Conditions We Treat
The hand and wrist are 2 of the most common painful areas. They are commonly injured in falls but also due to overuse injury such as manual labor, playing musical instruments or keyboard work. Pain can come from chronically irritated nerves as in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. This can also lead to areas of Osteoarthritis at the base of the thumb and in the fingers.
Perineural Injection Therapy is ideal for treating hand, wrist and forearm pain. Nerves in the upper extremity commonly get “trapped” (entrapment neuropathy) leading to pain, stiffness and decreased function of the hand. It is a viable non-surgical option for treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (median nerve), Lateral Elbow pain (Radial nerve), Medial Elbow pain (Brachial and Antebrachial cutaneous nerves), DeQuervain’s tenosynovitis (Radial nerve) and other conditions.
A study published in Mayo Clinic Proceedings in August 2017 showed the effectiveness of Perineural Injection Therapy in treating mild to moderate Carpal Tunnel Syndrome using dextrose.

“One of the most gratifying aspects of my clinic is seeing a patient walk in with debilitating pain and walk out feeling dramatically improved. Treating acute or chronic pain has been one of the motivating factors for my pursuit in learning Neural Prolotherapy. It is amazing to myself and the patient to have their pain extinguished. I have received more than one hug for treating patients that suffer from this severe pain.”
