Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a common condition that affects the hand and wrist, causing pain, tingling, numbness, and weakness. It occurs when the median nerve becomes compressed as it travels through the carpal tunnel in the wrist. While surgery is a traditional treatment option, many people seek natural alternatives before committing to an invasive procedure. At Dalton Chiropractic, we believe in addressing the root cause of the issue through non-invasive, holistic care.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome often results from repetitive wrist motions, poor ergonomics, underlying conditions like arthritis or diabetes, or even prolonged keyboard use. These factors can lead to inflammation and pressure on the median nerve, producing painful symptoms that interfere with daily life.
Chiropractic care offers a natural, drug-free approach to treating CTS. At Dalton Chiropractic, we focus on realigning the spine and extremities to improve overall nerve function and reduce pressure on the median nerve.
Gentle chiropractic adjustments to the wrist, arm, and spine can relieve misalignments that may be contributing to nerve compression. These adjustments help restore proper joint motion, which can alleviate symptoms and improve function.
We often use myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and stretching techniques to reduce tension in the muscles and connective tissues around the wrist and forearm. This helps reduce inflammation and improves blood flow to the affected area.
Specific exercises can strengthen the muscles of the hand, wrist, and forearm, improving posture and reducing repetitive strain. We work with patients to develop customized home exercise programs that support recovery and prevent flare-ups.
We provide education on workplace ergonomics and daily habits that may be aggravating symptoms. Small changes, such as adjusting keyboard height or taking frequent breaks, can significantly reduce wrist strain.
If you’re experiencing persistent wrist pain, tingling, or weakness, it’s important to seek professional care. Early intervention can prevent permanent nerve damage and may help you avoid surgery altogether.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can be painful and disruptive, but surgery isn’t your only option. We specialize in natural, effective alternatives that target the source of your symptoms. Through personalized chiropractic care, soft tissue therapy, and lifestyle changes, you can find lasting relief - without the risks or recovery time associated with surgery.
