How does the CARPAL CARE Prehabilitative Exercise Program work?
A. CTS, when caused by repetitive or sustained activities, acute wrist angles, vibration, temperature extremes, or localized contact stresses, can be prevented. Additionally, when symptoms have already manifested themselves they can be alleviated in most cases. When used regularly as directed, CARPAL CARE lengthens the overdeveloped and foreshortened muscle groups (the flexors) that have lost their original range of mobility due to the repetitive motions required by the job. At the same time, it strengthens and conditions the weaker opposing muscle groups (the extensors) in the hands and forearms that have been left in a relative state of underdevelopment. By creating stabilized, balanced musculotendinous structures in the arm and hand, you can greatly reduce or eliminate the abnormal pressures in the carpal tunnel and on the median nerve, allowing the body’s natural healing processes to function. The CARPAL CARE Exercises are specifically designed to strengthen all of the extensor mus
