Although the effectiveness of ESWT, splinting and exercise applications in CTS patients is known in the literature, studies on the effectiveness of ozone therapy are limited.

In addition to exercise and splinting, 3 sessions of ozone therapy will be applied once a week to study group.Patients in the control group will receive ESWT once a week for 3 consecutive weeks in addition to exercise and splinting.
