Non-Surgical Treatment Options
If you're experiencing numbness, tingling, or weakness in your hand or wrist, you may be dealing with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). At Eastside Ideal Health in Redmond, we provide non-invasive, chiropractic-centered care to relieve symptoms and restore function—without relying on medication or surgery.
What Is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve is compressed as it passes through the wrist. This narrow passageway, called the carpal tunnel, can become irritated by repetitive movements, poor ergonomics, inflammation, or structural misalignments.
Common Symptoms of CTS
- Numbness or tingling in the thumb, index, or middle fingers
- Wrist or hand pain, especially at night
- Weak grip strength or hand fatigue
- Symptoms that worsen with typing, driving, or repetitive hand use
How We Evaluate Carpal Tunnel at Eastside Ideal Health
We begin with a detailed consultation and physical exam that may include:
- Phalen’s Test: Wrist flexion test to reproduce symptoms
- Tinel’s Sign: Light tapping over the nerve to detect irritation
- Neurological and orthopedic testing for nerve involvement
- Postural and spinal assessment to identify contributing factors
Chiropractic Treatment for Carpal Tunnel
Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, we address the underlying biomechanical issues contributing to nerve compression. Your treatment plan may include:
- Wrist and hand adjustments to improve joint alignment and nerve space
- Spinal adjustments (especially cervical and upper thoracic) to improve nerve flow
- Soft tissue therapy for forearm and wrist muscles
- Neurodynamic exercises (nerve glides) to improve mobility of the median nerve
- Ergonomic coaching to reduce stress on the wrist during daily activities
- Splinting or bracing recommendations for nighttime relief
Backed by Research
“Conservative management of CTS, including manual therapy and nerve mobilization, has shown significant improvement in symptoms and function.”
When to Consider Referral or Surgery
Most mild-to-moderate cases respond well to conservative treatment. However, you may need referral for further testing or surgical evaluation if you experience:
- Progressive muscle wasting in the hand
- Persistent symptoms after 6–8 weeks of care
- Severe or worsening nerve conduction results
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can a chiropractor help carpal tunnel without surgery?
- Yes. Many cases respond to conservative chiropractic care, including adjustments, nerve glides, and soft tissue work.
- How long does treatment take?
- While results vary, most patients report symptom relief within 4–6 weeks of consistent care.
- Is it okay to keep working on a computer?
- Yes, but we’ll guide you in adjusting your ergonomics and posture to reduce aggravation of symptoms.

Testimonials
"Ben and Maggie are the greatest! As an endurance athlete, I have various aches and pains. I give them a call and they figure a way to get me in. ART hurts like heck, but they get the job done so I can continue with my training. I highly recommend Eastside Ideal Health!"
"I'm a Crossfitter and it's hard to find a sports Chiropractor that understands my workout routine. Every time I go in for an adjustment I leave feeling so much better. Also they take time to teach me how to foam-roll my tight muscles properly and how to stretch properly. My husband and I love it!"
