Everyone THINKS Chiropractic works with nothing but Bones and Muscles but in reality what we do is remove nerve interference or miscommunication.  To illisustrate this point I want you all to run and grab a rubber band - Seriously go get one !! 

 Now that you have it place it around your finger several times - if done properly you ll see that the blood and nerve flow to the finger is cut off !! So lets FIX it !!  OK I want you to massage the finger to see if that helps - Nope - so lets exercise the finger - down/up - down/up - NOPE  - OK lets stretch the finger - Not a chance - OK crush up some advil or put some pain creme on the finger - this doesn't even work !! 

So lets remove the nerve interference - lets remove whats CAUSING the problem the rubber band - LETS FIX IT !!!  You may be thinking you might have nerve interference that is causing a headache, causing leg or arm pain, causing your child to become colicy, Parkinsons, ADHD, all these are neurological problems that we as Chiropractors help on a daily basis ! I would be honored to help you reach and maintain your health goals as this is my mission " To properly educate and serve the population by helping them reach and maintain their health "

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is the compression of the median nerve at the wrist, which may result in numbness, tingling, weakness, or muscle atrophy in the hand and fingers.  Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is common in people who perform repetitive motions of the hand and wrist, such as typing.  When the wrist is poorly positioned, there isn’t enough space for the median nerve to travel to the hand.  Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is caused by pressure exerted on the median nerve at the point where it passes through the wrist.  The median nerve supplies sensation to the thumb-side of the ring finger.  It also supplies movement to part of the hand. The nerve enters the hand between the wrist bones (called the carpal bones) and the tough membrane that holds the bones together (the transverse carpal ligament).  This space is called the carpal tunnel.  Since the passageway is rigid, any swelling in this area can cause compression of the nerve (this is also called entrapment of the nerve).

Chiropractic looks at the functionality of the joints in the hand and looks to relieve nerve pressure that may be put on the median nerve from a misaligned carpal bone, usually the lunate has fallen  and puts pressure on the median nerve directly.  The Brachial Plexus, bunch of nerves that runs down our arms, may also be to blame and this can be through a spinal misalignment usually in the lower neck to upper back.  Through the Chiropractic adjustment we restore the joint back to its proper motion allowing for proper nerve flow to the hand/arm and naturally heal itself.

If you know someone who suffers with this problem, then you should refer them to Brusveen Chiropractic Clinic for a complete exam and consult.  We have a high success rate with cases like this and the earlier found the better.
