Finding the cause and correcting it can lead to immediate relief. Nerves compressed by bones are often the cause of the symptoms associated with carpal tunnel syndrome. The median nerve that runs through the wrist begins its journey down the arm from the neck. The spinal nerves that exit the lower part of your neck give rise to the nerves that go into your shoulders, arm, wrists and hands. Finding the bones that are pressing on these nerves and restoring them to their proper position allows the nerves to function normally.

Proper care and management are essential to long term healing. Repetitive physical stress to the affected area needs to be identified and corrected. A proper ergonomic work environment is also critical to long term recovery.
