BEST 5 Thumb Exercises for THUMB STIFFNESS

[@6189-d4w]

Michele, these thumb exercieses are just what I needed after recently getting off my cast and brace from a broken wrist bone! My thumb was unable to reach two of my outer fingers or across my palm, and now after doing your exercises I am much looser! Your teaching approach is so compassionate and well informed, you are a blessing to us all! Thanks for the years of study you did to be able to help us, and for all the hours you worked on your videos!

[@VirtualHandCare]

Thank you for the kind words! I’m so glad the exercises helped your thumb. 👍👍

[@carolbiehler9670]

I had CMC surgery with mini tightrope procedure on my right thumb 5 weeks ago. I am so grateful that I found your thumb exercise video. I have an appointment for thumb therapy on Wednesday. I will do the exercise that you showed in your video to get my flexabilty and strength back in my thumb.

Hi dear Michelle I have developed trigger thumb about 3 weeks ago. I was worried and was looking for remedy. Luckily I have found your video and straight away I started doing the exercise. Thanks a million for this wonderful effort.

[@Moosie3]

Excellent job ! Really liked the fact I could do these exercises along with you. 9 weeks post wrist fracture. Thumb is still stiff.

[@benwissett]

I badly sprained my thumb a week ago and this is the first proper progress I've made in getting my range of motion back. Thank you!

[@shylajas8861]

Thank you so much ma'am, I was suffering from pain in middle of my thumb, after following the exercises I got so much of relief. Thank you once again

[@leotunstall2675]

Thank you so much, I felt some deep stretches. Thumb has been stiff and sore for a month until just now! Keep up the awesome videos and knowledge!

Hi Michele, I broke my wrist 2 years ago and after my cast came off, they discovered that the tendon from my wrist to my thumb had detached. I had surgery that took a tendon from my index finger and repaired the one in my thumb. I did therapy after the surgery and regained some range of motion, however, I am unable to move my thumb back towards my wrist very far as the knuckle joint closest to the wrist does not bend back. I discovered your videos a few days ago and your exercises have already helped me gain more strength and range of motion in my thumb and entire hand. Thank you.

[@mayborja1853]

Hi Michelle thank you for teaching this exercise it really works. My right thumb joint hurt so bad for a month now as I did a lot of paint by numbers for 3 months of lockdown here in NSW due to repetitive motion holding small paint brushes for too long. I can’t use my right thumb even just pressing a remote control of tv. My thumb is getting better now. I’m doing this exercise daily and I love your comforting voice too. Thanks so much

[@anineffendi1400]

I am having a problem with my triggered fingers especially the thumb and finding your video is such a blessing for me, this is the most make sense and easiest hand exercises that i need to try to relieve my thumb stiffness, hope it would really work for me and others who has the same problem.

Hello Michele, I broke my wrist 8 weeks ago. The cast was removed one week ago and luckily, i came across your videos and I thank the universe every day that i did. Your teaching is just amazing and so helpful. My wrist and hand movement is improving by the day. Best wishes and greetings from English ❤

I broke my wrist on July 2023 and after a 2 wks of therapy and a CT scan I was told to stop therapy n use brace. I just had my second surgery on which all hardware (8 screws n plate) were removed. Thank God! I'm now scheduled for therapy next wk, but I'm lucky to have come across your videos. I've been working my fingers since first surgery. I know I have a long way to go because my fingers are still stiff, but I'm getting close to making a fist. It's very hard getting my thumb across because my tendons are still tight, n my palm very tender. Greatly apprec your videos!

[@ellapresley8634]

Michelle, thank you. I started having a problem with my right thumb. Right in the joint where the thumb folds down, it wouldn't bend down, and it was very painful. When I found your website, I started following the exercises for my thumb, and it is SO much better, THANK YOU!!

[@priyajessy]

How's your thumb now...mine doesn't bend and pains alot...it's been a yr

I am currently doing this exercise, and I am on exercise number for an even after number one I already feel so much better. My thumb became stiff out of nowhere and made me a bit afraid because I was concerned about injury. Again I am on exercise number for and I already feel such a huge difference! Thank you!

[@PatriciaJPhillips-lx1jv]

Me too, did you find out what's causing the stiffness?

[@ihartmichaeljackson1]

@@PatriciaJPhillips-lx1jv believe it or not but I didn’t and I haven’t had any cramping sinceI do type a lot at work so I wasn’t sure if it was related to that or not.

[@joniwooten9097]

I just found your site. So thankful. Had surgery on one hand ( need same on left hand) last yr where a bone was removed from behind the thumb , a hole drilled and tendon from forearm pulled through hole. Left is getting so bad but I can’t go through another surgery! So I pray that exercise will prevent it. Thank you !

Thank you! Best thumb physio video on YT. One thing I did not see covered is a stretch back towards the wrist. Would be good to see a 6th exercise for that. I have pain and stiffness when i gently guide my thumb back towards my wrist with my other hand. I think I have tendonitis as a result of a military press exercise I did.

Thank you for this video! I am currently in OT for therapy after having an ulnar collateral ligament repair March 23, 2023. During my immobilization, my wrist and other 4 fingers became super stiff and painful. During OT, they have been stretching to extreme pain my thumb and wrist to flexion as a way to improve flexion but I disagree. Your exercises leave me sore but not all day pain.
