Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Chiropractic Care: Finding Relief Naturally
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a common condition that affects many individuals who engage in repetitive motions, such as typing, texting, or performing assembly line work. Over time, these activities can lead to pain, tingling, numbness, and weakness in the fingers or hand.
What many people don’t realize is that the cause of their wrist problem may stem from functional changes in one or more joints in the neck, shoulder, elbow, or wrist. Biomechanical imbalances in these areas can irritate the nerves, leading to the symptoms associated with CTS.
At Casses Chiropractic Clinic, PC, we’re proud to help patients of all walks of life feel better and heal better when it comes to carpal tunnel pain.
How Chiropractic Care Can Help
At our practice, we offer a natural approach to treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Our experienced chiropractors will provide gentle care that addresses the problematic wrist and elbow, as well as the upper spine. By correcting any joint dysfunctions and biomechanical imbalances, we aim to relieve the underlying cause of your CTS symptoms.
In addition to chiropractic adjustments, we may recommend rest for the affected arm, cold therapy to reduce inflammation, and specific exercises to strengthen the wrist and hand. Wearing a splint or brace can also be beneficial in immobilizing the area and providing support.
In conjunction with chiropractic, laser therapy is often a modality added to care that may improve your results, especially with patients who are visiting us post-carpal tunnel surgery and find they’re left with scar tissue or inflammation.
