Magnetotherapy for carpal tunnel syndrome
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether magnetotherapy (using magnetic fields) can reduce pain and improve hand function in people with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. If you qualify, you may receive this non-invasive treatment as an alternative to more invasive options.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have carpal tunnel syndrome diagnosed by a doctor, based on symptoms like tingling in your fingers.
- Your condition is mild to moderate (not severe), confirmed by a nerve test (EMG).
- You have not had surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome.
- You do not have other conditions that could cause similar symptoms, like diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis.

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether low-level laser therapy can reduce pain and tingling from mild-to-moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. It may be an option for people who have not had surgery or recent injections.
This study tests two types of hand therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome: shockwave therapy (5 sessions) or warm paraffin wax (10 sessions). It compares which one better reduces nerve thickening and your symptoms.
This study tests a new, non-invasive treatment called repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) for carpal tunnel syndrome. It's painless and uses magnetic pulses to help reduce pain and tingling, and may improve hand function.
This study tests whether a non-invasive magnetic therapy applied to the skin can reduce chronic pain from tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, or carpal tunnel syndrome. The treatment uses magnetic pulses to stimulate nerves and may help relieve pain without medication or surgery.
This trial tests if paraffin wax baths and peloidotherapy (mud therapy) help reduce symptoms of mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome (a hand nerve condition). It may be a good fit if you haven't had prior wrist surgery, steroid injections, or other nerve problems.
This trial tests a non-invasive therapy called photobiomodulation, which uses low-level light to reduce pain and help the nerve in your wrist recover. It could be an option for people with mild-to-moderate carpal tunnel syndrome who want to avoid surgery.
