Carpal Tunnel

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) has become one of the most widespread occupational health problems we face today. It affects millions of people a year, and with our growing reliance on computers there seems to be no end in sight.The syndrome is caused by pressure on the median nerve just above the wrist. Pressure on this nerve can be caused by an injury or sustained use from common activities like typing, chopping, hammering, or pushing. Symptoms of CTS range from wrist pain, numbness, tingling, burning, weakness or loss of grip strength, and loss of sleep due to discomfort.

There are a number of different ways to treat this condition. In most cases, a chiropractic adjustment to the affected area is an extremely effective solution. In some cases, a misalignment in either the back or neck can cause this condition, and chiropractic manipulation of the neck and/or spine can also serve as an effective treatment option. These treatments, along with physical therapy, stretching, and strengthening exercises, can in most cases effectively alleviate and eventually eliminate the symptoms associated with CTS.

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • "I've been deathly afraid of chiropractors since I was in high school and had a bad experience with one. Lillian changed my tune! she is one of the nicest, most caring professionals I have ever dealt with. She is understanding and sensitive to her patients. I highly recommend her!"
  • "I'm super impressed with Dr. Lillian's healing touch and remarkable understanding of the human spine. I've only had 2 adjustments and I can feel the work going on afterwards. Very helpful."
  • "Adjustments with Lillian have been transformative. I love Lillian's gentle approach(she's never jostling me around and twisting my spine like all the other chiropractors I've had in the past). I can't imagine going to see anyone else, Lillian is one of a kind!"
