Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Relief with SoftWave Therapy in Winston-Salem at Stoetzel Chiropractic Clinic

Published May 8th, 2025 by Stoetzel Chiropractic Clinic

A Non-Surgical, Drug-Free Approach to Wrist and Hand Pain

Do you experience numbness, tingling, or weakness in your hand and fingers? Does your wrist pain interfere with work, sleep, or daily activities? You may be suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS)—and now there’s a powerful, non-invasive way to treat it.

At Stoetzel Chiropractic Clinic in Winston-Salem, NC, Dr. John Stoetzel and his experienced team are helping patients overcome carpal tunnel pain with SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology (TRT)—an advanced, science-based therapy that promotes healing at the cellular level.


What Is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is caused by compression of the median nerve, which travels from the forearm into the palm through a narrow passage in the wrist called the carpal tunnel. Swelling, inflammation, or thickening of the surrounding tendons and tissues can narrow the tunnel and pinch the nerve, leading to pain and dysfunction.


Causes of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

  • Repetitive wrist movements (typing, assembly work, tool use)

  • Poor ergonomics or prolonged pressure on the wrist

  • Wrist injuries or fractures

  • Arthritis or joint degeneration

  • Fluid retention from pregnancy or systemic inflammation

  • Diabetes or nerve-damaging conditions


Symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

  • Numbness or tingling in the thumb, index, middle, and half of the ring finger

  • Pain or burning in the wrist and forearm

  • Weak grip strength and hand clumsiness

  • Difficulty performing fine motor tasks (buttoning clothes, holding a pen)

  • Nighttime pain or symptoms that wake you from sleep

  • Relief by “shaking out” the hands

Left untreated, CTS can lead to permanent nerve damage and loss of function in the hand.


How SoftWave Therapy Helps Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology uses electrohydraulic supersonic acoustic waves that travel at speeds over 3,000 mph, deeply penetrating the wrist and forearm tissues to reduce inflammation, restore blood flow, and activate cellular healing.

This FDA-cleared technology is non-surgical, non-invasive, and requires no medications or injections—making it a trusted alternative for long-term relief from carpal tunnel pain.


The Science Behind SoftWave for Nerve and Tendon Repair

SoftWave Therapy works by initiating a cascade of positive biological responses that restore the health of the soft tissues and median nerve.

  • VEGF and eNOS Expression
    Stimulates angiogenesis (growth of new blood vessels) to improve circulation in the carpal tunnel

  • Stem Cell Activation & Migration
    Signals resident stem cells to repair damaged nerve fibers and surrounding connective tissue

  • Toll-Like Receptor Modulation
    Regulates the body’s inflammatory pathways, calming irritation around the median nerve

  • PCNA and BMP Activation
    Promotes collagen regeneration and tissue remodeling in the flexor tendons and wrist ligaments

  • Flushes Out Senescent Cells
    Removes old, damaged cells that contribute to chronic swelling and tissue stiffness

Unlike injections that simply mask pain, SoftWave targets the root cause of carpal tunnel symptoms—restoring true function to the nerve and soft tissue structures.


Results That Speak for Themselves

Patients at Stoetzel Chiropractic Clinic report:

  • Reduced numbness and tingling

  • Less pain with wrist and finger movement

  • Stronger grip and hand coordination

  • Improved ability to work, sleep, and perform everyday tasks

  • Avoidance of carpal tunnel surgery or steroid injections

Whether you're a desk worker, musician, tradesperson, or athlete, SoftWave may help you regain control and confidence in your hands again.
