Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal tunnel syndrome may have many causes

Heredity, diabetes, improper use, hormonal changes (eg during pregnancy) may all contribute to the development of Carpal Tunnel syndrome (a narrowing of the carpal tunnel in the wrist, often causing nerve pain). However, no matter the cause, we believe that you can avoid surgery in all but the most serious cases.

Activity changes and retraining

It will be important to retrain the way you use your arm and hand and learn how to perform all actions with less strain and tension. We will be able to instruct you in exercises and body awareness so that you learn these important skills.

Tension-filled tissues are more prone to injury

Tui Na treatment and acupuncture may accompany your body awareness training as these therapies excel at releasing tension in soft tissue and promoting healing

Testimonials

Maria, Dalston

“I had suffered from back pain (sciatica) for 8 years on and off. During a particularly painful episode I decided to try acupuncture and i really can’t recommend it enough – I had six treatments with Ross over six months ago and I haven’t experienced any back pain since.”

Cinnamen, Shoreditch

“For years I have suffered neck pain, back pain, migraines and felt constantly tired and drained, but after a few sessions of acupuncture with Ross the migraines have finally stopped, and my day to day working life has become so much easier. I highly recommend Ross as a skilled practitioner. He has been a wonderful support also for the emotional stress that is a result of my years of pain.”

Could I please request a bottle of you magical tincture for the bladder. My condition is a 1000x time better but it is just for those occasions when I feel I need a little extra help alleviating any niggling discomfort.

Fixed from physical pain, fixed emotionally, more energy, perspective and the will to get back up and live another day. This may all sound very big but it's what happens... there are other days when I just need a "top up" and that works fantastically too! So what ever you are going through from a bit of tiredness to a life crisis I
