• CTRAC is a carpal ligament stretching device designed to open the carpal tunnel and provide more space for the median nerve. Taking the pressure off the nerve quickly decreases the symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. C TRAC was designed and developed by Rehabilitation Medicine Physicians to alleviate the hand pain, tingling, numbness and aggravation of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome by stretching the Carpal Ligament. Two clinical studies have demonstrated the decrease in symptoms when C TRAC is used. A recent C TRAC user survey showed that 75% of the patients that were told they needed Carpal Tunnel surgery were able to cancel and avoid surgery after using C TRAC. 

Most patients obtain relief in the first 2 weeks of using C TRAC.

Independent Clinical trials shows the dramatic decrease in symptoms of patients with mild, moderate and severe Carpal Tunnel syndrome. READ THE CLINICAL TRIALS and the testimonials. We emphasize evaluating clinical trials when purchasing products for medical conditions.

ARTICLE PUBLISHED IN THE JOURNAL OF HAND THERAPY .


C TRAC provides a controlled amount of stretching force to the Carpal Ligament by inflating the cuff (bladder), wait 2-5 minutes and then remove, you can use it in both hands by "flipping" the C TRAC. Apply 3 times a day for 4-6 weeks. You can start seeing results in 2-4 days as the pressure on the median nerve starts to decrease.


•  CTRAC is a patented, FDA registered medical device.
It was developed by two physician brothers for Treatment of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Research Studies: Symptom decrease with C TRAC use.



C TRAC has been tested in clinical trials.

The graph shows the decrease in pain, tingling and numbness after  4 weeks using C TRAC. 
The results of this research study were published in the Journal of Hand Therapy in 2009. The full article is in the reasearch page of this site. 

The success in treatment of CTS with C TRAC evidenced in this article was corroborated by another research study done by Workers Comp System in PR. The study was repeated by them in order to certify the results of our initial study. They hadsimilar  decreases in patient symptoms. They recommended use of C TRAC for treatment of CTS.

C TRAC treats the cause of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Symptoms

The problem in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is that the Carpal Tunnel is narrow. The narrow tunnels pinches the median nerve, causes inflammation and nerve related symptoms. C TRAC opens the Carpal Tunnel by Gently Stretching the Carpal Ligament and increasing the cross sectional area of the Carpal Tunnel. This action takes pressure off the median nerve and allows it to heal.

Surgeons also attack the cause of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.....with surgery.


Most patients obtain significant relief within 2 weeks of using C TRAC.

C TRAC works in both hands. You do not buy for left and right.

If symptoms recur months or years later C TRAC can be reused.

C TRAC is relatively inexpensive. 

Considering the risks and costs of surgery. Consider a trial of C TRAC for 6 weeks prior to surgery. Research results indicate you may save your hands and your body from a surgery.
 

Why so many  people have Surgery to treat their Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

The AAOS estimated there were 330,000 Carpal Tunnel Release Surgeries in the US in 2007.  

These many  people end up having surgery because conservative treatment does not attempt to "open" the Carpal Tunnel. Conservative Therapies like splinting, medications, injections, acupuncture, light therapy, fluido therapy, creams, ICE or heat do not even attempt to increase the area of the Carpal Tunnel, consequently, the pressure on the nerve continues and the patients eventually have to undergo surgery to "open" their Carpal Tunnel to take pressure off the median nerve.


Surgery focuses on opening the Carpal Tunnel and on taking the pressure off the Median Nerve by increasing the area of the Carpal Tunnel but, it is done by cutting the carpal Ligament with surgery. C TRAC opens the Carpal tunnel without surgery.

Physicians, Chiropractors, Physical and Occupations Therapists occasionally attempt to open the Carpal Tunnel manually. This would work if the force used wore consistent and if the manipulation could be done 3 times a day by the doctor. We all understand this is unrealistic.

C TRAC was designed as a way of providing those same daily Carpal Ligament stretches and manipulations at home with excellent and consistent results. Thousands of patients have been able to stay away  from surgery by using C TRAC. Most patients obtain 70-80% relief in the first 2 weeks of use of C TRAC without the risks of surgery.




 


Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Symptoms

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome presents with Pain, Tingling, Numbness in the hands and fingers. Constant annoying waking up at night, usually worse in the morning. The symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome make Activities of Daily Living much more difficult and can prevent you from getting work done.

CTRAC is not disposable, you can use CTRAC over and over again. If some of your symptoms return 9 month later your CTRAC will be there. There was minimal to no recurrence of symptoms 7 months after using C TRAC (read research, read instructions, read maintenace).

Dear Colleague,

C-TRAC was designed to treat Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. We realized Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a mechanical problem in which the Carpal Tunnel is narrowed and produces pressure on the median nerve. This device applies traction to the Carpal Ligament, elongating the ligament, and increasing the area of the tunnel. Daily traction and ligament stretching for 4-6 weeks, helped alleviate symptoms oc CTS as shown on research studies. We have had amazing results with the several thousands who have used C-TRAC and we would like to extend the reach of our successful treatment to your patients.
 

There are approximately 1 million new diagnosed patients with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in the United States every year and about 330,000 carpal tunnel release surgeries done yearly. Unfortunately, patients and many physicians believe Carpal Tunnel Syndrome patients will inevitably end up having surgery since conservative therapy often fails. The number of Physical or Occupational Therapy sessions are often limtied by insurance companies. But, as reasearch has shown, there is no specific consensus as to when in the course of the condition a patient should have surgery. Carpal Tunnel Release Surgery has been performed since the 1930s and has been known to fail on a high percentage of patients. After having the surgery, the options are very limited and a high percentage of patients end up having to change their lifestyle in order to manage the hand pain, tingling and numbness even after surgery.


C-TRAC has consistenly reduced the symptoms in patients with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome as shown in clinical trials. The abstract can be read in www.Pubmed.com

More physicians are recommeding C TRAC for their patients because it is simple and easy to use. It has been clinically tested, it is extremely effective, inexpensive, and is used at home for 5 minutes 3 times a day for 4-6 weeks.
