Foe how long has your CTS been an issue?
Hi Danielle, I wrote my response as I suspected your condition may have been worse than mine was. I cannot tell you what my Osteopath did back in the day as I have no clue. That said, if this is an issue round the clock, you may want to consider surgery. As the other posters have written, it is far less invasive nowadays, thanks to keyhole surgery; your advanced condition may warrant it.
@daniella
Have a look at the thread from last year (as mentioned by fatmanfilms). I posted some information/suggestions and some links that you could try before going the surgery route.
Good luck.
My experience with acupuncture (ending last week, after almost 10 sessions and around 1500 francs) is that it didn't work at all . For me. My wife swears on it, and says it helped her get rid of a chronic shoulder inflamation within 3 sessions, I guess YMMV.
Hi everybody,
I've been diagnosed with carpal tunnel in both my wrists.
I've read a lot on the internet and because I have a light form of it (most of the pain is in the early morning), I am convinced I can cure it with specific massages and exercises. I think physiotherapy could really help me.
Problem is I have no idea where to go for the treatment.
Do you know any good therapist in Zürich who helped people getting rid of CR?
Thank you!
If you really have carpel tunnel I would get the operation done, I did both wrists last year very successful & no looking back.
Great to hear your symptoms improved although it only confirms that you never had carpal tunnel syndrome to start with - you had symptoms that mimicked it due to the origin likely in your neck or brachial plexus. This is why EMGs are useful to help identify whether the impingement is down/up stream.
