Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Treatment with Radial ShockWave™ Therapy
What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a common nerve entrapment condition caused by pressure on the median nerve as it passes through the carpal tunnel in the wrist. It often results from repetitive motions, wrist overuse, inflammation, or medical conditions like diabetes and hypothyroidism.
Symptoms include:
- Numbness and tingling in the thumb, index, and middle fingers
- Weakness in grip strength
- Pain or discomfort radiating up the arm
If untreated, CTS can worsen and cause permanent nerve damage or muscle atrophy.
How reGener8 treats it
The reGener8 ZS1019 applies Radial ShockWave™ Therapy, which helps alleviate CTS by targeting the soft tissue around the carpal tunnel to reduce inflammation, stimulate healing, and decompress the median nerve.
Mechanism of Action:
- Shockwaves break down fibrosis and stimulate microcirculation in the wrist area
- Reduces inflammation in tendons and surrounding structures
- Stimulates tissue regeneration, improving nerve gliding and reducing compression
- Neuromodulatory effects reduce pain perception and restore hand function
Device Features:
- Radial probe heads with 15–20 mm diameter for precise treatment of small areas like the wrist
- Adjustable frequency (e.g., 10–12 Hz) and pressure (up to 6 Bar) tailored to patient sensitivity
- Safe, non-surgical alternative to injections or carpal tunnel surgery
This approach is particularly effective for early-to-moderate stages of CTS and for patients looking to avoid invasive procedures.
Recommended treatment protocol
- Mode: Radial ShockWave™ Therapy
- Energy: 3 Bar
- Frequency: 10 Hz
- Shocks per session: 2000
- Sessions: 3–5
- Interval between sessions: Every 5–7 days
Use radial 15 mm probe with coupling gel. Adjust energy and frequency based on discomfort and response. Monitor for signs of nerve sensitivity during treatment.
