Dr. Joe DeMarco, chiropractor and owner of OcraMed Health, discusses carpal tunnel syndrome. Symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome often include pain/numbness/tingling in the wrist, hand and digits 1-4 (half of digit 4).
The carpal tunnel is formed by carpal bones on one side and the transverse carpal ligament on the other side. Nine hand/forearm flexor tendons run through the carpal tunnel, as well as the median nerve.
The area is often aggravated while performing desk/computer type work. While our hands/wrist on at the key board/mouse, pressure is placed on the carpal tunnel and it's contents. This creates decreased blood flow to the soft tissue and can also create irritation to the soft tissue.
Dr. Joe demonstrates a 5 minute routine of stretches/exercises and fascial release work to bring blood flow into the tissue. This should be performed prior to sitting at your desk. It can then be performed through out your work day to maintain proper blood flow and prevent tissue irritation.

I work in a restaurant and this really helped me, thanks alot!
My pleasure! Glad I could help!
really enjoying your videos, and i ordered from you today. keep up the great work. I now need a good video on pririformis syndrome / trigger points upper glutes, i've been laid up almost a week!
Thanks for tuning in! Hope you heal quickly my friend!
This was so helpful!
Happy to help my friend!
Fast forward a week and i can flex my left bicep entirely now like my right . The inflamation is going drastically. Your the man doc
Edit
not to mention i can actually extend my wrists again i didnt realize how bad it was until i couldnt do a pushup because of my wrists not being able to extend back
Good to hear my friend!
Good exercises Joe!!!👍🏻
Glad you like them!
@@OcraMedHealth should i buy the regular size tai chi balls or mini?
@@ianli3516 It depends on the size of your arm. The mini is slightly smaller and softer. Usually either is good for the forearm muscles.
This hand motion reminds me of a part of the Swimming Dragon, a Qi Qong motion. Check it out if you have the time!
Hell yea ima do this rn
So from doing boxing I injured my knuckle and forearm on two different occasions. First occasion I did a dodgy punch and injured my forearm muscle, it started cramping up and now feels permanently stiff and feels like the muscle locks up. Second occasion, I injured my knuckle boxing and couldn't make a first for weeks and had to do physio (to help the pain and help me close my fist). Now I've gone back to training and my forearm muscle feels all knotted up and stiff, and I feel like it's making my hand cramp up so I can't close my fist? The forearm itself and the hand has been cramping both at the same time, not sure what you would recommend ?
May not be carpal tunnel. Hard to say without a physical exam. You really should have it looked at by a professional in your area. Good luck Sarah! Heal quick!
@@OcraMedHealth Hey I just wanted to say, I took a look at your forearm video and did exactly what you said there (alongside the carpal tunnel exercises). So far my forearm seems so much better :D and I am very much relieved. Thank you very much :D
Don't get it .. repetitive use causes copper tunnel...lol..soo here are some repetitive exercise... I was a mover for 15 yrs roofer for 6. ...more use of the hands doesn't work.....it's like when they think you have a heart problem they say get on this treadmill and run till I have a heart attack...
Have the techniques from the video helping at all? Give them a few weeks. Good luck!
