Carpal tunnel + back pain when sleeping

By Archived User | Updated: Dec 31, 2021 | Published: Dec 31, 2021

Hey all!

So I have a person who has bilateral carpal tunnel but the right side is worse because that the dominant hand. There is pain and numbness and at night awakening from the pain/asleep hand.

I’ve been hearing a lot about using upper points to treat CTS such as points in the shoulder/back area. I am curious as to which points everyone is using with success because this person also experiences pain in the upper back region when sleeping on the left side.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance!
