Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
A job with repetitive tasks such as typing, writing can end up developing the condition known as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The syndrome is named for the tunnel surrounding the nerves connecting your wrist, hand and fingers. Overly stressing the median nerve can lead to the aching wrist and numb fingers associated with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
Early intervention, especially physical therapy, may help you avoid surgery. Building flexibility and strength through the help of the physical therapy, may result in in easing inflammation and decreasing pressure on the median nerve.
Treatment
We will evaluate the cause of your hand wrist, or elbow pain. After your evaluation, we’ll use therapeutic techniques to get rid of the pain as soon as possible. After that, we’ll begin to focus on building up your range of motion, especially through stretching and other flexibility maneuvers. Finally, exercises for building strength will be added, so that after your physical therapy course of treatment is over, you can maintain your pain free life.
When you’re ready to get started, contact our office to set up an appointment to get yourself on the road to ridding yourself of your hand, wrist and/or elbow pain.
