Why it helps
Typing and phone use keep your hands in the same position for hours. A short stretch can feel good and break the pattern.
How to do it
- Extend one arm, palm up, and gently pull the fingers down with the other hand.
- Hold 15 seconds, then flip palm down and press the back of the hand.
- Switch arms and shake both hands loosely.
Make it easier
Just open and close your fists ten times.
Make it harder
Add slow wrist circles in both directions.
Stop if you feel tingling or pain.
