chiropractic care for sciatica and back pain

It is likely that you've heard carpal tunnel in Bremerton WA used as a catch-all term for any nerve pain in the arm or hand. In reality, carpal tunnel syndrome is the compression of the median nerve. This syndrome can cause pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the palm as well as the thumb, index, and middle fingers. These symptoms can be scary and make it difficult to perform daily tasks such as typing, cooking, cleaning, or any movement of the wrist.


Bremerton Wellness Can Help in Bremerton WA

Often people turn to surgery to resolve carpal tunnel syndrome. However, there are many natural, noninvasive methods that not only provide relief but address the root cause. During a thorough assessment, our providers can determine the cause of your symptoms and provide solutions. It is important to find out why your median nerve is being compressed and find treatment that takes the pressure off of the nerve.

Natural Carpal Tunnel Treatment

  • Myofascial release
  • Cupping
  • Median nerve flossing
  • Adjustments
  • B12

Myofascial release and cupping - both of these types of manual therapies work to relieve muscle tension and increase blood flow. The median nerve may be getting compressed by tight muscles in the forearm, so decreasing muscle tension may be important.

Median nerve flossing - At Bremerton Wellness, your provider may recommend nerve flossing. This is a technique that improves mobility of the nerve traveling through structures.

Adjustments - Your median nerve may also be getting compressed in bony structures. Adjustments improve joint mobility and may help take the pressure off of surrounding nerves.

B12 - B12 has been found to improve nerve function, so it may improve nerve pain if you are experiencing a deficiency of B12.

It is important to note that other conditions can be mistaken as carpal tunnel, such as ulnar nerve entrapments, radial tunnel syndrome, or cervical radiculopathy. To determine the cause of your discomfort, providers at Bremerton Wellness will conduct a thorough examination to determine the root cause and plan the best course of treatment.
