Michele, these thumb exercieses are just what I needed after recently getting off my cast and brace from a broken wrist bone! My thumb was unable to reach two of my outer fingers or across my palm, and now after doing your exercises I am much looser! Your teaching approach is so compassionate and well informed, you are a blessing to us all! Thanks for the years of study you did to be able to help us, and for all the hours you worked on your videos!

Hi, i really want to thank you so much for these videos. I am 56 ears old, a guitar player from the age of 10. Iver the;as while I have been distressed by pain in my left hand, this has been preventing me practicing or playing. Playing music is been an essential part of my life since I began. Using your exercises has turned the corner and given me new hope to be able to enjoy playing again. So thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you do.

Thanks Michelle. I had surgery with pins in pinky finger. After the pins & cast removed, it’s affected my entire hand. My pinky is still swollen. I think the cast was too tight. I appreciate you charing your expertise. I’m wearing a simple wrist thumb support during the day. It’s helping my wrist & thumb. I’m following all your exercises. Thanks for your help!

Hi Michelle thank you for teaching this exercise it really works. My right thumb joint hurt so bad for a month now as I did a lot of paint by numbers for 3 months of lockdown here in NSW due to repetitive motion holding small paint brushes for too long. I can’t use my right thumb even just pressing a remote control of tv. My thumb is getting better now. I’m doing this exercise daily and I love your comforting voice too. Thanks so much
