I'm hoping to reconstruct the great list of suggestions, tips and helps we had before.
All the old basic stuff and any new things you can add. If you found a good product or tool tell about it & maybe add a link that shows it. ************************************************ For self triggerpoint work - there are many tools out there, I used the pressure pointer and tennis balls. They have a nice chart for upperbody sx & TrPs. link- http://www.pressurepointer.com/ Acupressure for RSI - http://altmedicine.about.com/library...ressure+points Get rid of the heavy shoulder bag or purse - use lots of pockets, fanny pack or a backsaver type of small backpack/purse. from - http://orthoinfo.aaos.org/fact/thr_r...topcategory=Ar [Ulnar nerve pain- * Avoid frequent use of the arm with the elbow bent. If you use a computer frequently, make sure that your chair is not too low. Do not rest the elbow on the armrest. * Avoid leaning on the elbow or putting pressure on the inside of the arm. For example, do not drive with the arm resting on the open window. * Keep the elbow straight at night when you are sleeping. This can be done by wrapping a towel around the straight elbow, wearing an elbow pad backwards, or using a special brace.] To see what kind of products & tools are out there- some have info and articles too. main home page links http://optp.com/ http://www.promedproducts.com/ http://www.therapyzone.com/ http://www.ptproductsonline.com/ |
