Does Carpel Tunnel start in the neck?
Doctors make their best educated guess when it comes to diagnosing a symptom. The British Medical Journal the Lancet found patients that experience symptoms much like Carpal Tunnel Syndrome also experience cervical neuritis (nerve irritation). Cervical Neuritis is a problem in the neck, not in the wrist. Imagine treating this nerve problem that starts at the neck with a wrist brace, wrist exercises or expensive surgery. Only to find the problem continues after treatment. Could a simple specialized and gentle NUCCA adjustment to the area where the nerve irritation starts be the solution?
The adjustment to the upper neck is gentle. The adjustment feels much like your pulse being taken. Though small the outcome of the adjustment for the function of your body is radical. At Advanced Spinal Care, patients that wanted to try a non-surgical option found that a NUCCA adjustment was the answer to the pain and numbness, of the previously diagnosed Carpal Tunnel. Patients have been able to avoid their scheduled surgeries, and long recovery altogether.
