Finger numbness often shows up without warning.
You work at a computer all day.
You train.
You spend too much time on your phone.
Then it starts.
Tingling.
A numb or heavy feeling.
Sometimes even a loss of grip strength.
In many cases, the issue is not in the fingers.
Where it really comes from
The nerves that supply the fingers start in the neck, pass through the shoulder, and travel down the arm and forearm.
When muscles in these areas become tight, they can compress the nerves and restrict blood flow.
That’s when sensation changes.
Why sports massage helps
Sports massage therapy focuses on where tension builds up.
Not just where symptoms are felt.
It helps to
- release pressure around the arm nerves
- improve neck and shoulder mobility
- stimulate circulation to restore warmth and sensation
- reduce muscle fatigue caused by repetitive movements
The approach is precise, gentle, and adapted to how you move every day.
At Clinique RESET in Old Montreal, we commonly see this issue in
- office workers in Old Port and Griffintown
- artists, creators, massage therapists, and trainers
- athletes who heavily use their hands
Repetition adds up.
Day after day.
When to book a session
If your fingers tingle frequently.
If numbness comes back often.
Or if it’s starting to feel normal instead of occasional.
That’s a sign to get it checked early.
Sports massage therapy can help restore normal sensation and prevent the problem from becoming chronic.
