Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

 Acupuncture for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Providence, RI

Carpal tunnel syndrome is common among secretaries, writers or pretty much anyone else who has to type a lot to make a living. In fact, it’s currently the most common form of peripheral neuropathy diagnosed in patients.

While using your wrists and fingers a lot certainly increases your odds of suffering from it, some patients claim that they did very little with their hands before being diagnosed. Anyone can get it, and a lot can cause it. Even something as simple as doing a lot of needle work.

How Do I Know If I Have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

A lot of patients misdiagnose themselves. They believe that if they experience hand and wrist aches, they must have the disease. While carpal tunnel syndrome does include pain as one of its symptoms, that also comes with muscular dysfunction, tingling, and numbness.

It’s best to have an M.D. diagnose it. Once he has, you certainly aren’t limited to his treatment options. While it’s not wise to take supplements in conjunction with medication, there’s no rule that says you can’t go to an acupuncturist after having your prescription filled.

Acupuncture For Carpal Tunnel Has Been Clinically Tested

Your physician may try to persuade you to stay on, or only use, his path to healing by telling you that his treatments are backed up by studies and proof. While it’s true that steroid injections have proven themselves as an effective treatment in clinical trials and studies, so has acupuncture. Acupuncture is a known and widely accepted treatment for the disorder. Several peer-reviewed articles exist with promising results. All it takes is a simple search online and you can read them all.

Most Trials Recommend Acupuncture In Conjunction With Your Physician’s Care

You should never disown modern medicine entirely. Acupuncture is a serious condition, and it needs to be treated as such. If you are not suffering from a mild case, or a case that’s just developing, it’s likely that you’ll also need steroid and ultrasound treatments from your physician. If these therapies, in conjunction with the acupuncture, do not relieve your symptoms, your physician may recommend surgery.

Acupuncture Can Help Patients Recovering From Carpal Tunnel Surgery As Well

If your physician has suggested surgery, it’s probably because you really need it. Primary physicians do not make money off of referrals. Surgery may sound scary, but the operation performed for carpal tunnel has become less invasive over the years. Patients are only experiencing moderate levels of discomfort after coming up from anesthesia these days.

These little twinges of pain can be easily quelled by a quick session with an acupuncturist. Using an acupuncturist instead of traditional pain killers means there’s no chance of you becoming dependent on medication. Plus, acupuncture’s side effect free.

Any Sort Of Hand Pain Can Be Treated With Acupuncture

Some patients find out that they do not have carpal tunnel after going to the doctor to get it diagnosed. Acupuncture has been proven effective at relieving any sort of bodily pain. The source of which doesn’t have to be from a particular disease or syndrome. If you’ve gone to the doctor with the belief that you have carpal tunnel, but then were told that you do not, it doesn’t mean that the hand-pain was in your head. It just means that it’s from something else. No matter where it’s coming from, acupuncture can help fix it.

Acupuncture Is Effective

Why waste your time with a bunch of hocus pocus when there’s one natural remedy that’s actually been proven effective? Loads of people have walked into an acupuncturist’s office doubtful, they all came out pleasantly surprised. A therapy that’s been around for thousands of years must have something to it. You’ll realize that as soon as you leave the office pain-free.
