Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

A number of factors can contribute to carpal tunnel syndrome, including the anatomy of your wrist, certain underlying health problems, and patterns of hand use.

Carpal tunnel syndrome (also known as median nerve compression) is a condition in which the median nerve, which controls the functions of the fingers and hand, becomes compressed inside a 'tunnel' in the wrist. This can cause various symptoms including pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the fingers, hand, or wrist.

The Village Chiropractic Center has successfully treated hundreds of patients naturally. Avoid surgery and drugs. Call today to see if Dr. Berry can help you with your CTS.

How Can Dr. Berry Help with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

The carpal tunnel is a small passage inside the wrist. The bottom and sides of the tunnel are formed by small bones. A ligament called the transverse carpal ligament arches over these bones, forming the roof of the tunnel. Passing through this tunnel are arteries, veins, tendons, and nerves. This includes the tendons that allow the fingers to bend, and the median nerve, which conducts impulses sent by the brain down the arms into the hands and fingers.

Pressure on the median nerve leads to the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. Some factors that could lead to increased pressure include over use syndromes, osteoarthritis, wrist fractures, rheumatoid arthritis, obesity, and fluid retention.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a repetitive motion injury that responds well to conservative care. Dr. Berry can treat your carpal tunnel syndrome with chiropractic adjustments which have been shown to be effective for carpal tunnel syndrome.

Because it is caused by repetitive stress such as poor ergonomics in the workplace or home, it is vital to address these issues to prevent recurrence. Specific stretches and exercises, recommendations for ergonomic changes, and nutritional supplements that affect nerve pain and blood flow are also important to aid healing.

Dr. Berry,

I would like to thank you for showing concern for a new client. I came to your office last Thursday and your putting concern for me instead of your business SAVED MY LIFE. You arranged for me to get an EKG prior to the chiropractic visit, and that set a series of events in motion that led to having a 100% blockage in my artery removed that same day. If I had delayed (or not followed through with your instructions) I might not be here today. I want to thank you for having that concern and wait until I get back into your office and thank you personally. Again, thanks.

Just before Christmas I stopped in your office, late in the day unannounced, and you were getting ready to leave. You delayed your departure to take care of the pain in my neck. Later, after you left, I learned that you were anxious to leave because your wife was not well.

Sir, that is patient care "above and beyond"! Many thanks for your special attention in light of the circumstances.

Blessings, E.B.

After years of pain, Dr. Berry and his staff gave me a new lease on life. When I leave their office after a treatment I have so much energy and are virtually pain free.

Thanks for changing my pain to painfree.

About two years ago I took a fifteen hour road trip, after which I experienced extreme pain in my back and right leg. After recieving treatment from various massage therapists and chiropractors for two years I experienced no real pain relief.

I was sharing my experiences with several of my friends one evening and one of my friends spoke of Dr. Berry who was successful in treating her husbands leg discomfort.

Dr. Berry introduced me to the ProAdjuster. I was given detailed information on how it works and why I was having pain. The information he has given me has become a path to my recovery.

Dr. Berry and his staff are kind, caring health professionals. They make it easy and comfortable to share the details of my pain. In a few short weeks my pain has subsided.
