Practical Exercises to relieve Carpal Tunnel

While standing, put both hands, palms facing down, on the top of a desk or table with fingers facing in toward each other. Push down gently, and slowly let your wrists stretch backward. At first, your wrists will probably only extend a little less than 90 degrees. As you get more flexible, try deepening the stretch by moving your arms farther apart.

repetitive motion

Those whose job involves performing assembly line work are more at risk of getting Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
A study shows that people whose work inculdes repetitive motion, such as grasping tools, scanning groceries, and typing, resulted in the longest absences from work among the leading events and exposures in 2002—a median of 23 days.

hand excercises

I think these quick hand excercises are very useful and they help prevent carpal tunnel syndrome.
1. PULL THE FINGERS on your dominant hand (where the effects of CTS are more likely to be severe) back and away from your palm. Relax your wrist and let it follow your fingers. Hold for five seconds and then repeat with the other hand.
2. GENTLY PULL YOUR THUMB toward your chest and down, hold the stretch for another five seconds, and repeat on the opposite hand.
