With the age of technology and the low success rate of surgery, patients have become educated to more effective alternatives for the treatment of neck pain .. We can offer our patients a highly successful, non-surgical alternative treatment.
Cold Laser
Laser therapy has been increasingly used in medicine over the last few years as a non-surgical means of effecting cures for a variety of pains and ailments, for assisting normal healing processes to occur earlier and better, and as prophylaxis against the occurrence of undesirable side effects. Laser therapy stimulates the natural healing power in the cells of the body. The Lasotronic ML 830 uses the energy of light, known as photon energy, to stimulate the activity of cell components.
By using this therapy, you have a simple, effective, non-drug, medical alternative. Conservative management of acute and chronic injuries and post-operative wounds have come to include the use of photon energy because it is quickly effective and easy to administer. It is becoming increasingly difficult to find a physiotherapy department or clinic that does not have access to this modality.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
You are sitting at your workstation, and it's toward the end of the day. Over the last several months, you have been noticing a peculiar pain in your wrists and in part of your hands. Numbness and tingling sensations are also present. At first, the pain and numbness went away after a few hours of rest, but now the symptoms last longer. You start to worry, because now your forearms and elbows feel very sore, and your neck and shoulders ache. When you go home to prepare dinner, simple things like using a knife and opening a jar are suddenly difficult to do.
If you suffer from these symptoms, there is a good chance that you have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). CTS occurs when the median nerve, a major nerve of the arm and hand, is being compressed. This important nerve originates in the neck, passes underneath the collarbone, travels down the length of the arm, and into the hand. It is responsible for sensory and muscle function in the thumb and first three fingers as well as parts of the forearm.
By definition, CTS occurs when the median nerve is compressed as it passes through the carpal tunnel, a small space inside the wrist that also contains the nine flexor tendons of the forearm. The most common source of compression is from inflamed, swollen tendon sheaths (coverings) which can result from repetitive finger-dependent tasks like typing, mousing, filing, and hard gripping. As the fingers are moved repetitiously, the tendons slide against one another and cause "cumulative trauma" and swelling.
So, knowing this information, what should you do? If you believe that you are developing carpal tunnel syndrome, you should call Total Health for a FREE consultation with a doctor who specializes in treating this disorder and who completely understands how neck problems relate to CTS. If you have already been diagnosed with CTS and have been receiving standard medical treatment described above with no results, you should call us today for a second opinion.
If you are experiencing pain or numbness, it's definitely worth your time to investigate our treatment methods. Be aware that pressure to the median nerve left uncorrected can lead to long-term nerve damage and loss of function. Don't compromise the full use of your hands. Call or e-mail us today for a complimentary consultation with one of our doctors.
