tendons that attach at the elbow, usually from repeated gripping or swinging motions, which can be sharp and persistent.
The group of muscles and tendons that lift and rotate the arm can become strained or torn, making the shoulder painful and weak.
Stiffness and pain that gradually limit how far you can move the shoulder, often following injury or a period of disuse.
Repeated motions at a desk, on the job, or in the gym wear on the muscles, tendons, and joints of the arm over time.
Slouching forces the muscles and joints of the neck, shoulders, and arms to work harder than they should, a major and very fixable driver of arm pain.
Dr. Nenos specializes in spinal and musculoskeletal health. The vertebrae of your spine protect your nervous system, and even small misalignments can place real pressure on the nerves that travel into your arms. Combine that with how much we ask of our arms every day, and pain is no surprise. Our job is to keep your spine and extremities aligned, mobile, and healthy so you can live pain free.

Yes. Many cases of arm pain originate from irritated nerves or misalignments in the neck and upper spine. A chiropractor can identify the source, relieve the nerve pressure, and address the muscles and joints involved, often without medication or surgery.
Nerves that exit the spine in your neck travel all the way down each arm. When one of those nerves is compressed or irritated, you can feel pain, numbness, or tingling far from the actual source. This is called referred pain, and it is why evaluating the spine is so important.
It depends on the cause and how long you have had the issue. Many Tampa patients notice improvement within the first few visits, and Dr. Nenos tracks your progress with objective benchmarks so you always know how your body is responding.
No referral is needed. You can book directly as a new patient with Mast Health.
