Myofascial Release Massage for Carpal Tunnel
Doctors and therapists use myofascial release massage for carpal tunnel syndrome every day. In fact, it's the most commonly used manual therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome.
If you have carpal tunnel symptoms, then explore this powerful
remedy immediately - before your condition worsens.
- FIND OUT: do you have carpal tunnel? No strings attached self-test.
Why it works
Myofascial release of the forearm and wrist tissues is an effective tool to eliminate carpal tunnel symptoms. The reason that it's so good for carpal tunnel pain and numbness is because it attacks the source of the condition.
That is, myofascial release breaks-up tissue adhesions or restrictions in and on your flexor tendons. The adhesions are like a fibrous "glue" around your tendons.
These adhesions cause inflammation and swelling inside and around the tendons. This swelling is the underlying reason you have carpal tunnel symptoms.
In terms of effectiveness, myofascial release massage is at least as effective as carpal tunnel surgery. In most instances, it's even more effective and more long-lasting.
Myofascial release is so effective against carpal tunnel syndrome that the American Osteopathic Association (AOA) recommends it as effective medicine for carpal tunnel syndrome. Pain management doctors and therapists call it “the medicine of the 21st century.”
How it's done by a therapist
Myofascial release massage is a therapy that's applied to the skin over any affected area. But when performing it to relieve carpal tunnel, the technique is focused on the wrist and forearm area.
The practitioner works the skin using opposing thumb movements. This creates a "kneading" effect which transmits to the tissues below. It loosens the sticky adhesions. For treating carpal tunnel, the kneading loosens restrictions in and around the flexor tendons.
When tendinous adhesions loosen, so does pressure from pain-sensitive tissues like nerves and blood vessels. Releasing pressure and restrictions at the wrist joint restores natural tissue alignment - and carpal tunnel symptoms disappear.
It’s not just for carpal tunnel
Carpal tunnel syndrome is not the only effective application of myofascial release massage. This list shows other conditions where myofascial release is also a great treatment:
- Fibromyalgia
- Tendonitis
- Back pain
- Osteoarthritis
- Plantar fasciitis
- Scars (hypertrophic, hypersensitive, painful scars, burn scars, mastectomy scars)
- Tennis elbow
- Chronic pain
How it's done automatically
Myofascial release massage for carpal tunnel can be performed automatically using the CarpalRx device. The CarpalRx device is:
- Patented
- FDA cleared
- Validated by clinical studies
Best of all, the CarpalRx does not require visiting a trained therapist or doctor every day to get the same therapy.
The proprietary mechanism inside each CarpalRx kneads your skin which breaks up adhesions below. Use it morning and evenings for 30 days, and symptoms have a 97% probability of disappearing forever.
Simply relax at home and get the same therapy given by professionals. And in just 30 days, pain, numbness, tingling, burning, shooting electric shocks, and weakness will be gone.
In fact, it's guaranteed to work or your money back!
Conclusion
Myofascial release massage for carpal tunnel syndrome is a safe, simple and highly effective treatment. That's because it attacks the source of the problem: restrictions around your flexor tendons.
When restrictions are relieved, the swelling which causes carpal tunnel is reduced. That means pain, numbness, tingling and other unpleasant symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome fade away. It's effective and permanent.
No surgery is ever required.
The protocol requires two 15 minute sessions (morning and evening) for approximately 4 weeks. This regimen will provide symptoms relief in even the most severe cases of carpal tunnel syndrome.
