What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
The carpal tunnel is a narrow passageway in the wrist formed by bones and ligaments. This tunnel protects the median nerve, which controls the sensation and movement of the thumb, index, middle, and part of the ring finger. When the tissues around the carpal tunnel swell, they press on the median nerve, causing the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome.

Causes of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Understanding and Addressing Them with Chiropractic Care
Carpal tunnel syndrome is more than just wrist pain; it is a complex issue with various triggers and causes. Understanding these causes is the first step toward effective treatment and relief. Chiropractic care offers a unique approach to treating different types of carpal tunnel syndrome by addressing their root causes.
Repetitive Movements
Repetitive activities can trigger carpal tunnel syndrome. We provide chiropractic treatments focused on realigning the wrist and reducing inflammation.
Carpal Tunnel Related to Pregnancy
Hormonal fluctuations and fluid retention during pregnancy can cause carpal tunnel syndrome. Our treatments focus on balancing these conditions to reduce the frequency of episodes.
Medical Conditions
Certain medical conditions can significantly increase the risk of developing carpal tunnel syndrome.
- Arthritis: Joint inflammation can put additional pressure on the median nerve, exacerbating carpal tunnel symptoms.
- Diabetes: This condition can affect blood circulation and nerve function, including the median nerve, increasing the likelihood of developing carpal tunnel syndrome.
- Thyroid Problems: Dysfunctions in the thyroid gland can cause fluid retention and other metabolic changes that contribute to swelling in the carpal tunnel.
- Obesity: Excess weight can increase pressure on the joints and nerves of the wrist, raising the risk of this condition.
- Fluid Retention: Conditions causing fluid retention, such as pregnancy or kidney failure, can lead to swelling in the carpal tunnel and pressure on the median nerve.
Addressing these underlying medical conditions can be a crucial part of treating carpal tunnel syndrome, and chiropractic care can offer complementary strategies to manage these conditions and reduce their impact.
Injuries
Injuries, especially to the wrist, can lead to post-traumatic carpal tunnel syndrome. Our expert care includes treatments focused on healing and realigning the body after injury, reducing the occurrence of carpal tunnel syndrome caused by past traumas.
Main Symptoms
The symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome usually develop gradually and can include:
- Numbness and Tingling: Mainly in the thumb, index, middle, and ring fingers.
- Pain: That can radiate from the wrist to the arm.
- Weakness: Difficulty holding small objects and performing fine motor tasks with the fingers.
