Carpal Tunnel
If you use your wrist or hand a lot and you start feeling an ache that won’t go away, chances are good you have carpal tunnel. This condition is becoming increasingly common as more people work on computers.
Thankfully, you don’t have to live in pain. At HealthyWays Integrated Wellness Solutions, we help patients restore their hands to optimal health and relieve chronic dysfunction, helping you thrive and embrace your passions again.
What Is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
This common condition affects many individuals, especially those who work in jobs that require repetitive movements of the wrist and hand. When the median nerve, which runs through a narrow passageway in the wrist, gets compressed, nerve flow to the hand is restricted, causing pain.
Symptoms include pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand and wrist. Other conditions, like tendonitis, arthritis, and thoracic outlet syndrome, have similar symptoms. We’ll start with a careful diagnosis first before customizing a plan of care to your needs.
A Comprehensive Response to Pain
Our chiropractors are trained to identify and provide care for a range of musculoskeletal conditions, including those affecting the wrist and hand. Adjustments can help relieve pressure on the median nerve by realigning the bones. This can reduce inflammation and improve nerve function, leading to relief.
Manual therapy can also be effective in treating carpal tunnel syndrome. We use hands-on techniques to manipulate the soft tissues and joints of the affected area. This can help improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility, all of which help lessen your experience of pain.
