How it works
Reduces trigger point activity in forearm flexors and extensors. Stimulates endogenous opioid and serotonin release. May modulate central sensitisation contributing to chronic upper limb pain.
Evidence specific to RSI (as a broad diagnostic category) is limited. Better evidence for specific diagnoses within RSI (lateral epicondylalgia, carpal tunnel). Best as an adjunct to ergonomic modification and exercise.
