55. My Journey Overcoming Carpal Tunnel Syndrome w/ Yoga Therapy and Ergonomics

In this episode of The Aligned Hygienist podcast, I open up about my personal battle with carpal tunnel syndrome—a journey that began while I was working at the front desk of a dental office before becoming a licensed dental hygienist. I share how the pain crept in slowly, how it intensified to the point where it affected everyday tasks like opening jars, and the emotional toll it took on me. But this story isn’t just about pain; it’s about healing.

I dive into the specific yoga therapy practices, strength-building exercises, and ergonomic adjustments that helped me not only avoid surgery but completely recover within just a few weeks. If you’re struggling with similar issues or want to prevent them, this episode is packed with actionable tips and strategies to help you take control of your health and well-being.
