MEDICAL MASSAGE
Experience the Difference...
A Massage Can Make
Carpel Tunnel Syndrome
What is it?
Carpel Tunnel Syndrome is pain, tingling, and other problems in your hand because of pressure on the median nerve in your wrist.
Symptoms
Carpel Tunnel Syndrome starts gradually, with frequent burning, tingling, or itching numbness in the palm of the hand and fingers, especially the thumb, the index & middle fingers. Symptoms may first occur at night while sleeping. One with
Carpel Tunnel Syndrome may wake up feeling the need to “shake out” the hand or wrist. As symptoms worsen, a person might feel tingling during the day. Decreased grip strength may make it difficult to form a fist, grasp small objects or perform other manual tasks. In chronic and/or untreated cases, the muscles at the base of the thumb may waste away.
Solution
At PWFC, we will assess the cause of your pain and explain our course of action to help alleviate that pain, whether it be through Medical Massage, Myoskeletal alignment techniques, or through strength training and nutrition. We will tailor a program of proven, yet simple techniques to help you. With Certified Massage Therapy and/or Certified
Personal Training, we will partner with you, tracking your progress, keeping you motivated and helping you achieve your goal. We will put all that we have, and then some, into getting you better.
IT Band Syndrome
What is it?
IT Band Syndrome (Iliotibal Band Syndrome) is a common overuse injury of the tissues located on the other part of the thigh and knee.
Symptoms
ITBS symptoms range from a stinging sensation at the knee joint to swelling or thickening of the tissue at the point where the band moves over the femur. The pain may not occur immediately during activity, but may intensify over time. Pain may be above and below the knee, where the ITB actually attaches to the tibia.

Sciatica
What is it?
Sciatica describes persistent pain felt along the sciatic nerve. This is the longest nerve in the body. Pain results when this nerve is compressed or injured. It most commonly results from inflammation, bone spurs due to arthritis or a herniated disk in the lower spine.
Symptoms
Sciatica causes pain that begins in the lower back and spreads through the buttocks,
leg, calf and, occasionally, the foot. The pain generally feels dull, aching or burning.
Sometimes, it starts gradually, worsens during the night, and is aggravated by motion. Sciatica also can cause tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness in the affected leg.

What is it?
Shin splints are injuries to the front of the outer leg
caused by overuse. Seen mostly in runners or aggressive
walkers.
Symptoms
Pain in the front of the outer leg
below the knee. Discomfort
noted early in a workout, then
lessens, then reappears near
the end of the training session.
Pain is described as dull at first,
with continuing trauma can
become very extreme.
Normally caused by a tight
and understretched calf muscle. Left alone, can be a
disabilitating condition.

Upper Back Pain
What is it?
Upper back pain can happen as a result of trauma or sudden
injury. It can also occur through back strain or poor posture
(rounding shoulders and standing with head forward
over strained back muscle). There are many different muscle
tissues involved. People who work at computers most of the
day are familiar with upper back pain if they are not practicing
good posture. In the vast majority of cases, upper
back pain is due to muscular irritation or joint dysfunction.
Symptoms
Back pain can have any of the
following characteristics:
- dull, aching sensation in the back
- stabbing or shooting pain that
can radiate down the back to
the leg
- inability to stand up straight
- decreased range of motion in
arm with pain shooting down
arms to hands
- headaches
- ringing in the ears
- tight jaw
- pain while sleeping

Knee Pain
What is it?
Knee pain is a common complaint for many people and
can be related to knee joint or around the knee. Injury,
degeneration or arthritis can be the cause of knee pain,
along with tight muscle tissue (abductors, quads, hamstring,
IT Band, or your calf). A tight calf can be the cause
of knee pain if you are a cyclist or a runner or if you spend
long hours on your feet. Inactiviity can be as much a
cause of knee pain as well.
Symptoms
Painful feeling in knee that
begins suddenly, could worsen
gradually, could be dull or achy
or even sharp or severe. Located
along one or both sides of the
knee, around the kneecap,
behind the knee or in the knee
joint. Triggered by everyday
activities, overuse or injury and worsened by movement,
prolonged sitting or standing or rest or inactivity.

course of action to help alleviate that pain, whether it be

Leg Pain
What is it?
Leg pain is any type of pain or
discomfort in the leg, from the
hip joint to the heels. Leg pain
is a fairly common complaint.
Your legs are made up of
joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments,
nerves and blood vessels,
all of which are subject to
injury, infection or other conditions
that can cause leg pain.
Symptoms
Other symptoms may occur with leg pain depending
on the underlying disorder or condition. Other symptoms
that may occur with leg pain:
- fatigue
- joint pain
- reduced range of motion
- inability to walk or put weight on your leg
- popping sound at time of leg injury
- progressive weakness and numbness down the leg
- sores on your feet and toes that do not heal properly

Hip Pain
What is it?
Pain in and around the hip area. Pain could be felt in
the groin area as well as the buttocks area. There are
many reasons for this kind of discomfort. Sitting can
cause pain as well.
Symptoms
You may complain that your
hip just hurts. Most often, pain
is felt in the front of the hip, but
the pain may be also felt
along the outside part of the
hip or back side. Limping is a
way the body compensates
for pain by minimizing the
amount of weight the hip has
to support while walking.
Beware of this condition. The more you limp, the worse
this will become. It can increase back problems. Your
muscles control your bony structure.

explain our course of action to help alleviate that pain,

alignment techniques, or through strength training and

Low Back Pain
What is it?
Low back pain (also called lumbago) is a common musculoskeletal
disorder affecting over 80% of people at
some point in their life. It accounts for more sick leave and
disability than any other medical condition.
Symptoms
Pain in the lumbosacral area
(lower part of the back) is the primary
symptom of low pack pain.
Pain may radiate down the front,
side or back of your leg, or may
be confined to the lower back.
Pain may worsen with activity.
Occasionally, the pain may be
worse at night or with prolonged
sitting such as on a long car trip.
Weakness & numbness may occur, along with the inability
to plantor flex the foot (meaning you would be unable to
stand on your toes or bring your foot downward).

our course of action to help alleviate that pain, whether it
