Carpal Tunnel
Dr. Baker – Your Royse City & Rockwall Chiropractor
Are you suffering with carpal tunnel syndrome?
We understand the horrible impact pain can have on your life. But we have some fantastic news for you: You don’t have to live with that pain any longer.
The most important thing is your health. When you feel good physically, it contributes to better health in so many ways: Improved mood and mental outlook, increased longevity, weight stabilization, and less risk of disease.
Just imagine how eliminating carpal tunnel syndrome will improve your life in every way!
What is Causing Your Pain?
Carpal tunnel syndrome is associated with numbness, tingling, pain, and weakness in your wrist and/or hand. The cause of these symptoms is from something putting pressure on the median nerve in your wrist.
This nerve, along with several tendons, travels from your forearm to your hand through what’s known as the carpal tunnel. If you’re experiencing any inflammation or swelling, this makes the tunnel smaller, resulting in pressure on the median nerve. So the real question is, what’s causing that inflammation.
This can be due to disease, repetitive hand movements, or misalignments elsewhere in your body. It may sound strange, but often the misalignment that contributes to carpal tunnel syndrome occurs within the bones, ligaments, and muscles in your neck.
How We Can Help You
Chiropractic care treats problems, not symptoms. The first step is to diagnose what is causing your carpal tunnel problem. And make no mistake, getting a proper diagnosis is something you should do as early as possible.
There are a number of treatment options once we know the cause, and these can include trigger point therapy, stretching and strengthening the muscles in your wrist and hand, joint manipulation, or realignment.
When your body, particularly your spine, is out of alignment, this puts undue pressure on your nervous system, which can result in problems everywhere and anywhere. It has to do with how your brain and body communicate (through your nervous system), and the corresponding disruptions in that communication.
Please be aware that surgery and medications, while also risky, do nothing to treat the problem. Their only concern is treating the symptoms. Which is why carpal tunnel often returns in patients who choose that route.
Don’t Take Our Word For It
Jerry Rice, former 49ers All-Pro Wide Receiver says this about chiropractic care: “Most injuries require chiropractic care. It works better for me than anything else.”
Natural health expert, Dr. Joseph Mercola, says, “One of the major benefits of choosing chiropractic over a drug solution is that the former can help relieve your pain while offering you whole-body benefits.”
