Benefits: Increases flexibility in the wrist. Counteracts problems caused by repetitive hand movements, particularly computer work.
METHOD: Sit comfortably in a straight backed chair. Extend your left arm in front of you with fingers pointed down and palm facing your body. With your right hand, grasp your fingers on the back of the left hand at the knuckles. Use your right hand to gently pull your left hand down toward your body. Hold for 20 -30 seconds as you slowly inhale and exhale. Repeat on the other side. Do 3 to 5 repetitions on each side.
Tip: This is a great stretch for office workers and for people involved in racquet sports.
