Cubital Tunnel Syndrome Treatment & Relief Ireland
Treating Cubital Tunnel Syndrome In Dublin, Ireland
Cubital tunnel syndrome is a condition that affects the ulnar nerve. This nerve runs from your shoulder down to your hand, and cubital tunnel syndrome can cause pain, numbness, and tingling in your arm and hand, and “cubital tunnel syndrome, is the second most common peripheral nerve compression syndrome in the upper extremity”.
If you are experiencing these symptoms, you may want to consider visiting a physical therapy and chiropractic clinic like Dublin Chiropractic & Physiotherapy. We offer a variety of treatments that can help relieve the symptoms of cubital tunnel syndrome.
What Causes Cubital Tunnel Syndrome?
Cubital tunnel syndrome is caused by compression of the ulnar nerve. This can happen when the elbow is bent for a prolonged period of time, as in holding a telephone to your head. Other causes include trauma to the area, such as a fall or car accident, and even some medical conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.
Seek urgent medical care (GP, A&E, or call 112/999) if you have loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness around the groin or buttocks, progressive leg or arm weakness, or pain with fever, unexplained weight loss, chest pain or breathlessness.

How We Treat Cubital Tunnel Syndrome At Dublin Chiropractic & Physiotherapy
At Dublin Chiropractic & Physiotherapy we use a combination of physical therapy and chiropractic treatments to treat cubital tunnel syndrome, including: physical therapy, chiropractic care, laser therapy and shockwave therapy.
Physical Therapy For Cubital Tunnel Syndrome
Physical therapy can help stretch and strengthen the muscles that surround the cubital tunnel to help relieve pressure on your ulnar nerve.
Physical therapy will help you:
- Improve your range of motion and flexibility to make it easier for you to move your arm without pain or discomfort.
- Strengthen the muscles around cubital tunnel so they can support it better, making pressure less likely on cubital tunnel.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care may form part of your plan, focusing on movement in the neck and arm.
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses light. The evidence for it is limited, and results vary.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy uses high-energy sound waves applied over the treated area. The evidence for it in nerve problems is limited.
If you are experiencing pain, tingling, or numbness in your arm and hand, contact us to schedule a consultation.
