Cold, dry, raw, or processed foods. Excess tea, coffee, carbonated drinks. Fasting, sleeplessness, or exposure to cold wind.
✅Lifestyle & Exercises
Gentle hand yoga: wrist rotations, finger stretches, and prayer pose (Namaste) hold for 10–15 seconds. Warm water hand soaks with Epsom salt or Dashamoola decoction for 10 minutes daily. Maintain proper posture while working; take small breaks from repetitive hand motions. Ensure 7–8 hours of restful sleep to allow nervous regeneration
With consistent Ayurvedic care, pain, numbness, and weakness can gradually reduce without surgery, and your energy levels can improve naturally.

HELLO,
Capel tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve in yourwirst gets compressed In Ayurveda,this is described as a vata vyadhi- a disease caused by disturbed vata dosha (the energy governing movement, nerve function, and circulation)
When vata becomes aggravated- due to factors like stress, overuse, cold exposure, lack of oil in diet/body, or poor digestion- it causes -dryness and weakness In snayu (nerves, tendons) and mamsa (muscles) -tingling , numbness, pain and stiffness -in chronic cases vata spread to other areas like calves and feet -over time, it can lead to fatigue, disturbed sleep, and mental dullness
Son, your CTS and muscle pain are not separate issues - they are part of a systemic vata aggravation that needs to be pacified from within and without
TREATMENT GOALS -pacify aggravated vata dosha -remove blockage and toxins from channels -nourish and strengthen nerves and muscles -improve circulation and tissue healing -restore normal function and energy levels
Ayurveda doesn’t only focus on suppressing pain- it aims to rebuild nerve strength and muscle tone naturally
