Carpal Tunnel
There are a number of different ways to treat carpal tunnel. In most cases,
a chiropractic adjustment to the affected area is extremely effective.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) has become one of the most widespread
occupational health problems we face today. It affects millions of people a
year, and with our growing reliance on computers there seems to be no end in
sight. The syndrome is caused by pressure on the median nerve just above the
wrist. Pressure on this nerve can be caused by an injury or sustained use from
common activities like typing, chopping, hammering, or pushing. Symptoms of CTS
range from wrist pain, numbness, tingling, burning, weakness or loss of grip
strength, and loss of sleep due to discomfort.
There are a number of different ways to treat this condition. In most cases,
a chiropractic adjustment to the affected area is an extremely effective
solution. In some cases, a misalignment in either the back or neck can cause
this condition, and chiropractic manipulation of the neck and/or spine can also
serve as an effective treatment option. These treatments, along with physical
therapy, stretching, and strengthening exercises, can in most cases effectively
alleviate and eventually eliminate the symptoms associated with CTS. Contact us
