Treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome with Acupuncture



Are you struggling with pain from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome? Did you know that acupuncture can provide relief?


Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a common condition that affects the hand and wrist, causing numbness, tingling, and weakness. It occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the hand, becomes compressed or squeezed at the wrist usually caused by repetitive hand movements, such as typing on a computer or using tools for extended periods. Symptoms usually start gradually, with frequent burning, tingling, or numbness in the palm of the hand and the fingers, especially the thumb, index and middle fingers. As symptoms worsen, people might feel pain, weakness, or numbness in the hand and wrist, radiating up the arm during the day. Decreased grip strength may make it difficult to form a fist, grasp small objects, or perform other manual tasks.


Acupuncture can help with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome by targeting specific points in the hand, wrist, and arm to relieve pain and inflammation. It can also improve nerve conduction and promote healing of damaged tissues.


Who is Dr. Lisa?


Dr. Lisa McCoog is a licensed acupuncturist with over a decade of experience, whose approach to treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is holistic; meaning she takes into account the whole body and not just the affected area.

"I suffered from carpal tunnel syndrome for years before I met Dr. Lisa. My job involves extensive computer use and this condition was making my daily tasks unbearable. I had tried various treatments before, but nothing seemed to work. A friend recommended acupuncture and, although skeptical, I decided to give it a try. Dr. Lisa was extremely professional and patient, explaining the process in a way that eased my fears. After a few sessions, I started to notice a difference. The numbness and pain in my wrists subsided significantly. I'm now able to get through my workday without discomfort. Treatments with Dr. Lisa brought a remarkable improvement in my condition. I'd highly recommend her to anyone dealing with carpal tunnel syndrome."
