About This Service
The Nerve Has a Long Commute
Carpal tunnel symptoms come from the median nerve, which runs from the neck, down the arm and through the wrist into the hand. It can get irritated at the wrist, but also at the neck, shoulder or elbow, and sometimes in more than one place at once.
That's why we examine the neck, arm, elbow and wrist, not just the spot that tingles. Then we'll tell you whether chiropractic care fits, or whether you need a medical doctor.
- Neurological testing of strength and sensation in the hand
- An exam of the neck, shoulder, elbow and wrist
- Adjustments for the neck and upper extremity where needed
- Workstation and hand-use changes for daily life
- Referral when numbness is constant or strength is dropping

Our Approach
What Care Looks Like
Care is aimed at wherever the nerve is being irritated, which can mean the neck, the wrist or both. It usually pairs adjustments with workstation changes and a few simple exercises.
Numbness that is constant, weakness that keeps getting worse, or wasting of the muscle at the base of the thumb should be checked by a medical doctor promptly.

Common Questions
Questions Patients Ask Us
Can a chiropractor help carpal tunnel?
Chiropractic care may help when the nerve is being irritated at the neck, arm or wrist. An exam with neurological testing tells us whether it's a good fit.
Could my hand numbness be coming from my neck?
Yes. The nerves to the hand start in the neck, so neck problems can cause hand symptoms.
When should I see a medical doctor?
If numbness is constant, strength is getting worse, or the muscle at the base of the thumb looks smaller.
Do you see pregnancy-related hand symptoms?
Yes, with gentle, pregnancy-appropriate care.

Verified Patient“Having recently moved to Loveland, I was seeking a chiropractor closer to my home. I had a few unpleasant experiences with other Loveland chiropractic companies that are what I call ‘commercial chiropractic.’ Dr. Flemming’s passion for his practice was obvious to me from the first meeting. With every adjustment, I feel my body improve.”
