Fascinating how we hold tension in the simplest of movements. I was having a problem at the gym last year, I was struggling to curl enough to challenge myself without hand pain. My friend, Steve who owns the gym simply asked me how tightly I was holding the dumbbell. Turned out I was gripping it far far too hard! I had no awareness of it until someone mentioned the idea!
I have found all your videos so helpful in managing tension. These wrist ones are just what I needed to help alleviate arthritic fingers. I had no idea that it all starts with my wrists. Thank you.
RSI of hands and upper arms can also be a pinched nerve in the back nerve the scapula. Try forcefully lowering your shoulders and also stretching your elbows back behind as when waking up. This may clear the RSI of hands instantly, with the nerve signal unblocked in this way. I had massage for months which reduced it very temporarily but the RSI comes back in half a day. To solve permanently I do the above two stretches a few times each day and never had hand RSI since. During the stretch you almost feel like a river being released through the harms - amazing feeling.
