Cubital Tunnel Syndrome - Help Please

[Hardhat]

This is a pretty good guide to give you more info on this syndrome. http://www.medicalmultimediagroup.com/pated/ctd/cubtun/cubtun.htmlI (by my own deductions) believe I have cubital tunnel syndrome in my left arm.  I am of course a practicing LMT, and this causes me great pain and limits the work I can do.  In shcool we were taught specific ways to help out and reduce nerve impingement for sufferers of carpal tunnel, but cubital tunnel syndrome was never mentioned. Would anyone have any information on this syndrome they could share with me.  Whether you have had similar experiences, had a client with this issue, or have learned of any specific treatments for this issue.  Thank you.  I really appreciate the wealth of knowledge I have found on this board. ~S
