Tingling, Numbness, Weak Grip? You Might Have Carpal Tunnel.
Carpal tunnel syndrome happens when the median nerve—which runs through your wrist—gets compressed. The result? Pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand and fingers, especially near the thumb. You might notice:
- A pins-and-needles feeling in your fingers
- Trouble gripping or picking up small items
- Weakness that makes everyday tasks harder
- Pain that flares up at night or with repetitive use
If left untreated, this can lead to permanent nerve damage. Don’t let it get that far.
What Causes Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
The most common causes include:
- Repetitive hand or wrist movements (typing, tools, assembly line work)
- Poor wrist posture
- Fluid retention or swelling
- Previous wrist injuries
- Underlying conditions like arthritis or diabetes
Non-Surgical Relief for Carpal Tunnel
At Faulkenberry Chiropractic, we treat carpal tunnel syndrome using non-invasive, drug-free methods that get to the root of the problem—without cutting you open or putting you on pills.
Here’s how we help:
🔹 Chiropractic Adjustments
Gentle adjustments to the wrist, elbow, and cervical spine relieve pressure on the median nerve and improve joint alignment.
🔹 Soft Tissue Work
We use targeted manual therapy to release tension in the muscles and fascia around the wrist and forearm, helping to reduce compression.
🔹 Stretching & Mobility Exercises
Personalized stretches help improve flexibility, strengthen weak areas, and reduce future flare-ups.
🔹 Cold Laser or Temperature Therapy
These therapies reduce inflammation around the nerve to promote healing and reduce pain.
Get Your Grip Back — Without Surgery
