Nerve Gliding Exercises
for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Median nerve gliding exercises improve nerve mobility through the carpal tunnel, reducing adhesion and neural tension that contribute to CTS symptoms.
How it works
Progressive movement sequences mobilise the median nerve through its full excursion in the carpal tunnel, reducing inflammatory adhesions that restrict nerve movement and increase intraneural pressure.
What to watch for
Should be taught by a physiotherapist or occupational therapist. Nerve gliding should not provoke significant pain — gentle, progressive mobilisation is the goal. Most effective in mild to moderate CTS.
