What Is Carpal Tunnel......
Carpal tunnel syndrome.... is numbness, tingling, weakness, and other problems in your hand because of pressure on the median nerve in your wrist.
The most common cause of this inflammation is often an underlying medical condition that causes swelling in the wrist or obstructed blood flow.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a Double Crush Syndrome. Click on the kink below to learn more on how Carpal Tunnel affects your arms aw well as your neck.

SELF CARE
IS VITALLY IMPORTANT!!
IMPORTANT MESSAGE On Carpal Tunnel Treatments:
FOR MAXIMUM results, it is vitally important to conduct self-care at home while in between your treatment sessions. Unfortunately, there is no cure for Carpal Tunnel, and 1 session a month will not give you the results that you are seeking. Depending on how bad the nerve pain is, depends on the treatment plan. BUT self-care is critical in order for maximum results. We can advise you on stretches that you can do at home and even show you some during your session time, but without self-care, the results may vary from little to none.
-
Please note that results for Carpal Tunnel Treatment vary from patient to patient. No treatment and patient are alike, therefore results vary.
-
Carpal Tunnel Treatment might/usually requires more than one session, depending on the severity of the nerve
-
Carpal Tunnel Treatment is not a 1 time quick fix. Please understand that Carpal Tunnel doesn't just simply act up out of nowhere, it slowly builds up over time. It might take 30 days to months to if not longer for the person to realize/be diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel. Treatment sessions are recommended to fully stabilize the nerve and routine sessions are also recommended once the nerve is stabilized to ensure no further flareup.
-
Carpal Tunnel Treatment is unfortunately a painful session. It is painful, for the session consists of treating the Median Nerve directly through your entire arm with deep pressure/techniques. Unfortunately there is no other way to address the Nerve, other than the arm area. Once after completing a session, the pain level will rise (but this is NORMAL) and the area will be inflamed for up to 48 hours (this too is NORMAL). This is the body's healing mechanism. The reason why it hurts more is that I address the concern/issue at the root of the problem, which is an area that hasn't been addressed. So by addressing it, it flares up and hurts more, but again for no more than 48 hours. Once the allowed time has passed, the pain and inflammation have lessened and you will feel the difference.
Treatments and Maintenance :
-
Please note that for maximum results we recommend a few option treatments to treat Carpal Tunnel that an individual can choose when booking and treating Carpal Tunnel - Options will be determined and advised by the therapist at the end of the initial visit/ assessment.
-
Option 1: A person, initially treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can be seen and treated 2 times a week for 4 consecutive weeks - this consistency in treatments will reduce the inflammation and assist in increasing the blood and oxygen to the nerve that was deprived - at the end of the 4 week treatment - there will be an assessment to determine how often treatments will need to be scheduled for maintenance and avoid further flare ups.
-
Option 2: A person, initially treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can be seen and treated 1 time per week for 4 consecutive weeks - this consistency in treatments will reduce the inflammation and assist in increasing the blood and oxygen to the nerve that was deprived - at the end of the 4 week treatment - there will be an assessment to determine how often treatments will need to be scheduled for maintenance and avoid further flare ups.
