Try this easy exercise to stretch the tendons and ease the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome.

1. Extend your wrists and fingers outward, ahead of your body, positioning your hands and fingers toward the ceiling, like you are signaling someone to "stop".

2. Wait five seconds in this position, then relax and straighten both wrists in front of the torso.

3. Keeping the arms straight out front, clench both hands in a fist.

4. Rotate the wrists down to the floor while maintaining a fist and then hold for five seconds.

5. Relax and straighten both wrists and hands into their normal position and repeat the above steps for as many as five to seven more times.

For TOS Chiropractors can adjust ribs whether it be the first rib or a cervical rib. It's one more option prior to surgery and as far as carpal tunnel goes usually its a tight pronator teres which usually isn't addressed until after unsuccessful surgery. Worth a try.
