Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Do you have pain in your arm, wrist or hand? Do you have numbness or tingling in your arm or hands? Do you have neck pain or tightness? These are all common complaints of people who suffer from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Problems in the neck and wrist can cause pain, tingling, weakness, numbness, or a loss of strength in the arms and hands.

The major nerves controlling the arms, hands, and fingers are the Radial, Ulnar, and Median nerves. These nerves travel from your spinal cord, out of your neck, down the arm, through the bones of the wrist (carpal bones), and into the fingers.

The spinal nerves exit the spinal cord through openings between several bones in the lower neck. These spinal bones can lose their normal motion and position creating nerve pressure or stress that causes the symptoms in the neck, arms, and hands.

Dr. Schone’s approach to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is to locate its underlying cause — the neck or wrist. This is accomplished with a comprehensive consultation, a full and complete chiropractic, orthopedic, physical, and neurological examination, and any necessary X-rays. 

The result of your tests will answer the three most often asked questions from patients: Can chiropractic help? How long will it take? How much will it cost?

If yours is a chiropractic case, a program of care will be tailored to your condition.  Special attention is given to the structure and function of the spine and its affect on your nervous system.

Millions of patients have discovered and enjoyed the positive results from chiropractic. We want this for all our patients…and we want it for you. 

During your consultation with Dr. Schone, you’ll learn how chiropractic care combined with proper diet, exercise, proper work-habits, and other factors of good health can enhance you well-being and help you enjoy life to the fullest.
