Chiropractic Care for Wrist Pain in Woodbridge, VA
Bring Comfort Back to the Hands That Do Your Work
Your wrists work hard all day, whether you type, lift, text, or work with tools. When they begin to ache or feel weak, even small tasks become frustrating. Palmercare Chiropractic Woodbridge offers gentle care to help.
We look at the wrist along with the elbow, shoulder, and neck, since problems higher in the arm can show up in the hands.
Understanding Chiropractic Care for Wrist Pain
The wrist contains many small bones and joints that move in several directions. Repetitive tasks, awkward positions, and old injuries can leave these joints stiff and the surrounding tissue irritated.
Dr. Eric Meyer and Dr. Todd Redfearn evaluate wrist motion, grip, and the upper extremity chain, and they refer when a fracture or other issue is suspected.
Wrist pain often shows up as:
- Aching during or after typing
- Pain when gripping
- Stiffness in the morning
- Weakness when lifting
- Clicking or catching
- Discomfort after a fall or injury
Your plan is built around what we find in your exam.

What Our Woodbridge Patients Say
HAVE A QUESTION
Frequently Asked Questions
What causes wrist pain?
Overuse, sprains, arthritis, nerve irritation, and injuries are common causes.
Can chiropractic help?
It may help when joint restriction or related strain contributes. Results vary.
Is it carpal tunnel?
Maybe. Numbness and tingling in the thumb, index, and middle fingers can point there. An exam helps tell.
What is ArthroStim therapy?
A handheld instrument that delivers a gentle, precise adjustment, often comfortable for small joints.
Should I wear a brace?
Sometimes a brace helps temporarily. We advise what suits your situation.
Do I need an X-ray?
Only if the exam suggests it, such as after a fall.
Can my desk setup cause wrist pain?
Yes. Keyboard height and wrist angle matter, and small changes can help.
When should I see a doctor?
Seek care after a significant injury, if the wrist looks deformed, or if swelling is severe.
How long will it take?
It varies, and we reassess regularly.
