How does TCM view {condition_name}?
TCM views carpal tunnel syndrome as Qi and Blood stagnation in wrist channels where Dampness, Phlegm, or Cold obstruct nerve pathways while Spleen and Kidney weakness impairs circulation.
Carpal tunnel syndrome causes numbness, tingling, and pain in the hand and wrist due to nerve compression, often affecting work productivity and daily activities through persistent discomfort and reduced hand function. At Qin's Clinic, we use Traditional Chinese Medicine to promote circulation through compressed areas, reduce inflammation naturally, and restore proper nerve function without invasive procedures or long-term medication dependence.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), carpal tunnel syndrome is commonly attributed to Qi and Blood stagnation in wrist channels, often due to Dampness, Phlegm, or Cold obstructing the median nerve pathway. Repetitive strain or trauma weakens Spleen and Kidney function, leading to poor circulation and nerve compression that causes characteristic symptoms.
