Foot pain is defined as discomfort or soreness in any part of the foot that can interfere with walking and daily activities. Common causes include sprains from injuries, plantar fasciitis, which creates heel and arch pain, and arthritis that stiffens joints. Other factors include general heel pain from overuse and fractures that result from trauma or stress. Each type of foot pain can affect mobility and quality of life if left untreated. A chiropractor can help by improving alignment in the feet, ankles, and spine, reducing stress on the joints, and recommending exercises or lifestyle changes to support healing. If you are struggling with persistent foot pain, it is suggested that you consult a chiropractor who can accurately diagnose and offer natural relief management techniques.

Foot pain is a common problem that can stem from various causes, such as overuse, injury, or conditions like plantar fasciitis and flat feet. It may present as sharp, aching, or throbbing sensations, often making daily activities like walking or standing uncomfortable. Poor alignment of the foot and ankle can lead to additional strain on surrounding muscles and joints, worsening the problem. Left untreated, foot pain can interfere with mobility and overall quality of life.
Chiropractors take a holistic approach to addressing foot pain. By assessing posture, gait, and foot structure, they can identify underlying imbalances contributing to discomfort. Treatment often includes gentle joint adjustments to restore proper alignment, soft tissue therapies to ease tension, and custom exercises to strengthen the affected area. Chiropractic care aims to resolve the root causes of foot pain and improve function naturally.

1. How does foot pain relate to issues in the back or hips?
Foot pain can often be a symptom of biomechanical issues higher up the kinetic chain, such as misalignments in the hips or lower back. Chiropractors assess these connections to treat the root cause.
2. Do chiropractors treat conditions like plantar fasciitis differently from podiatrists?
Chiropractors focus on whole-body alignment, addressing how foot pain may stem from or contribute to imbalances in the spine or posture, complementing podiatric approaches.
3. Can chiropractic care improve my walking or running gait?
Yes, by correcting misalignments and improving joint function, chiropractic care can enhance gait mechanics, reducing strain and preventing future foot pain.

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve is compressed as it passes through the wrist, leading to pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand and fingers. Common causes include repetitive hand motions, poor ergonomics, wrist injuries, and inflammation from conditions such as arthritis. Symptoms often involve weakness, difficulty gripping objects, and discomfort that can worsen at night. If left untreated, carpal tunnel syndrome may reduce hand function and affect daily activities. A chiropractor can help by addressing wrist and neck alignment, reducing nerve compression, and providing exercises to improve strength and mobility. If you have symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome, it is suggested that you consult a chiropractor for expert care and natural relief.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal tunnel syndrome, or CTS, is a condition caused by compression of the median nerve, which runs through the carpal tunnel in the wrist. This tunnel is a narrow passageway surrounded by bones and ligaments, and when it becomes compressed or inflamed, it can put pressure on the nerve. Symptoms of CTS include tingling, numbness, weakness, and pain in the hand and fingers, often making simple tasks difficult and uncomfortable.

Chiropractic care offers a non-invasive approach to managing CTS by addressing alignment and reducing nerve pressure. Chiropractors start by evaluating the wrist, elbow, and even the cervical spine or neck, as misalignments in these areas can contribute to nerve compression in the wrist. Through gentle adjustments, chiropractors can improve the alignment of the wrist and spine, helping to reduce the pressure on the median nerve.

In addition to adjustments, chiropractors may use soft tissue therapy, such as stretching and myofascial release, to reduce inflammation surrounding the wrist and enhance mobility.

Why Consider Chiropractic for CTS?

Chiropractic care can provide lasting relief by targeting the root causes of CTS, reducing pain, and promoting long-term hand and wrist health.

Can Chiropractic Care Address Repetitive Strain as a Cause of CTS?

Chiropractic care can help manage repetitive strain by improving joint alignment and recommending ergonomic adjustments.
