How to do it

Follow the steps in order. Move in a comfortable range unless your provider said otherwise.

  1. Start with the arm at your side, elbow bent, wrist neutral.
  2. Slowly extend the elbow and wrist while opening the fingers, then return.
  3. Keep sensations mild; stop if numbness sharply increases.
