Wrist pain can be caused by things like tight muscles, overworked muscles, or an injury. Here are 3 of my favorite wrist stretches to help relieve pain in the wrist and elbow area. Buy a worksheet with these wrist stretches at https://www.askdoctorjo.com/3-wrist-stretches-worksheet
Stretching the wrist extensors and the wrist flexors is a great way to loosen up the wrist, and they are also great for the elbow, especially with issues like tennis or golfer’s elbow.
Ending with a prayer stretch is a great way to save time and stretch both wrists together. This is also a great stretch for carpal tunnel syndrome.
