How to give yourself a hand massage



Our hands are some of the most overworked parts of our bodies. A hand massage is a great way to relieve some of the tension built up from keyboarding all day at work.









1


Squeeze between each finger with the thumb and index finger of your other hand. This releases tension and increases circulation.





2


Stretch your fingers by interlocking them, palms facing up, and pulling them gently downward. Don't try to crack your fingers with this motion, just stretch the tendons in your hands.





3


Make a rolling movement on each finger with the fingers and thumbs of your opposite hand. Work from the knuckle to the fingertip.





4


Make a circling motion on your palm with the thumb of your opposite hand. Be sure to press deeply into the palm. Pressing too lightly will tickle.
