Stretching Exercises to Help Prevent Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Prayer stretch

Start with your palms together in front of your chest just below your chin.
Slowly lower your hands toward your waistline, keeping your hands close to your stomach and your palms together, until you feel a mild to moderate stretch under your forearms.
Hold for at least 15 to 30 seconds. Repeat 2 to 4 times.
