: : : Does anyone have any experience in chiropractic treatment for CTS and/or ulnar nerve comression?
: : I go to a chiropractor regularly and he said he can help it but I honestly couldn't see any difference from his attempts. He does keep away my migraines and that is why I go. I did go ahead with surgery but to be honest I already was on that path before he told me he could help my CTS. Maybe if he caught it sooner.

: I'm in the same situation as Karen. My visits to the chiropractor really help me to keep my migraines and neck problems under control. He said that he could help my CTS too but like Karen, I was already on the operation path, so he didn't get a chance to prove himself. I certainly wouldn't rule this sort of treatment out.

I wouldn't rule out any chiropractors abilities. I was in an auto accident years ago and after going to medical doctors, staying full of pain pills because of the constant pain, and laying dormant for about 2 months, my sister finally convinced me to go to her chiro. He had me walking again in 3 treatments, painfree. Although my company wouldn't go for me seeing a chiro for my CT. They lean more towards medical doctors. A good Chiro is worth his/her weight in money... Melani
