Basic Hand Exercises 
These exercises should be done gently and without force. 

​They are designed to help you keep your joints as supple as possible and to help the structures in your hand glide alongside one another.

Do them at least 5 times each, every hour, increasing the number as you improve.


Work with your elbow resting on a table and your hand up. Start with your fingers and wrist straight each time.
