Chiropractic Care Provides Relief for Carpal Tunnel

Carpal Tunnel Got You in a Grip? How Chiropractic Care Can Offer Relief

That tingling, numbness, or pain shooting through your wrist and hand – sound familiar? If so, you might be experiencing carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), a common condition that can significantly impact your daily life. From typing on a computer to simply holding a cup of coffee, the discomfort can be frustrating and even debilitating.

While conventional treatments often focus on medication, injections, or even surgery, many people are finding effective relief through a more holistic approach: chiropractic care.

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which runs from your forearm into your palm, becomes compressed within the carpal tunnel – a narrow passageway in your wrist formed by bones and ligaments. This compression can lead to a range of uncomfortable symptoms, including:

▪ Numbness and tingling in the thumb, index, middle, and part of the ring finger.

▪ Pain that can radiate up your arm.

▪ Weakness in the hand, making it difficult to grip objects.

▪ A feeling of swelling in the fingers, even if there's no visible swelling.

▪ Symptoms that are often worse at night.

How Can Chiropractic Care Help? Chiropractors can help with carpal tunnel by decreasing muscle tension in the forearm, chest, and neck. Chiropractic adjustment of the neck and upper back can help decrease the effects of a disc herniation or disc bulge putting pressure on your nerves. Simple, effective exercises we provide can further ease tension, improve movement, and give your nerves the space they need.

If you're experiencing the frustrating symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome, consider exploring the potential benefits of chiropractic care. By addressing the underlying musculoskeletal issues and promoting optimal nerve function, chiropractic may offer a natural and effective path towards relief and improved hand function.
