For those living with numbness, tingling, night pain, or hand weakness from carpal tunnel syndrome, the idea of traditional open surgery can feel daunting. Concerns about a larger incision, longer downtime, and delayed return to work or hobbies often lead people to delay care. But what if you could get lasting relief with a precise, minimally invasive approach?
At Vero Orthopaedics, we’re committed to offering advanced, evidence-based options that get you back to comfortable hand function sooner. We’re excited to highlight the transformative potential of ultrasound-guided carpal tunnel release (Sonex technique)—a modern approach designed to relieve pressure on the median nerve through a tiny incision, under real-time ultrasound guidance.
To explore this option, we’re hosting a free seminar, “Relief From Carpal Tunnel: The Sonex Ultrasound-Guided Approach,” led by Paul D. Paterson, M.D., a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon specialising in hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder care.
What You’ll Learn at the Seminar
- How it works: See how real-time ultrasound lets your surgeon visualise critical structures and release the transverse carpal ligament through a minimal incision.
- Why it matters: Understand potential benefits like less tissue disruption, faster recovery, and rapid return to daily activities compared with traditional open surgery.
- Am I a candidate? Get your questions answered live by Dr Paterson and learn whether an ultrasound-guided release could be right for your symptoms and lifestyle.
Limited Seating. RSVP at curemycarpaltunnel.com/vero or Call (888) 681-0221
Join us on Thursday, October 30, at 6:00 p.m. at the Vero Orthopaedics Main Office, 3955 Indian River Boulevard, Vero Beach, FL 32960.
What Is Ultrasound-Guided Carpal Tunnel Release?
Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve is compressed within the narrow carpal tunnel at the wrist, causing numbness, tingling, night pain, and reduced grip or dexterity. The ultrasound-guided Sonex technique uses a small, targeted incision and specialized instruments to release the transverse carpal ligament while the surgeon watches the nerve, tendons, and vessels in real time on ultrasound—enhancing precision and protecting nearby structures.
Who May Benefit?
Patients with persistent carpal tunnel symptoms—especially nighttime numbness/tingling, hand weakness, dropping objects, or pain that hasn’t improved with bracing, activity changes, or injections—may be candidates for this minimally invasive approach. Dr. Paterson will discuss evaluation, diagnostic testing, and how candidacy is determined.
Potential Advantages of the Sonex Ultrasound-Guided Technique
- Minimal Incision, Minimal Disruption: Small entry point designed to reduce tissue trauma.
- Real-Time Visualization: Ultrasound guidance to help protect nerves, tendons, and vessels.
- Faster Recovery: Many patients experience a quicker return to light use and daily activities.
- Less Post-Procedure Discomfort: Reduced soft-tissue disruption may mean less soreness.
- Streamlined Experience: Outpatient procedure with efficient care coordination.
Individual recovery timelines and outcomes vary. Dr. Paterson will review risks, benefits, and alternatives to help you decide what’s best for you.
Why You Should Attend
If carpal tunnel symptoms are interrupting your sleep, work, or active lifestyle, this free seminar is an invaluable opportunity. Paul D. Paterson, M.D. will explain how the Sonex ultrasound-guided technique compares with traditional approaches, who makes a good candidate, and what to expect before, during, and after the procedure. You’ll also have the chance to ask questions during a comprehensive Q&A.
Don’t let carpal tunnel hold you back. Reserve your spot to learn about a precise, minimally invasive path to lasting relief. RSVP at curemycarpaltunnel.com/vero or Call (888) 681-0221. Seating is limited.
