The forearm muscles make all hand and finger movement possible.
Sore forearms can come from any number of sports and occupational activities; virtually any movement done often enough can cause repetitive strain that’s felt in the forearm muscles.
Holding the hands in a static position for long periods of time can also cause strain. Two common examples would be typing on a computer keyboard with your hands slightly angled in this position. Or someone who holds their hands for long periods of time in one position and perform micro-movements with instruments such as dentists and hygienists.
Most forearm pain can be found in the top portion of the arm, the extensor area.
Begin to explore this top portion of the arm while using the two therapy methods shown in the therapy video segment; the circulatory and trigger point massage techniques.
These therapies allow oxygen and nutrients to flow into the muscle tissue while you flush away lactic acid and other metabolic waste products. Your muscles begin to regain their full range of motion and your natural levels of strength will return.
