What Is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal tunnel syndrome arises when swelling or repetitive pressure crowds the median nerve within the wrist’s narrow tunnel. Common symptoms include:
- Numbness or tingling in the thumb, index and middle fingers
- Hand weakness or a tendency to drop objects
- Wrist pain that radiates up the forearm
- Stiffness upon waking
Early intervention can prevent permanent nerve damage and muscle weakness.
What Causes Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Any activity or condition that increases pressure in the wrist can trigger CTS, such as:
- Repetitive hand motions (typing, assembly-line work, racket sports)
- Wrist injuries (sprains, fractures)
- Fluid retention (pregnancy, menopause)
- Metabolic disorders (diabetes, thyroid imbalances)
- Arthritis (rheumatoid or osteoarthritis)
Identifying your risk factors helps us design a targeted treatment plan.
How Chiropractic Care Treats CTS
Our non-surgical approach focuses on relieving nerve compression and restoring healthy function:
- Wrist Mobilizations—gentle gliding techniques to improve tunnel space
- Soft-Tissue Therapy—myofascial release on forearm and wrist muscles to reduce tightness
- Ergonomic & Posture Coaching—workstation and wrist-position adjustments to minimize stress
- Therapeutic Exercises—nerve gliding drills and strengthening routines for wrist stability
- Modalities—ultrasound or electrical stimulation to calm inflammation
These modalities combine to decrease pain, improve grip strength and help you return to daily tasks without surgery.
