Summary

This study tests whether adding neck and upper back exercises to standard physical therapy can further reduce pain and improve hand function in people with carpal tunnel syndrome. Sixty adults with CTS will be split into two groups: one gets standard therapy alone, the other adds cervicothoracic exercises for 6 weeks. Researchers will measure pain, grip strength, and daily function before and after treatment.
