Do you experience tingling, numbness, or pain in your hands or wrists—especially while working at a desk, using a register, or on an assembly line? You may be dealing with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), and the good news is that relief may be closer than you think. At Health Touch Chiropractic in Tigard, OR, we offer safe, non-surgical options to help you feel better—naturally.
What Is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
CTS occurs when the median nerve—running through a narrow passageway in your wrist called the carpal tunnel—becomes compressed or irritated. This is often due to repetitive motions, prolonged wrist flexion, or inflammation from micro-traumas over time. Symptoms can include:
- Pain or tingling in the hand, fingers, or forearm
- Numbness and loss of grip strength
- Discomfort radiating up to the elbow or shoulder
While conventional treatments may involve painkillers, injections, or surgery, chiropractic offers a gentle, drug-free alternative that often leads to lasting relief—especially when addressed early.
How Chiropractic Can Help
At Health Touch Chiropractic, we tailor a treatment plan designed to reduce nerve pressure and restore function using a combination of techniques, which may include:
- Chiropractic adjustments to the wrist, elbow, and cervical spine
- Soft tissue work to release surrounding tension and scar tissue
- Custom bracing to reduce inflammation and support healing
- Restorative stretches and strengthening exercises
- Workplace ergonomic recommendations to prevent recurrence
- Targeted nutritional support, such as B6 supplementation
