Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (Repetitive Stress Injury)
Micro trauma to the hands and wrists is a common occurence among assembly line workers, key board operators, grocery store clerks and many more. Repetitive motion and vibration, when accompanied with spinal problems and joint disfunctions, can result in a condition known as carpal tunnel syndrome.
Symptoms include numbness and tingling, pain, weakness and loss of strength in the hands.
The hands are supplied by the nerves in the lower neck area. If you have pain in the wrist, it can originate from your neck and consequently affect your shoulder, elbow and the wrist joints.

Testimonials
I was diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, a very painful experience. My left hand was swollen like a full-blown balloon. This is one pain I definitely could not live with so I mentioned it to the Doctor. Obviously the first course of action, you guessed it, was medication. Following several weeks of taking these pills there was no relief. As a matter of fact things seemed to be deteriorating. As a next step the doctors suggested surgery. I was so desperate at this point I would have done anything to get rid of that horrible pain. Although being aware that these operations are unsuccessful 50% of the time, and not knowing where else to turn for relief I agreed. and surgery was scheduled.
In the mean time my wife read a newspaper article written on Dr. Goel. Coincidentally the article happened to be on Carpal Tunnel syndrome. My wife tried to convince me to make an appointment, but I would not listen. The pain and frustration led me to believe that nothing would work for me. Thank God my wife did not give up. She insisted that I try this alternative. She was so persistent and determined, that she just went ahead and booked an appointment for me with Dr. Goel and she finally convinced me - something I don't regret one bit today.
After the consultation, we discussed my course of action and I gave her the green light and my full trust and together we went to work. This was the best decision I ever made. Within one month into my care I started to see an improvement, so much so that I decided to cancel my surgery. As the months went by, the pain and my overall health continued to improve. My doctors were amazed that the carpal tunnel syndrome was gone... they were speechless.
Seven years later and I still feel great. That unbearable pain in my wrist never returned. I am to this day free of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and my energy has been fully restored. I continue to see Dr. Goel on a regular basis because I want to maintain this type of health for a long time.
As Dr. Goel puts it "No human being regardless of their medical situation should live in pain". I will always be grateful to Dr. Goel.

For more than 10 years I have been suffering with tingling in my hands, dizziness, headaches, neck pain and back pain. My family doctor finally referred me to a neurologist. After many tests and x-rays, no major illness was detected and I was prescribed pain killers for my pain.These medications only caused nausea, terrible headaches and dizzines.
I had tried my husband's chiropractor, but some how after 2 sessions, I found that I was unable to tolerate his technique and stopped seeing him.
One day as I was reading the newspaper, I came across Dr. Goel's name and immediately made an appointment to see her.I found her to be a warm and caring doctor who explined in detail my problem and the corrective measures we would use.
In as little as 4 months, I felt 80% better all around. It is gratifying to know there is someone like Dr. Goel who is sympathetic to your needs, while helping you get well.
