About

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a common neurological disorder due to entrapment of median nerve which runs from the forearm into the hand through a tunnel, compressed or pinched due to anatomical factors, such as a narrow carpal tunnel. Widespread condition that affects 3-6% of the general population worldwide. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) a prevalent and debilitating condition leading to disability despite optimal interventions to rehabilitation that aimed to reducing pain and improving neural function status in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Patients .

Full description

This study investigates the additional benefits of Aquatic Therapy and Neuro-dynamic Technique in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Patients .The researcher employs a randomized controlled trial methodology. Participants are divided into two groups: one receiving Aquatic Therapy, and the other receiving Neuro-dynamic Technique.

Outcomes are assessed over an 8-week period, focusing on pain levels and neural function restoration and grip strength. The significance of this study lies in its potential to enhance current treatment protocols, offering a more effective, intervention to alleviate symptoms and improve the quality of life, neural restoration for those suffering Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS).
