One way of
preventing injuries is to do simple stretching.
One method that is encouraged here is to extend
your right arm out in front of you with your
palm facing out and your fingers pointing
upwards. Do this once you are sited comfortably.
Then put the palm of your left hand on the
fingers of your right hand. Slowly pull inwards
with your left hand as you press the heel of
your right hand outwards. Keep to this position
for not more than ten seconds and then release.
Continue this step by extending your left arm
out. Try not to over stretch. Another advisable
exercise to release uneasiness is hand massage.
Use your thumb to press all over your palm.
Press in especially at sore areas. Repeat this
step by pressing your other palm. This method is
good to ease tension and the more massages your
hands received, it will be less prone to
injuries.
