Natural Relief Without Surgery or Medication
Struggling with numbness, tingling, or wrist pain? You may be suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS)—a common but treatable condition caused by pressure on the median nerve in the wrist. At True Life Wellness in Waukee, IA, we offer non-invasive carpal tunnel treatment to help restore function and relieve pain naturally.
📚 What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome occurs when the median nerve—which runs from the forearm into the hand—becomes compressed at the wrist. It is often a result of repetitive movements, poor ergonomics, or underlying inflammation.
⚠️ Common Symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Tingling or numbness in the fingers (especially thumb, index, and middle fingers)
- Hand weakness or dropping objects frequently
- Pain that radiates up the arm
- Difficulty gripping or using small tools
- Symptoms worsening at night
🔍 Diagnosis at True Life Wellness
Our team uses a comprehensive diagnostic process to determine the cause of your wrist pain:
- Thorough health and injury history
- Physical examination and functional movement tests
- Neurological and orthopedic tests
- Postural and spinal assessments (since nerve compression often begins in the neck or shoulders)
- X-rays or digital imaging (if needed)
