REPETITIVE STRAIN INJURIES (“RSI”)
Key Points:
· RSI are typically misdiagnosed as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
· Countless unnecessary surgeries are performed due to misdiagnosis.
· Osseous misalignment of the elbow, wrist, shoulder, and hand must be corrected.
· Proper therapy in RSI conditions also involves renormalization of the muscles.
· Avoid any exercise entailing weights or resistance until the condition is resolved.
The purpose of this article is to shed more light on RSI. These types of injuries are often misdiagnosed as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. However, the true source of the paresthesia (numbness, pain, and tingling) of the shoulder, wrist, and hand is due to an overload of the involved muscles beyond their tolerance point. This overload results in spasmodic muscles squeezing upon the nerves resulting in paresthesia.
Countless unnecessary surgeries are performed due to misdiagnosis. Correct therapy is necessary to cure the condition. Most important, the osseous misalignment of the elbow, wrist, shoulder, and hand must be corrected. If there is a misalignment, a qualified experienced practitioner must make the correction. An osseous misalignment can sometimes realign itself if the muscles are relaxed enough. However, with a prolonged misalignment healing cannot occur.
Proper therapy in RSI conditions also involves the muscles. The muscle fibers must be renormalized with the innervating nerves. This is accomplished by patient and extensive manual work on the muscles in a specific manner.
It is also important to avoid any exercise entailing weights or resistance. These activities will trigger more inflammation and spasms in the muscles that have already been overloaded beyond endurance levels. Furthermore, it is better to use heat on the muscles, rather than ice if there is no swelling or inflammation. Heat helps to relax the muscles and aids in increasing the physiological mechanics involved in the expulsion of toxins and infusion of nutrients.
Better healing time involves cases where the injured muscles are not prematurely exercised. Strengthening exercises are done after the spasmodic muscles are neurologically balanced, which is usually done manually. Better healing time also results in cases where the muscles are not injected with steroids. Steroids adversely affect the body in many ways, including weakening the muscles, ligaments, and tendons.
