carpal tunnel

Are your hands going numb when you are cutting hair, working in the yard, or working at your desk? When carpal tunnel STARTS to become a problem, that’s when you need to start taking care of the issue. Waiting on the issue to get worse creates a greater problem and will take much longer to correct.

Looking for other alternatives to surgery? Here at Cornerstone Rehab and Spine, we can help decrease the pain and chances of needing surgery.

Carpal tunnel is just that, a tunnel that surrounds a nerve that allows your hand to work properly. When the nerve is compressed due to increased swelling within that tunnel, you get the classical nerve pain in your hands. Decreasing the tightness, muscle swelling, and thus nerve swelling in the area is the key to decreasing the nerve pain. When muscles in our forearms are over worked or you do repetitive motions daily, those muscles develop scar tissue and never really heal. Ultrasound and targeted therapy can be an excellent combination that successfully prevents the issue from necessitating future surgery.

This type of issue can often be fixed in just a couple visits. Dr. Gomach has helped patients who often have been "dealing" with the issue rather than treating it. Treatment will be tailored to your needs as you get the chance to spend time with the Doctor one on one every visit.

Cornerstone Rehab and Spine can ease your discomfort and help you return to your normal life again, keeping you on the field, track, road, or even the course .
