Has anyone done hand/forearm therapy?

on: October 12, 2018, 10:27:22 PM

Therapy being something like a chiropractor would do.

I was looking for the thumb cracking info/youtube video I posted before. I still can't quite crack my thumbs easily.

Or at all.

I ran across this video (haven't watched it) and some others about hand things a chiropractor might do.

I don't have carpal tunnel. I just saw the video and thought it looked interesting for "maintenance" of some kind.

Sounds like stretching and massage are worthwhile.

No surprises. Focusing attention on it improves it. I've noticed similar things for running. For lifting weights. I notice my forearms and hands seemed a little tighter.

It's definitely weird having one hand a lot more looser than the other. *Bob gets weired out.*
