Thread Release Procedure
Relief Without Incisions. Recovery Without Delay.
Thread release is a cutting-edge, ultra-minimally invasive procedure designed to relieve pain caused by carpal tunnel syndrome, trigger finger, and peripheral nerve entrapment. Developed by BayCare Clinic physicians Dr. Danqing Guo and Dr. Danzhu Guo, this technique, known as the Guo Technique, offers highly effective outcomes with minimal downtime.
Benefits of Thread Release:
- No scalpel, no surgical incisions
- Performed in-office with local anesthetic
- Minimal pain and rehabilitation
- Most patients return to normal activities within 1–2 days*
Using ultrasound guidance, thin needles deliver a smooth thread that loops around the targeted ligament or fascia. The thread is gently manipulated to release the tissue causing pain. The procedure typically takes less than 15 minutes.
