This clinical trial was performed in accordance with ethical standards on human experimentation and with the Helsinki Declaration of 1975. Results: The group that received FM showed a significant reduction (p < 0.001) in subjective pain perception and an increased function assessed by BCTQ at the end of the treatment and at follow-up. The group that received LLLT showed an improvement in the BCTQ at the end of the treatment but the improvement level was not sustained at the three month follow-up. Conclusion: Fascial Manipulation is a valid alternative treatment for CTS. The method is effective and non-invasive. It gives excellent results for the relief of local symptoms and for restoring functionality with benefits persisting at a three month follow-up. References: [1] Thurston, A., October 2013.
