Whether it’s from typing all day, lifting, gardening, or just the wear and tear of everyday life, sore wrists are something many of us deal with. That dull ache or tight feeling can really get in the way – and while rest is important, a gentle massage can help. Anti-Flamme is easy to apply, and when massaged in slowly and mindfully, it can help you feel more comfortable and supported.
Why the wrists?
Wrists may be small, but they play a big role in almost everything we do. With their intricate network of joints, tendons, and muscles, they’re constantly in motion especially during repetitive tasks. Giving them a little attention can make a big difference in how they feel and function..
A Simple Step-by-Step for an at-home Wrist Massage
Here’s a gentle way to use Anti-Flamme to massage sore wrists. You don’t need any fancy tools – just clean hands and a quiet moment.
1. Start with clean hands and a relaxed posture. Sit somewhere comfortable and rest your arm on a cushion or your lap. Make sure your wrist is supported and relaxed.
2. Apply a small amount of Anti-Flamme. You only need a little – about the size of a pea. Rub it between your fingers to warm it slightly before applying.
3. Begin with light movements. Using your opposite hand, gently glide from the base of your palm up toward your forearm. Keep the pressure light to start, just enough to spread the cream.
4. Focus on the wrist joint. Use your thumb to make small, slow circles around the wrist bone. If you find a tender spot, pause there and breathe deeply as you gently work around it.
5. Massage the tendons. With your fingers, trace along the tendons that run from your wrist into your hand and forearm. These can get tight, especially with typing or gripping.
A few tips:
- Try this in the evening before bed, or after a long day of activity.
- If your wrists are sore regularly, consider taking short breaks during repetitive tasks.
- Always listen to your body – if something doesn’t feel right, ease off.
