You'd likely benefit from hitting up your LBS and getting a proper fit done. Hand numbness can be attributed to many things, and without seeing your position on the bike while riding, it's difficult to tell what the solution will be.
Could need to raise or lower the bars, might need a different length stem in conjunction with moving the height, saddle position may be a factor.
