Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: The Importance of Expert Treatment

Are you struggling with hand and wrist pain? Do you experience numbness, tingling, and weakness in your fingers? You may be suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). This condition occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm to the hand, becomes compressed within the carpal tunnel of the wrist. It can make even the simplest tasks unbearable and disrupt your daily life.

At Empower Rehab, we understand the pain and frustration that CTS can cause. We specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of this condition and have helped countless patients find relief. Our team of experts uses a combination of physical examination and nerve conduction studies to accurately diagnose CTS.

But we don't just stop there. Our therapists will design a personalized treatment plan to improve range of motion, strength, and flexibility in the hand and wrist. We also focus on exercises that improve posture and ergonomics to prevent further compression of the median nerve.

Preventing surgery is our number one priority and goal. However, in more severe cases, surgery may be necessary to relieve the pressure on the median nerve. Empower Rehab works closely with experienced surgeons to ensure that our patients receive the most appropriate care for their specific condition. After surgery, our therapists will provide postoperative therapy to help patients regain strength and range of motion.

Preventing CTS is crucial and can be as simple as taking frequent breaks and stretching during repetitive tasks. Our therapists will also provide ergonomic assessments to improve your workstation setup and reduce the risk of developing CTS.

Don't let hand and wrist pain hold you back. At Empower Rehab, we have the expertise and solutions you need to find relief. Schedule an appointment with us today and take the first step towards a pain-free life.
