Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
The Carpal Tunnel is a crowded tissue structure in the wrist that contains the median nerve which is responsible for sensation and mobility in the thumb and first three fingers. Tendons for the first three fingers also run through the narrow tunnel.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is caused by pinching or compression of the tunnel. The condition is more common in women and often occurs during pregnancy.
- Tingling in the thumb or first three fingers
- Shock-like feeling or numbness
- Numbness can travel up your arm
- Weakness in hand
- Lose grip or drop objects
- Wrist fracture or arthritis that modifies the bones of the wrist
- Any damage to the nerves caused by diabetes or inflammation
- Obesity, thyroid disease, kidney disease and menopause
The long term success of Dr. Greenberg’s patients is attributed to a specialized approach to the examination process. Deemed “The Greenberg Method,” this diagnostic approach not only looks into the area of damage and pain, but also evaluates the mechanics and structure of the bone and joints related to the area of the pain. For instance, the symptoms of carpal tunnel may be mimicked by damage to the ligament and tendon structures of the elbow, shoulder and scapula. Abnormality in these regions can also put pressure across the joints of the neck where the nerves that run down the arm originate. In executing The Greenberg Method, Dr. Greenberg often discovers that conditions experienced in one area of the body are often rooted in a different area that hasn’t been treated before. While an isolated joint treatment ignores physiology and the evaluation of movement, The Greenberg Method’s full-body examination produces a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plan. In return, the patient experiences a greater reduction in pain and improvement in function, which helps them get back on their feet to resume their daily routines, pain free.
Dr. Greenberg created the The Greenberg Method treatment to empower the body to heal itself. He and his team use Prolotherapy, Platelet-Rich Plasma and Stem Cell treatments, to activate the body’s natural healing components, including stem cells.
Dr. Greenberg uses TGM Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections for carpal tunnel syndrome. PRP treatments help promote the patients’ own healing factors and cells so that they can regenerate tissue, cartilage and bone systems in the wrist. Dr. Greenberg will discuss the objectives of each treatment and explain the therapeutic option that is most appropriate for your case.
The Greeneberg Method is a good choice for people who are looking for a non-invasive alternative to surgery. TGM treatments have lower infection risks than surgeries, shorter recovery times and are opioid-free. Dr. Greenberg is a holistically-centered physician who not only treats your physical injury but he also addresses You. We support your recovery through proper nutrition, supplements, and innovative therapies to nurture a sense of wellness for your body and mind.
