Conditions

Carpal tunnel and nerve pain.

Forearm and wrist pain, numbness, and a grip that has quietly stopped working. Usually presented with three options: brace it, inject it, or operate.

The tell is usually something small. You cannot hold a cup of coffee. Buttons defeat you. You put the milk down because your hand will not close on it properly. By the time most people book an appointment, the grip has been going for a while and they have already been told it is arthritis, or it is age, or it is time to talk about surgery.

Surgery works for a lot of people and this page is not going to talk you out of it. What is worth knowing before you schedule one is that the median nerve travels a long way before it reaches your wrist. It passes the neck, the shoulder, and the forearm, and it can be irritated at any point along that route. A wrist that hurts does not always mean a wrist that is the problem. That is why the exam looks at the whole path.

What the exam is looking for

When the source is compression or irritation somewhere treatable along that line, acupuncture and adjustment together often change things faster than patients expect. When it is not, Dr. Simaan will tell you that too.

"Recently, it got so bad I couldn't hold a cup of coffee, or pour milk. I couldn't even curl a 5lb weight without pain at a 7/8 out of 10. My wife recommended I see the Limitless Doc. She's been seeing him with great success. After the first trip my forearm pain went away in two days. After the second, my wrist pain went away the day of."
