Have you ever had a 'carpal tunnel' cured thru acupuncture? How successful was it?


Have you ever had a 'carpal tunnel' cured thru acupuncture? How successful was it?

Acupuncture has been shown to reduce local inflammation on thermal imaging. A number of single-blind and double-blind studies show it can reduce pain.

Many of my carpal tunnel clients have been able to put-off surgery and experience a reduction in pain, but by no means has it been 100% successful for all.

If you decide to try acupuncture, I would recommend committing to at least 6-8 treatments before assessing your response.

Carpal tunnel can't be cured by acupuncture. At most you get a placebo effect - you think it's working, when it isn't.

Go visit a real doctor.

my mum had carpal tunnel for years in her hands because she did hairdressing, se finally got an operation done and it hasnt bothered her since, talk to a doctior about it
