Guest guest Posted June 26, 2000 Report Share Posted June 26, 2000 Hi! It is very interesting to hear all the various ways to treat Carpal Tunnel! My suggestion: Dig some fresh Comfrey root, the leaves just won't do. Wash and pound them with a hammer, until " slimey " , place in small amt of simmering water, simmer for aprox 7 min. Make a poutice and wrap around wrists, before bedtime. Insert hands through breadbag, and tie up ends of bag with loose rubber bands, to keep moisture in, and prevent dripping. I'm a massage therapist, and this worked practically overnite for me. A reputable chiropractor can " pull " the joint open, as the main reason, I beleive for this problem is the outer bone, of the forearm (ulner?) is jammed into the socket joint of the wrist, and quite possibly the elbow. There is a pressure point to check, just below the elbow, about 2 inches, along the bottom of the ulner.... People also seem to get releif by using ginger and cypress in a base of almond, grapessed, apricot and jojoba. I think it's the ginger mainly, but it can cause a reaction in some people, so make sure it's diluted. I really enjoy all the aromatherapists who write into the newgroup!! Very informative and interesting! Thank you!
