The Non-Surgical, No-Drug Alternative for Treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
About Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) occurs when the median nerve that goes from the forearm into the hand is entrapped at the tunnel it passes through in the wrist. Inflammation or swelling of the tendons and tissues that surround the median nerve can compress it within the carpal tunnel's constricted space. This is a decidedly "un-fun" experience that can cause pain, numbness, tingling, burning, and loss of hand strength, among other problems. Repeating the same wrist-intensive motions, such as typing on a computer or any similar repetitive activity, triggers this inflammation.

or...Movement-Enhancing Massage Therapy
The safe, effective, alternative treatment for CTS Movement-Enhancing Massage Therapy (MEM Therapy) is based on a simple, proven concept: that in cases of repetitive motion injury, the muscles in the forearm have TIGHTENED UP from overuse, and have begun to pinch off the median nerve. Therefore, the solution is clear: Movement-Enhancing Massage Therapy.
How does Movement-Enhancing Massage Therapy work?
If muscles lose their ability to relax, their "muscle memory" is lost. Movement-Enhancing Massage Therapy is a form of deep massage that returns the muscles to their full resting length naturally. By relaxing the muscles in the forearm, the pressure on the median nerve is reduced and circulation is increased. Greater circulation leads to reduced inflammation and natural healing in the carpal tunnel region can take place.
Through MEM Therapy, a trained massage therapist can provide relief for the pain and discomfort of CTS. Better yet, after successful treatment, the patient can be taught to manage and maintain his or her own treatment through regular non-stress stretching.
