Your hands and wrists are remarkably complex structures, comprising approximately 25% of all the bones in your body. Just like any other part of your musculoskeletal system, proper alignment of these bones is essential for maintaining pain-free movement, optimal function, and overall well-being.
In our practice, we encounter a variety of hand and wrist conditions on a daily basis. Some of the most common issues include:
While these conditions may seem localized to the hands and wrists, it's crucial to understand that the root cause may lie elsewhere in the body.
The nerves that control your hands and wrists originate in the neck and travel through the shoulder and elbow before reaching their destination. As a result, misalignments in any of these areas can lead to hand and wrist problems.
This is why our chiropractors take a holistic approach to treatment, examining not just the affected area but the entire body. By identifying and correcting misalignments in the neck, shoulder, and elbow, we can often resolve hand and wrist issues more effectively than by focusing on the hands and wrists alone.
Once we have identified the source of your hand or wrist problem, we use precise chiropractic adjustments to restore proper alignment. These adjustments can help alleviate pain, improve range of motion, and promote healing in the affected areas.
In addition to adjustments, we may also recommend exercises, stretches, and ergonomic modifications to support your recovery and prevent future issues.
The dexterity and function of our hands and wrists have played a crucial role in human evolution and our ability to thrive as a species. By prioritizing the health of these vital structures, you can ensure that they continue to serve you well throughout your life.
If you're experiencing hand or wrist pain, numbness, or other symptoms, don't wait to seek help. Contact our team today to schedule a consultation and discover how chiropractic care can unlock your hand and wrist health.
