How wrist pain is treated at The Bridge Chiropractic
Most people rest their wrist or wear a brace. After checking for injuries that need further medical evaluation, we look at wrist mobility, forearm strength, grip capacity, and how the wrist handles weight-bearing. Then we progressively rebuild strength and tolerance for daily activities and exercise.
