Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Relief in Saskatoon
Is that persistent pain in your hand carpal tunnel syndrome? For many people, it is. The painful condition boils down to inflammation in the carpal tunnel, which can limit or even prevent you from being able to do your job.
Painkillers and surgery don’t address the underlying cause of the problem and have unwanted side effects. On the other hand, chiropractic care offers a drug-free, non-invasive approach to help correct the mechanics and alleviate the pain.
What Causes It?
Repetitive stress and repetitive motions are the main causes of carpal tunnel syndrome. Anything from manual labor jobs to desk jobs can contribute—anything where there’s continual, repetitive manual stress with the hands, can lead to the inflammation that causes the pain.
If you’re experiencing chronic or recurrent pain in your hand, forearm, or elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome may be the culprit.
How We Can Help
At Freedom Chiropractic, Dr. Swystun has 25 years’ experience helping patients by addressing the underlying cause of the problem. Our goal is to ensure all the joints in the wrist, hand, elbow, shoulder, and neck are functioning optimally to optimize the function of all the tendons that run through the carpal tunnel.
We begin with a thorough consultation and examination to identify lifestyle factors (such as a job that requires repetitive motions) that may be contributing. Using Activator Methods® protocols, Dr. Swystun will assess all of the complex joints along this kinetic chain and locate areas of dysfunction.
The Activator instrument delivers high-speed, low-force adjustments that are extremely precise, allowing us to restore proper mechanics to only the joints that need it.
