Doctor Approved Wrist and Elbow Exercises:
Be sure to follow these chiropractor approved arm exercises and stretches Dr. Steve recommends to keep your Wrist & Elbow strong and prevent pain. If you are suffering from carpal tunnel and need treatment check out our carpal tunnel treatment protocol.
If you are experiencing wrist or thumb pain, conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome or de Quervain’s syndrome may be contributing factors. Pain around the elbow may be related to either tennis elbow or golfer’s elbow, depending on which tendons are affected.
Each of these conditions are different however treatment will include similar techniques. Interferential Current Therapy (IFC) is used to reduce painful symptoms and promote healing of the damaged tissues. IFC is often accompanied with heat to help relax the surrounding muscles. Shockwave therapy is used to break down any scar tissue and further promote the healing process. Techniques such as active release therapy (ART) or instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) may be used to compliment the previous techniques further enhancing their effects. Icing the injury following treatment will help to reduce excessive inflammation and settle any soreness.
Our chiropractic and physiotherapy teams will begin appointments with a thorough injury assessment and patient history to ensure treatment is tailored to specific injuries and patient goals.
