Hand Massages

Hand Massages 

Thumb-Palm Massage:

Have your hands ever felt tight? Ever woke up and not be able to clench your fist? Well try these massages to loosen them up and have a great feel in your hands.

Start by putting one hand under-neath the other and gently press into your palms (wherever you might feel tightness). Move your thumb deep into your hands and gently roll/move it around in a circular motion. This will help release all the knots and tightness that have built up in your hand while you were resting. It's best to do this first thing in the morning and right before you go to bed.

Thumb-Finger Massage:

If you have trouble bending your fingers or you feel a mild discomfort when trying to close your first, you should try out this massage that will help flexing your fingers and hopefully remove the pain.

Start by grabbing a finger with the other hand's thumb and index finger. Apply pressure by squeezing the thumb and index finger and gently rub the fingers together for about 10 seconds. Do this to the bottom of the finger (as shown in the picture), the middle of the finger and the tip of the finger where the nail is. Continue to do this to each finger and move on to the next hand.

Finger-Rock Massage:

To finish off massage our hands, it's great to make our fingers feel loose and free. 

Do this by grabbing each finger and start gently moving it around back and fourth and side to side. Move it freely for about 10-15 seconds each finger and end off with gently pulling on the finger for about 2-3 seconds. It's okay to hear cracking and it's fine if your fingers start bending, don't try to keep the finger straight when moving it around as it could cause damages and pain to your fingers.
