Activity Modification

for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Reducing or modifying repetitive hand activities — particularly those involving sustained grip, vibration, or extreme wrist positions — reduces the compressive load driving CTS symptoms.

How it works

Reduces prolonged carpal tunnel pressure from repetitive wrist movements and forceful gripping. Allows reduction of intraneural oedema during periods of symptom exacerbation.

What to watch for

May be difficult in occupational settings. Occupational therapist assessment can identify specific modifications. Short-term activity modification during flares is more important than prolonged restriction.
