Wrist, Hand and Carpal Tunnel Pain

Carpal Tunnel Treatment

Penarth Osteopathic Practice are here to help with carpal tunnel treatment for your hand and wrist pain

The hand and wrist are prone to injuries, especially when of a repetitive nature.

This is can be due to the position of the hands and wrists whilst using a keyboard or from falls, repetitive strain injury and so on.

‘Carpal tunnel’ syndrome is a specific diagnosis where the median nerve becomes compressed when it passes through a narrow ‘tunnel’ within the writs.

This can be treated osteopathically by helping improve the movement of the elbow and wrist which may help to decrease the compression of the nerve and allow proper function.
