We use our hands for almost everything we do throughout the day, from checking email to chopping vegetables for dinner. On top of this, if your work requires you to use your hands in repetitive motions, then the muscles and joints of the hands, wrists and forearms are particularly at risk for inflammation.

Practicing this therapeutic sequence of exercises increases strength and flexibility in the small muscles of the hands and fingers, where over 25% of our body’s bones are located, helping reduce inflammation, removing built-up stress and increasing range of motion.

Lovely. Grateful. Thank YOU! Recently broke bones in a hand; seeing many of the exercises assigned by occupational therapist are quite similar.

Thanks, I sure can use this exercise because I massage a lot of necks and shoulders.
