Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

About Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition that causes pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand and arm. It occurs when one of the major nerves to the hand—the median nerve—is squeezed or compressed as it travels through the wrist. The condition typically starts gradually and worsens over time, and is often associated with repetitive hand movements, certain health conditions, or anatomical factors that reduce the space within the carpal tunnel.

How Neurotherapy Helps

Neurotherapy offers effective approaches for carpal tunnel syndrome management, focusing on both symptom relief and addressing underlying factors: - Pain perception modification: Neurofeedback techniques help retrain how the brain processes pain signals from the affected area - Neuromuscular retraining: Improves muscle function and coordination in the hand, wrist, and forearm - Stress reduction: Decreases muscle tension that can contribute to nerve compression - Movement pattern optimization: Enhances awareness of ergonomics and movement habits that may exacerbate the condition - Circulation improvement: Some biofeedback techniques can help enhance blood flow to the affected area Many patients with carpal tunnel syndrome report significant improvements in pain levels, hand function, and quality of life after incorporating neurotherapy into their treatment plan. These approaches work well alongside conventional treatments such as wrist splinting, ergonomic modifications, and when necessary, medical intervention.
