Carpal tunnel syndrome

Carpal tunnel syndrome, as well as any number of other local entrapment of a nerve, is a type of a condition that chiropractic can treat very effectively. This problem can be complicated because it often results from multiple causes, rarely just an impingement at the carpal tunnel. To solve the issue it is necessary to trace the nerve back up into the neck because you can have multiple levels of entrapment, and if you’ve only fixed one then you have only fixed part of the problem. The treatment of it is often times at the wrist, the elbow, shoulder, neck, or somewhere in between. Getting to the true cause and correcting it without surgery is what chiropractic is all about.
