Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, abbreviated CTS, is one of the most common health issues seen in today's workplace.  Millions of individuals are affected every year.

CTS is a caused by irrtation to the median nerve. This nerve originates in the neck and travels down the arm and into the hand.  The nerve can be irritated from a traumatic injury like whiplash or repetitive activities such as typing at a computer, sliding items over a scanner at a check-out stand or frequent hammering.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome symptoms include numbness, tingling, burning and/or pain in the hand wrist and fingers.  These symptoms will often wake people up in the middle of the night.  It is also common for individuals to report weakness and a loss of grip strength.
