Thumb Massage
Happy Holidays! This month’s WOW will focus on massaging and stretching the muscles of your hand. Typing, texting, and other hand related work can make your forearms and fingers sore. Massage and stretching can help alleviate this pain so you can feel your best.
The more you can stretch out your hands, the quicker you can unwrap presents!
Exercise: Thumb massage.
How to perform: With your right palm facing up, press your left thumb into your right thumb. You might feel some pain and tightness where your right thumb connects to your right forearm. Gently massage and rotate your right thumb clockwise/counterclockwise to loosen up this area.
Duration: Repeat for 30 seconds on the right side and switch to left.
