Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and SoftWave Therapy: A Modern Approach to Relief

Published November 4th, 2023 by First Choice Chiropractic

Understanding Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Causes and Symptoms

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a common condition that causes pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand and arm. The condition occurs when one of the major nerves to the hand - the median nerve - is squeezed or compressed as it travels through the wrist. Common causes include repetitive hand motions, wrist anatomy, and health conditions that affect nerves.

Symptoms of CTS include:

Numbness or tingling in the thumb, index, middle, and ring fingers
Pain and discomfort in the hand and wrist, which may extend to the arm
Weakness in the hand and difficulty with fine motor skills

Traditional Medical Route for CTS

Traditionally, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is treated through wrist splinting, medications, and in severe cases, surgery. While these methods can provide relief, they often come with side effects or require a significant recovery period.

Introducing SoftWave Therapy at First Choice Chiropractic

At First Choice Chiropractic, Neurology, & Rehabilitation Center in Lehigh Valley, Dr. Kurt Schichtl is offering an innovative alternative: SoftWave Therapy. This state-of-the-art treatment uses electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves to address CTS without the need for surgery or medication.

How SoftWave Therapy Transforms CTS Treatment

SoftWave Therapy offers several key benefits:

Decreases Pain and Inflammation: Easing the discomfort caused by CTS.
Increases Blood Flow and Circulation: Promoting healing in the wrist and hand through angiogenesis.
Improves Mobility and Range of Motion: Restoring function to the affected hand and wrist.
Stimulates Stem Cell Activation: Encouraging tissue repair and regeneration without the need for injections or surgery.

The Science Behind SoftWave Therapy

SoftWave Therapy's non-invasive approach uses electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. This groundbreaking technology bypasses the need for surgical intervention, offering a non-surgical, non-injection, drug-free alternative.

Why Choose SoftWave Therapy for CTS?

Innovative Treatment: Harnessing the latest advancements in breakthrough technology.
Non-Invasive Approach: Avoiding the risks and downtime associated with surgery.
Drug-Free Solution: Minimizing the reliance on medications and their potential side effects.
Personalized Care: Tailored treatment plans based on individual patient needs.

SoftWave Therapy vs. Traditional Medical Route

While traditional treatments focus on symptom management, SoftWave Therapy aims at the underlying causes of CTS. This difference in approach not only provides symptom relief but also promotes long-term healing and prevention of recurrence.
