Do you have carpal tunnel pain? Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common condition caused by compression of the median nerve in the wrist, leading to numbness, tingling, pain, and weakness in the hand and fingers, it's caused usually by repetitive strain. Crafter's and people who use their hands a lot for repetitive tasks are more likely to suffer with it. When it's really bad you might be offered surgery for it. However, you can ease the muscle tension that exacerbates the problem with a simple trigger point technique. I've found this has relieved the issue in many clients and prevented them having to have surgery.
