Save Your Hands & Wrists

Hours at the computer, texting, gaming, not to mention a long list of activities that require fine motor skills, absolutely contracts the muscles that go through your forearm down into your hands and fingers.

Keeping these muscles working correctly is essential for avoiding carpal tunnel issues and other hand and wrist problems associated with overuse.
