Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Natural Relief and Treatment Options
Are you experiencing wrist pain, numbness, or tingling that radiates into your fingers or up your arm?
If so, you might be suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, a condition that affects many individuals in Belmont and Medowie. At BodyFix Chiropractic, led by Dr. Adam Wild, we specialize in providing natural pain relief from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome without the need for drugs or surgery.
Understanding Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which runs through a narrow passageway in your wrist called the carpal tunnel, becomes compressed. This can lead to debilitating symptoms, including:
- Wrist pain,
- Numbness or tingling in the fingers,
- Weakness in the hand or difficulty gripping objects.
Failure to treat this condition can result in chronic pain and even missed work days, making it essential to seek the right diagnosis and treatment.
Common Causes of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
At BodyFix Chiropractic, we understand that effective treatment begins with identifying the underlying causes. Common factors contributing to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome include:
Cervical Subluxation
Misalignments in the neck can pinch nerves that affect the arms and wrists, often caused by poor posture or previous injuries.
Local Inflammation
Overuse or injury can lead to inflammation in the wrist, causing swelling that compresses the median nerve and exacerbates symptoms.
Poor Posture and Ergonomics
Excessive forward head posture from looking down at devices or improper workstation ergonomics can contribute to nerve compression.
Hormonal Changes
Conditions such as pregnancy or diabetes can also increase the risk of developing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome due to swelling and hormonal fluctuations.
Comprehensive Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is highly effective for treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome because it addresses the root causes of nerve compression. Here’s how we can help:
Thorough Examination
Dr. Adam Wild and our team will conduct a complete assessment of your wrist, arm, and spine to identify misalignments and other contributing factors.
Chiropractic Adjustments
By realigning the spine and neck, we can alleviate pressure on the median nerve, leading to improved function and reduced pain.
Therapeutic Exercises
We will guide you through specific exercises designed to strengthen the wrist and improve flexibility, helping to prevent future issues.
