This is the listing of exercise video image #2 of 2 for the prevention and rehabilitation of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Carpal Tunnel has reached pandemic proportions with little relief being offered via invasive treatment methods like surgery, which provides a failure rate of about 80%+ within 3-years post-surgery. Whether you utilize the Flextend / Restore system or not, it is imperative to implement conservative treatment methods consisting of stretches and exercises.  Of course you have to be careful, as performing the wrong exercises, such as flexion / gripping exercises, often increase the already debilitating symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome by further impinging the median nerve. 

Although Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can be caused by a variety of conditions such as increased edema during pregnancy, diabetes, obesity, arthritis and other ailments, it is most often caused by a muscle imbalance between the muscles that open and close the hand. Here yo uwill learn a couple of simple active stretch exercises that will correct the imbalance and increase the space within the carpal tunnel, relieving the impingement of the median nerve.

Everyone is too busy to read articles anymore - the reason for my creating of this top-5 list, as I wouldn’t want people to have to apply too much effort for their own health and safety by performing some form of research on their own. 

People want quick and easy no matter what it is: Driving and eating vs. sitting at home with the family and eating, a car wash vs. using the hose in the driveway, email and text messaging instead if writing an actual letter, pills vs. a change in diet and exercise and the list goes on.  The want for ease of use can be applied to anything, including a variety of repetitive strain injuries; one of them known by everyone as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, or CTS for short.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is everywhere so how does someone get rid of it as quickly and easily as getting a hamburger at the drive-up window? 

Here they are, the Top 5 Ways to Reduce CTS: (I just got through saying that everyone is too busy to read much and I went and wrote a long article, somewhat defeating the purpose of the Top-5.) 

So here is my condensed version, the A-E List, with the in-depth explanations of each below:

A – Flextend
B – Stretch flexor Muscles
C – Strengthen Back and Shoulders to create better posture.
D – Utilize good ergonomics, making sure your job fits your build.
E – Massage Therapy and Rest.

Carpal tunnel surgery and cortisone injections are very common, but for most, they offer little to no relief, the reason that effective conservative therapy is so important to long-term success.   No matter what you choose, we wish you the best - but know that both immediate and long-term relief can be obtained with FLEXTEND® / RESTORE™.
