Alternative healing?!


Question: I have chronic problems with the ligaments and tendons of my wrists. Physiotherapy and countless visits to the doctor have not helped.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I am willing to pay a ridiculous amount of money for the cure.

Hand Surgery and Treatment is a sub-specialty of Orthopedics. A Hand specialist will serve a fellowship after orthopedic residency. There are a number of "Hand Centers" in the USA. One with a nation-wide good reputation is The Hand Center, in Philadelphia.

There are Certified Hand Therapists (CHT), who are occupational or physical therapists who specialize in hand therapy. The website below has a directory for finding a Certified Hand Therapist in your area.

Chiropractors and acupuncturists are not likely to be any good, because they treat the symptoms of the disease rather than root causes. Chiropractors are also very likely to entice the patient into voodoo humbug crackpotteries such as "Applied Kinesiology".

Try acupuncture or chiropractic.

Doesn't have to be a ridiculous amount. Get massage therapy, and see a good Chiropractor and an Acupuncturist - it will help.

Chiropractic manipulation of the carpals will likely help. Finding a good one that treats extremities is another problem. Go to "Find a doctor" on the American Chiropractic Associations website to find one in your area. When you call the office ask if they treat extremities.

Find a qualified chiropractor, and you're gonna be fine.
