Acupuncture and Carpal Tunnel

Accepted treatments for carpal tunnel include:

  • Splinting
  • physical therapy
  • oral intake or injection of corticosteroids
  • surgery to release the transverse carpal ligament

For an alternative non-drug treatment, healing hands acupuncture can do wonders for carpal tunnel syndrome. Acupuncture’s needle insertion technique helps regulate nutrient and blood circulation of the arm, hand and wrist whilst enhances the body’s healing process. It also promotes the body’s release of endorphins which are neurotransmitters that helps reduce pain response by improving pain threshold.*

Common causes of vertigo are usually problems in the inner ear or the brain and sometimes, it can be caused by migraine, head/neck injury, medications that results to ear problems, and brain conditions.

Acupuncture for vertigo and dizziness treatment has been a subject for various research conducted. In traditional Chinese Medicine perspective, vertigo is caused by problems in the internal organs like the liver, kidney and spleen as well as mucus toxin or phlegm.
