Frequently Asked Questions About C6-C7

What is the C6-C7 spinal segment?

The C6-C7 segment is located at the base of the cervical spine and is the most common area for cervical disc herniation and nerve compression. Problems at C6-C7 often cause neck pain that radiates into the arms, tingling in the fingers, and triceps weakness.

What exercises help C6-C7 disc herniation?

ELDOA exercises for C6-C7 are specifically designed to decompress this segment through axial elongation. The exercises use precise body positioning to create fascial tension that opens space between C6 and C7, helping relieve disc pressure, reduce nerve irritation, and alleviate arm tingling. Positions are held for 60 seconds.

Can ELDOA help with tingling and numbness from C6-C7?

Yes. Tingling and numbness in the arms or fingers from C6-C7 is typically caused by nerve compression at this segment. ELDOA decompression stretches create space between the vertebrae, reducing pressure on the C7 nerve root. Many people experience reduced tingling and improved arm sensation with consistent practice.
