Wrist Pain

The wrist is a very complicated and delicate structure comprised of joints, small bones, and ligaments that must fit together perfectly for proper function.

Just reaching out with your hand to break your fall can lead to a serious wrist injury. Fractures of the small bones of the wrist are a major concern.

Sports such as tennis, golf, baseball, bowling, weight training, and squash can all lead to wrist pain or wrist injury.

Our Approach

Wrist pain and dysfunction often go undiagnosed and patients may be unaware of effective treatment options. Many healthcare providers advise patients to rest and use over the counter medications without offering clear diagnosis or corrective therapies.

Careful evaluation of all movements of the wrist, forearm, and shoulders must be done. Addressing the dysfunction with a variety of soft tissue techniques such as Fascial Manipulation, Graston Technique®, and Active Release Technique® are all used by our experts.

If necessary, diagnostic imaging such as x-ray, MRI, or ultrasound may be used to rule-out any pathological conditions.
