How to Relieve Carpal Tunnel Pain in SECONDS
Dr. Rowe shows a step-by-step guide to get quick and long-lasting carpal tunnel syndrome relief.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is an overuse injury of wrist, that causes irritation and inflammation of the soft tissues around the carpal tunnel. This leads to compression of the median nerve.
When the median nerve gets compressed (aka pinched) it may lead to numbness, tingling, and pain into the palm, thumb, and fingers.
To fix this, we're going to focus on lengthening and strengthening the muscles and tendons around the carpal tunnel. Make sure to go through all parts (and exercises) to get the best results!

Life is so messed up. My employers workman's comp doesn't cover this injury and they didn't give me health insurance. My injury is so severe I can't wipe using my right hand. I lost my job, I lost my apartment and might soon be just another American on the street because of one injury at work. In Texas the employee goes up against a team of lawyers in a tribunal. The system is so messed up in America. Thanks to your video I can get some relief without taking a dozen pain pills

It's simply because carpal tunnel develops so slowly over time that, unless you've been at a job for like 15 years, the poor business that gets you at the end of a conga line of jobs gets smacked with workman's comp for something their job didn't do to you.

Really glad you found this video, and keep at the exercises!
Hi Dr. Rowe, After a lifetime of computer work, I have in recent years developed some tingling, numbness and grip/strength issues in both hands. I was (finally) recently diagnosed with severe carpal tunnel syndrome and scheduled for surgery next week. However when googling the topic, I became hesitant due to various accounts of long recoveries, hit and miss results but most importantly a number of sources suggesting that exercises could address the issue. While viewing a bunch of exercise videos I came upon yours which seemed credible and safe. I put the exercises to the test thinking that it couldn't hurt. I started with my left hand only (my right hand being the "control group") and lo and behold, after working through all of the exercises on the left hand only once, most of my tingling and numbness on my left hand disappeared. I will definitely doing these exercises daily on both hands for awhile, and perhaps once I have stabilized and improved, continue doing these on a periodic basis to maintain the hopefully good results. The only thing I am left wondering is why the pro orthopedic hand specialist didnt suggest going this route - could it be lack of knowledge (or more likely something to do with $$$?). Anyways, I am very thankful for the knowledge you have shared here!!! Thanks Dennis

Hi Dennis. I have been scouring the Internet looking for the 'magic bullet' in terms of exercises to eliminate the permanent tingling and numbness in my right hand's first 3 digits. Like you my next option is surgery. My nerve conduction test indicated severe carpal tunnel and possible nerve damage. I hesitate having surgery and like @askme3411 states below, I'm going through the other options. My ortho refused to give me a steroid shot because he stated that it can interfere with the surgery if I agree to have it soon. Unfortunately Dr. Rowe did not comment on your experience and his output would have given me a little hope. Out of the exercises presented which really made a difference for you?

Omg!! THANK YOU!! I’ve had a sore thumb and wrist for the past couple of months and it was beginning to cause me sooo much pain that I talked to the doctor about it. It got so I couldn’t safely take a cup of coffee in my left hand so I knew something was wrong. So the doctor said we could keep an eye on it and to see in a couple weeks if it was still bothering me I could go back to see him. So I went for a couple more weeks and the pain didn’t get worse but it sure didn’t improve either. During that time I purchased a brace for the thumb and wrist because I was becoming dangerous when the hand would just release whatever I would try to hold on to. The brace helped and felt so much better until I took it off and then the pain would return ten fold. The doc told me to just wear the brace at night and I could wear it longer if I needed to. So I’ve been wearing it but it’s a nuisance especially when in the kitchen because my hands are constantly in and out of water. So I’ll typically take it off but then the pain has been intense. I went back to the doc and he said well maybe you should see a physiotherapist about it. I was thinking shouldn’t we get an X-ray or something to see if something is broken? No that wasn’t necessary. So I asked him if he could refer me to a physiotherapist and he said well all the good ones that he knows are booked up several months ahead already. So I was beginning to wonder if it was arthritis in my thumb and wrist or what was going on. Then by chance I happened upon your video today and I’ve been trying a lot of the exercises and stretches that you recommended and oh my word they have been the best thing to help even better then the brace!!! I can’t thank you enough!! For the first time I feel like I have some idea as to what is going on with my wrist! I’m thrilled to have found you and I have a lot of areas of my body that could be improved upon with stretching and strengthening exercises so I’m subscribing to your channel and I hope you have many more videos that show these incredible step by step how to instructions. I’m also going to send a link of this video to my doc and recommend that he share it with the next person that comes in complaining of similar symptoms to what I was experiencing because I truly feel I can now heal my wrist and thumb. Oh my doc described it as tendinitis, I don’t know if that’s a catch all phrase or what but I’m sure looking forward to not continuing to live in daily pain. 🥰❤️🇨🇦🙏🏻😊 thank you so much!!! ❤

Thanks! I was a PTA and am now getting some of those symptoms - self massaging works pretty good, but I never did much with scraping, although I have always heard great things about it. Cupping is another area that works well, but not so much for the hand/forearm (especially with hair). Forgot some of my glides, and I like the detailed reps, was already doing the exercises without weight, but will implement it all and get this moving.
Watched twice; one for each hand. Bookmarking. Thank you. Both wrists/hands effected from walking my dog for 9 years because he pulls and shifts from one side to the other often, causing me to switch hands with the leash.
