In tinel test, and Flick Sign, there were no significant changes (p value>0.05). About 47.8 % of cases cured completely and other changes (p value > 0.05). Changed so much but there were no significant changes in CTS grades in Chi square test, it may be due to the patients’ low count. 74.99% of patients were satisfied or highly satisfied with the therapy.
