RAYNAUD’S SYNDROME in Cyprus | COLD HANDS | Bad Circulation | Carpal Tunnel Syndrome | CYPRUS CLINIC | OSTEOPATHY | ACUPUNCTURE | LIMASSOL | PAPHOS

A 66 year old patient presented to the clinic with a history of chronic Raynaud’s Syndrome and Scleroderma. Symptoms were predominately of pain and cold extremities.

On examination, X-rays indicated advanced degenerative spondylolitic (arthritic) changes of the cervical spine, loss of disc height and some compression of the central spinal canal.

On osteopathic examination, the spinal areas of the cervico-thoracic region were fixated and hypertrophic. The muscles around the scapulo-thoracic region were fibrotic.

Treatment consisted of Osteopathic mobilisation of the spine to aid in promoting movement, releasing nerve compression (neuritis), loosening the muscles, increasing blood flow to the muscles.

Osteopathic manipulation of the cervico-thoracic region of the spine helped to reduce pain in the arms and hands and reduce the feeling of cold in the hands.
