Try the following tendon gliding exercises to help decrease the pain and tingling associated with carpal tunnel syndrome. You can also use the exercises to help prevent future problems with carpal tunnel syndrome and promote optimal mobility.

Start with your hand opened up, like you are telling someone to stop. After each subsequent position, return to this open hand position for two to three seconds.

Repeat this series of tendon glides five to 10 times, two to three times per day to help relieve symptoms and prevent future problems with carpal tunnel syndrome. By keeping your tendons gliding properly, you can be sure to keep your hand and wrists moving the best they can.
