Manage Carpal Tunnel with Chiropractic Care

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can often cause a type of chronic pain that traditional medicine struggles to deal with. This kind of joint pain is often treated simply by prescribing pain killers. The problem with that approach is that the pain killers have serious side effects and wear off quickly. At Shenandoah Chiropractic, we have provided residents of Harrisonburg with natural and effective carpal tunnel treatment for many years.

Benefits of Chiropractic Care 

Carpal tunnel is a condition that affects the nerves. While the exact causes are not known, it is commonly believed that the nerves in a hand that is suffering from carpal tunnel have become overworked. Essentially, they are sending constant pain signals to the brain because the muscles surrounding the nerves are under strain. This is putting pressure on the nerves, forcing the brain to read this pressure as pain.

To fix the problem, a chiropractor can relieve some of the pressure on the nerves. This is done by manipulating muscles along the spine, shoulder, arm, and hands. As these muscles are moved, the pressure on the nerves is alleviated, making it possible to feel less pain in a relatively short amount of time and with no side effects. Over multiple sessions, not only will the pain decrease, but the muscles and nerves will start to heal. That means that after just a few sessions, it is possible for a person to no longer feels the effects of carpal tunnel syndrome.
