Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Relief in Midtown NYC
Do your hands tingle, go numb, or ache especially after typing, texting, or working at a desk all day? You could be experiencing carpal tunnel syndrome, a common condition that affects the wrist and hand. Midtown NYC chiropractor, Dr. Robert Shire, offers gentle, natural care to help ease your symptoms, restore mobility, and get you back to feeling and functioning at your best.
What Is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) occurs when the median nerve—the main nerve that runs through your wrist—becomes compressed or irritated as it passes through the carpal tunnel.
This narrow passageway can become inflamed due to repetitive motion, poor wrist posture, arthritis, or even fluid retention.
The result? Tingling, weakness, or pain that can make gripping, typing, or lifting uncomfortable and difficult.
Many people assume surgery or medication is the only option—it’s not. Chiropractic care can be an effective, drug-free way to relieve pressure on the median nerve and support long-term healing.
How Chiropractic Care Can Help
Dr. Shire focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying cause of nerve compression, not just treating the symptoms. Gentle chiropractic adjustments to the wrist, elbow, shoulder, and spine can restore better alignment, improve nerve flow, and reduce inflammation.
He often explains,
“When the joints are moving properly, the body’s natural healing process can take over. That’s what chiropractic is all about—helping your body function the way it’s designed to.”
By restoring balance through targeted adjustments, chiropractic care can help:
- Reduce numbness and tingling
- Improve hand and wrist strength
- Decrease inflammation and pain
- Prevent future flare-ups
Additional Support for Wrist and Hand Health
In addition to chiropractic adjustments, Dr. Shire may recommend custom-fitted orthotics to improve posture and alignment from the ground up—especially if your wrist or shoulder tension is linked to poor biomechanics.
He also provides on-site chiropractic care across NYC and the Hamptons, so you can receive treatment conveniently at your office, home, or hotel.
