Common Diseases > Carple Tunnel

Introduction
Prevention and Treatment
Surgery

As this condition is caused by repetitive movements over a long period of time, the ways to prevent this painful occurrence are to add more variety to the tasks performed and to take breaks where you use your limbs and muscles in a completely different way from when working.

The technical aspects of the reducing the risks of Cumulative Trauma / Stress Disorders suggest that wrist position may contribute to the problem. Workplace ergonomics have long been thought to be a contributing factor and the alteration of the worksite is a must for anyone doing any type of repetitive work. Wrist supports, chair and desk height are important. Many medical clinics and the ACC have information on this.

For those using computers and other short range repetitive movements, it helps to:
  1. take regular stretch breaks, remember those eye rests prescribed and almost no one takes, and then wonder why eye sight fails?
  2. set your mouse to slow travel, this make your arm movements greater, creating more stimulating exercise
  3. take time out to relax completely
  4. learn to recognise and deal with stress factors in your life
There is a lot of evidence that exercises will prevent the symptoms of Cumulative Trauma / Stress Disorders. Have regular rest periods and stretch those muscles to extend your range of movement to your comfortable maximum. Yoga, Tai chi and swimming are excellent for this.

Vigorous exercise helps to eliminate the build up of waste products in the body. Sweat.. swim, run, martial arts, aerobics

Treatments
There is a lot of evidence that exercise will control and assist recovery from the symptoms of Cumulative Trauma / Stress Disorders and rest and total relaxation are as important, the more completely you are able to relax the body and have complete rest, the better you body is able to respond to stresses either physical or mental.

Exercise is important to:
  1. maintain the energy flow within the body
  2. to extend energy to the extremities
  3. tone the whole body
  4. maintain flexibility of the joints
  5. exercise is not advised when the condition is very acute and painful.
Massage has been proven (American Massage Association) to be very effective as a treatment.
Massage works by:
  1. physically removing the build up of toxins
  2. improving circulation
  3. reducing inflammation
  4. restoring function
Exercise systems we suggest are, Yoga, Tai Chi, Dance
