Wrist Stretching Exercises
for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Gentle wrist flexion and extension stretching combined with tendon gliding exercises helps maintain wrist mobility and may reduce synovial swelling in mild CTS.
How it works
Tendon gliding exercises actively move finger flexor tendons through the carpal tunnel, reducing tendon and synovial adhesions that contribute to tunnel pressure. Improves carpal tunnel fluid dynamics.
What to watch for
Should be gentle — forceful stretching can increase carpal tunnel pressure. Best performed multiple times daily in short sessions. Most effective as an adjunct to splinting and nerve gliding.
