Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Relief in Edina
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) results from repetitive motion, such as typing, texting, or performing assembly line work. Over time, such actions may produce pain and injury. Most people with CTS experience tingling or numbness in the fingers or hand or weakness in the hand.
What many don’t realize is that the cause of their wrist problem may be functional changes to one or more joints in the neck, shoulder, elbow, or wrist.
Our Natural Approach
We provide gentle chiropractic care to address the problematic wrist and elbow and also adjust your upper spine. Resting the affected arm, applying cold to decrease inflammation, and performing specific exercises are advisable. You also can wear a splint or brace to immobilize the area.
Our holistic program of care addresses not only physical symptoms but also considers lifestyle factors, nutrition, stress management, and overall well-being. Some people experience relief relatively quickly, while others may require ongoing care and lifestyle adjustments. Ergonomic changes and physical therapy may also be suggested, depending on the severity of the problem.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I wear a wrist brace for my CTS?
I’ve previously had surgery for my CTS; can chiropractic still benefit me?
That’s because once your body undergoes a surgery like carpal tunnel surgery, it’s not in the original design. That’s why we encourage those with CTS to seek chiropractic first before surgery.
