● CONDITION · CARPAL TUNNEL & RSI

Hands-On Treatment for Carpal Tunnel and RSI

Carpal tunnel syndrome and Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) can turn everyday tasks — typing, gripping, even holding a phone — into a source of genuine discomfort, and often develop gradually until they're hard to ignore.

At our clinic, we take a thorough, evidence-based approach to identifying exactly what's driving your wrist, hand, or forearm pain, then build a treatment plan around you — drawing on the most appropriate combination of hands-on therapy, targeted rehabilitation, and advanced treatments available across our clinic, to relieve your symptoms and address the underlying cause.

Does this describe you?

  • You've noticed numbness, tingling, or pins and needles in your thumb, index, or middle finger
  • Your symptoms seem worse at night, or first thing in the morning
  • Typing, using a mouse, or repetitive hand movements at work bring on pain or discomfort
  • You've started dropping things, or noticed your grip strength isn't what it used to be
  • Shaking out your hand or wrist gives some relief, but the symptoms keep coming back
  • Your forearm feels tight, achy, or fatigued by the end of a working day
  • You've tried a wrist splint or resting it, but symptoms haven't fully resolved
  • Pain or tingling seems to worsen with certain wrist positions, like driving or holding a phone

If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone — and it's exactly what we help patients with, every day.

DIAGNOSIS

Types of Carpal Tunnel and RSI We Treat

Each one needs a different treatment approach — which is why the first appointment exists to identify exactly which is yours.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Compression of the median nerve as it passes through the wrist, typically causing numbness, tingling, or pain in the thumb, index and middle fingers, often worse at night.

Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)

A broad term covering pain, aching, or tenderness in the hands, wrists, or forearms caused by repetitive movement or sustained postures, common in desk-based and manual work alike.

De Quervain's Tenosynovitis

Inflammation of the tendons on the thumb side of the wrist, often causing pain with gripping, pinching, or twisting movements.

Tennis and Golfer's Elbow

Pain around the elbow caused by overuse or strain of the tendons attaching to the forearm muscles, often linked to repetitive wrist and grip movements.

Trigger Finger

A condition causing a finger to catch or lock in a bent position, caused by inflammation of the tendon sheath in the hand.

Cubital Tunnel Syndrome

Compression of the ulnar nerve at the elbow, often causing numbness or tingling in the ring and little fingers.

Wrist Tendinopathy

Overuse-related irritation of the tendons in the wrist, often linked to repetitive gripping, typing, or lifting movements.

Postural and Desk-Related Upper Limb Pain

Pain in the hands, wrists, forearms, or shoulders linked to prolonged desk work, poor ergonomics, or repetitive computer use.

— OUR APPROACH —

How we can help.

At our clinic, we take a thorough, evidence-based approach to identifying exactly what's driving your wrist, hand, or forearm pain, then build a treatment plan around you — drawing on the most appropriate combination of hands-on therapy, targeted rehabilitation, and advanced treatments available across our clinic, to relieve your symptoms and address the underlying cause.

Carpal tunnel and RSI symptoms are often dismissed early on as something to simply push through, but left untreated, nerve-related symptoms in particular can gradually worsen. We start with a thorough assessment to properly identify the specific structure involved — since carpal tunnel, cubital tunnel, and general tendon-related RSI can present similarly, but need different treatment.

Depending on your diagnosis, your plan may combine hands-on manual therapy to ease tension in the wrist, forearm and surrounding muscles, dry needling to release tight, contributing muscle tissue, and practical ergonomic and postural advice to address the underlying cause, alongside a structured rehabilitation programme to build resilience and reduce the risk of symptoms returning.

Our aim isn't just to ease your symptoms temporarily, but to understand why they developed in the first place, so you can get back to work, hobbies, and daily tasks without ongoing pain or discomfort holding you back.
