Welcome to Cornerstone Chiropractic in Montgomery, New York Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Relief Through Natural Chiropractic Care
Are you experiencing tingling, numbness, or weakness in your fingers or hand? You may be suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), a condition often caused by repetitive motions such as typing, texting, or assembly line work. At Cornerstone Chiropractic, we understand the impact CTS can have on your daily life and offer a natural approach to relieve your symptoms.
Understanding Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome occurs due to compression of the median nerve, leading to symptoms like tingling, numbness, or weakness in the hand. While many attribute these symptoms solely to wrist issues, it’s essential to recognize that functional changes in the neck, shoulder, elbow, or wrist can contribute to CTS.
Our Natural Approach
At Cornerstone Chiropractic, we take a holistic approach to treat Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Our gentle chiropractic care focuses on addressing not only the problematic wrist and elbow but also adjusting the upper spine to alleviate underlying issues. Additionally, we may recommend rest, cold therapy to reduce inflammation, specific exercises, or wearing a splint or brace for immobilization.
