[edit on Wikidata]
This article is about physical therapy in carpal tunnel syndrome.
Physical therapists and occupational therapists are involved in the assessment and intervention process with clients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Physical and occupational therapy professionals provide education, symptom management (such as splinting, physical agent modalities, and manual therapy), and recommendations for modifying tasks, equipment, and the environment to prevent or reduce further complications. Multiple evidence-based reviews and practice guidelines have been published to provide therapy providers and the public with information as to when and how conservative care for CTS by a physical or occupational therapist is appropriate.[1][2][3][4]
