研究概览

简要总结

In carpal tunnel syndrome,trigger points are often found in the biceps muscle,in the aponeurosis of the biceps and in the pronator teres muscle.

We hypothesise that by eliminating these trigger points,using ischemic compressions, may diminish the symptoms.

详细描述

Using one thumb on the other,the pressure is applied 10 seconds on each TrPs.The treatment is done on each visit for a total of 15(without Charge).
