Carpal Tunnel Treatment in Beverly Hills
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is one of the most common hand or wrist conditions. It often reflects changes in how nerves, joints, and muscles function together.
Dr. Jamie Mahtaban, DC and Dr. Yuliya Gruppina, DC has treated a wide range of carpal tunnel cases caused by nerve compression, wrist strain, and movement dysfunction. Understanding how the wrist connects with the arm, shoulders, and spine is key to effective care.
At Elite Chiropractic Beverly Hills, care focuses on identifying what is placing pressure on the median nerve and supporting healthy movement of the wrist, arm, neck, and upper body.
Most cases of CTS can be diagnosed through a detailed physical exam.

What Is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve becomes compressed as it travels through the carpal tunnel, a narrow passageway in the wrist.
This nerve controls sensation and movement in parts of the hand and fingers. When pressure builds in this area, symptoms such as numbness, tingling, pain, or weakness may develop.
Carpal tunnel symptoms can affect one or both hands and often worsen with repetitive use.
Common Reasons of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome usually develops gradually due to ongoing stress or restricted movement. Common reasons include:
- Repetitive hand or wrist motions
- Prolonged computer or phone use
- Poor wrist positioning
- Muscle tightness in the forearm
- Reduced joint movement in the wrist
- Neck or shoulder tension affecting nerve pathways
- Swelling or inflammation in the wrist
- Previous wrist injuries
In many cases, the issue is not isolated to the wrist alone. Dr. Mahtaban and Dr. Gruppina explain that dysfunction higher up in the kinetic chain, especially in the neck and shoulder, can influence how the nerve functions all the way into the hand.
Early Signs of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Early symptoms are often subtle and may come and go. Common early signs include:
- Tingling in the fingers
- Numbness in the thumb, index, or middle finger
- Hand weakness
- Difficulty gripping objects
- Symptoms that worsen at night
- Hand discomfort during repetitive tasks
Early evaluation can help prevent progression by identifying contributing mechanical stress before symptoms become more constant.
