Wrist pain can be more than just a nuisance. For many individuals, it becomes a chronic issue that interferes with daily activities like typing, lifting, or even gripping a coffee mug. While surgery may be necessary in some cases, many people find effective relief through non surgical treatments. At M Powered Chiropractic, we believe in taking a holistic and conservative approach first.

Understanding the Source of Chronic Wrist Pain

Common conditions include carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, arthritis, and repetitive strain injuries. These issues often develop from overuse, improper ergonomics, or misalignments in the wrist, forearm, or even further up the kinetic chain in the shoulders and neck.

Chiropractic Adjustments and Alignments

When you think of chiropractic care, you may picture spinal adjustments. However, chiropractors are also trained to evaluate and adjust the joints in the extremities, including the wrist. Misalignments in the small bones of the wrist can limit mobility and increase stress on soft tissues. Gentle chiropractic adjustments can help restore proper alignment and function, improving circulation and reducing inflammation.

Soft Tissue Therapy

Chronic wrist pain often involves more than just the bones and joints. The muscles, tendons, and ligaments that surround the wrist can become tight or inflamed. Techniques such as Active Release Therapy and myofascial release are used to break up adhesions in the soft tissues and relieve tension. These therapies improve flexibility and help restore normal movement patterns.

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy, commonly known as pulsed EMF, is a non invasive treatment that uses low frequency electromagnetic waves to stimulate cellular repair and enhance the body’s natural healing processes. This therapy works by delivering targeted pulses of energy to affected areas, helping to reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and relieve pain. For individuals with chronic wrist pain, pulsed EMF can support tissue regeneration and decrease discomfort without the need for medication or surgery.

Wrist Supports and Ergonomic Advice

In some cases, the way we use our wrists throughout the day contributes to chronic pain. A chiropractor can provide guidance on proper ergonomics for typing, lifting, or using tools. Temporary use of wrist supports or braces can also help by reducing strain and allowing inflamed tissues time to heal.

Whole Body Approach to Healing

At M Powered Chiropractic, we understand that pain in the wrist may stem from issues in other parts of the body. Misalignments in the spine or shoulders can affect the nerves and muscles that control wrist function. By taking a whole body approach to care, we aim to not just treat the symptoms but address the root cause of your pain.

Take the First Step Toward Wrist Pain Relief

Chronic wrist pain does not always require surgery. With the right combination of chiropractic care, soft tissue therapies, ergonomic changes, and supportive exercises, many people find lasting relief without invasive procedures.
