Carpal Tunnel

There are many different work injuries you can incur that vary depending on your job. For those that work on a computer and type all day, carpal tunnel syndrome is a common injury. This condition causes wrist pain that can be debilitating and make it hard to do everyday tasks. However, we can help. At Back in Balance Wellness Center, serving Bangor and Ellsworth, ME, our specialists provide a variety of treatment methods to alleviate carpal tunnel pain.

What Is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a repetitive motion injury that is felt primarily in the wrists and hand. It is frequently caused by typing and poor work ergonomics. A person with carpal tunnel syndrome has this wrist pain because of a compressed median nerve, which runs through the forearm and hand. This causes numbness and tingling. In some cases, carpal tunnel syndrome can lead to other problems if the pain is not addressed. The pain can pass through the neck, shoulder, and arm.

How Our Chiropractor Can Help

When you first visit us, our chiropractor will examine your wrist and diagnose your pain. We will create an individualized treatment plan unique to your condition. Our chiropractor may use adjustments to alleviate pressure on the median nerve. At our facility, we also offer massage therapy and acupuncture, which can relieve wrist pain and improve blood flow. These methods also reduce inflammation and promote natural healing in the body. Our chiropractor can also give you exercises and use physical therapy techniques to improve your range of motion in your wrist and arm.

Preventing and Reducing Further Injury

Chiropractic care is all about getting to the source of an injury and allowing the body to heal itself. If you have carpal tunnel syndrome, our chiropractor will give you lifestyle tips to help you avoid recurring wrist pain. This includes using proper work ergonomics. You may need a wrist support for your keyboard. It is also important to use proper posture. Take frequent breaks from repetitive motions to avoid developing carpal tunnel syndrome.
