Informationen zum Autor Dr. Scott Fried is an upper-extremity-nerve specialist and, ironically, a surgeon. He lectures regularly on alternative therapies for carpal tunnel and repetitive-strain injuries. The author of Light at the End of the Carpal Tunnel , he lives in Pennsylvania. Klappentext For sufferers of carpal tunnel and other repetitive-strain injuries, an authoritative and practical guide to self-healing alternatives Zusammenfassung There are more than 500,000 carpal tunnel surgeries done annually in the United States but approximately 30 percent of these patients will be no better as a result. The truth is, most physicians are too quick to consider surgery as the first line of defense against carpal tunnel and other repetitive-strain injuries. In this comprehensive guide to recognizing and treating these debilitating conditions, Dr. Scott Fried takes a strong position against surgery and offers self-healing alternatives that have better results. From understanding the signs and symptoms at an early stage to modifying work and lifestyle; from proven alternative therapies and helpful medications to nutrition and exercise, The Carpal Tunnel Helpbook provides authoritative advice and practical, up-to-date information to spare many patients the ordeal of surgery to treat their injuries.
