Sports Massage Therapy & PNF Stretching Techniques for the Wrist & Elbow

Video Transcript

"Hi! On behalf of expertvillage.com, my name is Jean Hurley from Siegels Day Spa in Cottonwood, Arizona, and we’re here today to show you some techniques for sports massage. We’re going to asset the wrists and the elbow right now, see if there’s any pain or injury there that we need to work on. Simple rotation of the wrist to flex on. I’m going to have you hold your fingers out straight while I’m applying slight pressure. You feel any pain tearing? Alright. I’m going to come in and go this way. Any pain? Very good. Staying in the flex mode, so flexing towards the rib, I’m going to rotate your hand for the elbow. What I want you to do with this is push against my arm and relax. Did you feel anything out of the ordinary? And this way. I’m going to push down against my hand. I’m just holding the points of attachment so that I can feel if anything is trying to pull away or engage itself in an abnormal manner. Everything feels good to me. Relax your hand and give it your own little rest and relax. "
