CHIROPRACTIC CARE FOR CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME
Chiropractors treat carpal tunnel syndrome by addressing nerve compression and biomechanical issues throughout the entire arm and neck. Treatment combines specific adjustments of the wrist, elbow, and cervical spine with soft tissue therapy to reduce inflammation around the median nerve.
Chiropractors also provide ergonomic guidance, strengthening exercises, and stretching techniques to help prevent symptom recurrence. Many patients experience significant relief from numbness, tingling, and hand pain through this comprehensive approach, often avoiding the need for surgical intervention when treated early.
OUR APPROACH IS UNIQUE AND DIFFERENT
Most people try to deal with their carpal tunnel pain using prescription or over-the-counter drugs. This may help to relieve the symptoms in the short-term, but not only are patients dealing with side effects, the underlying issue goes unaddressed.
Chiropractic treatment is a natural practice that addresses the structural cause that leads to the majority of carpal tunnel pain. Following a thorough chiropractic assessment aimed at ruling out other issues and finding the exact source of the problem, a personalized recovery plan is developed. Gentle adjustments to the spine & extremities can bring instant relief and restore long term health to the wrists and the entire body. Call our team at Integrated Medical Group today to set up a consultation and bring an end to the pain in your carpal tunnel challenges.

WHAT IS CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME?
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the palm of the hand, becomes pressed or squeezed at the wrist. The median nerve provides feeling to the palm side of the thumb and to the index, middle, and part of the ring fingers. It also controls some small muscles at the base of the thumb.
Sometimes, thickening from the lining of irritated tendons or other swelling & inflammation can narrow the tunnel and cause the median nerve to be compressed. The result may be numbness, weakness, or sometimes pain in the hand and wrist, or occasionally in the forearm and arm. Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common and widely known of the entrapment neuropathies.
Women are three times as prone to developing the condition as men.
Carpal Tunnel Symptoms Include:
Loss Of Strength
Sensation Of Pins & Needles In The Hand
Weak Grip Strength
Forearm Tenderness
