Best Stretches for Your Painful Hands

New Arrivals

When your hands are stiff, sore, or achy, life’s simplest tasks feel daunting. Whether it’s caused by age, work, too much time on your phone, or all of the above, it’s important to maintain healthy dexterity and flexibility in your hands and wrists. Try these 3 stretches!

Place your hands palm-side down on a flat surface and raise each finger as high as possible. Start out sequentially, then try it out of order. Play around with picking up speed, then try to hold each finger airborne just a little bit longer. 

Grab hold of anything infinitely squeezable (stress ball or tennis ball, for example) and give it a squeeze. You want to build variable strength, so try squeezing in consistent pulses as well as squeezing and holding for longer periods of time. 

Keeping your wrists flexible is an overlooked aspect of maintaining dexterity. For a great stretch, start with your hands in prayer in front of you and keep them together while moving them up and down, parallel to your torso.
