Essential Arm Stretch for Relieving Repetitive Stress

Essential Arm Stretch for Relieving Repetitive Stress

2006, Amy Mosley Photography, licensed to About.com, Inc.
Stretch your upper arm, elbow, forearm and wrist in one easy motion.
  • Place the palms of your hands flat together in front of your chest.
  • Flex the wrists at a 90-degree angle.
  • Keeping the palms together, move them up until your elbows touch.
  • Return your hands to their original position.
  • Repeat a few times.

This stretch will loosen most of the arm and provide another good wrist and shoulder stretch.
