Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is when there is a compressive entrapment of the median nerve by the carpal tunnel in the wrist. The small bones in the wrist form the carpal tunnel. This Condition is aggravated by repetitive wrist activity. It usually begins in the dominant hand.
Symptoms include pain, numbness, tingling in the thumb, index, middle fingers, and half the ring finger. Carpal tunnel will usually wake up a person with deep, burning, and pricking pain in the hands.
Chiropractic, Acupuncture, and Massage Therapy can help many people with carpal tunnel syndrome.
Chiropractor's will evaluate the small bones in the wrist and find fixations in the carpal tunnel region. A chiropractor will adjust these bones and relieve the compression of the median nerve. There are exercises that will also be given to rebuild the tunnel so the bones don't fall back down and compress the nerve.
Acupuncture will work on the points in the meridians to relive the pain and move the stagnant blood.
Massage therapy will relax the muscles in the arm and hands to relieve the compression of the muscles on the nerve.
