I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis about three years ago. My pains are very much concentrated on my fingers and entire arms. Most of the time I rely on pain medication which rarely takes my pain away. This morning i was desperately looking for pain relief for my painful fingers when i saw your video. I watched and exercised following your techniques and was able to feel relieved for the first time. I will be following you thank you very much.
Hello I also have the same disease...it gets worse in the morning..I was diagnosed at the age of 18.. how do you cope with this illness? And what meds you are on?
Good exercises to get them moving. But the best way is first or overnight to wear a 100% wool or other natural fiber like mohair, alpaca or angora, hand or wrist warmer, glove or mitt. This will warm up your hands and increase circulation to alleviate pain and increase the capcity for movement. Wool works well as long as it is not superwash or has any synthetic. Mohair is 4 x warmer than wool, alpaca is 6x warmer and angora is 8x warmer than wool . But it must be 100% with no synthetic or nylon. If you have difficulty wearing wool make sure it is merino under 21 microns. Angora is the best because it has amazing thermal properties that increase circulation and is well known for alleviating pain. Thermal means it is hollow and the air in the hollow fiber is what contributes to the warmth. The other natural fibers have insulating capacity meaning air is trapped between the fibers. But angora has both making it the warmest fiber on the planet. It works wonders on arthritis, carpal tunnel and neuropathy . So if you knit and can make your own find some natural or even handspun natural fiber yarn to make them . And don't ever let your fingers get cold .
I have osteathritis in a first beginning stage, so its not developed so bad yet. I have found out a couple of great excersices and tips below that helped me tremendously, especially point 2. has been a miracle excercise for me. 1. soak hands in warm water (not so hot as it burns, but still more hot than lurk warm). Keep them submerged for 3-5 minutes. 2. Now this one I haven't really heard about or read anywhere, but I figure it out myself where I was just massaging my fingers. I was kinda mindblown at the result. So, anyway here it is: Pull and squeeze each finger from the root to tip in such a fashion that can feel the blood being squeezed into the finger. it's important to do this very slowly and gently, do not squeeze too hard or pull to fast/hard (dont wanna tear your joints or anything else apart!!). Also be very careful not to twist the finger, must pull in straight direction and not either left or right but straigth away from the hand. This significantly reduces or even get rid of stiffness and finger joint pain, almost immediately and over time. It also feels incredibly nice for some reason, sometimes I get the goosebumbs on my arms or back as I feel the blood being squeezed into the finger. 3. squeeze a soft rubber ball now and then. This trains the muscles in your hands which will over time help support you joints causing them to wear down slower. Be mindful to not overdo it with repetiveness as this what causes osteoathritis in the first place. 4. Lift weights. But be very careful how you grip the weights as to not twist, turn or otherwise stress the joints fingers incorrectly with the weights. But just like with the rubber ball this will build muscles, also in the hand/fingers. 5. Generally be very mindful on how you handle objects with your fingers. A wrong motion, grip, twist, pull etc may cause further damage to your already vulnerable joints. And sadly some damage can never fully recover if it was too extensive, or you were unlucky. 6. consider using alternatives to mouse and keyboard as the extreme repetitiveness daily for years and decades is a major culprit for osteoathritis. 7. Take daily supplements of fishoil; make sure to use products that are certified free from toxins, as fatty fish almost always contains very poisonous fat-soluble toxins such as dioxin and mercury etc. These toxins can easily be 100% removed through refinement by the producers of the product, but some do not do this properly because it allows them to save a little bit on the process earning them a slightly higher profit. So avoid those products, you may need to do some research. Also I take double the fish oil dosis we use in my country, but your country may have different dosis set, so dont just take double. But personally I do not believe there can be any harm in eating too much fish oil unless you got into some kind of extreme amount. 8. Generally eat healthily, lots of vegetables, no sugar, cut down on fat. Avoid all candy, cakes, chocolate etc. 9. Exercise at least 30 minute moderate intensity every day. And twice per week at least 20 min high intensity. Note that for 2. and 3. there may be hand/finger injuries where these excersises could instead actually cause damage. So you have the full responsibility to take care of yourself. It is impossible for me to guarantee if my information would not work for you or even cause harm. This depends on your specific condition, the way you do it and on the specific kind of condition/injury/athritis your hands has. So make sure to seek professional health advice and care from a authorized specialist first, and let them help and instruct you in the care and treatment for you. That being said these 5 points has completely removed the finger and finger joint pain and stiffness for me. I cant still pain in the joints if I grip and object the wrong way or apply too much pressure to fingers in certain positions, so I have learned the situation and certain ways to use my fingers to not cause stress to worsen the wear down. But apart from that I can use my hand fingers almost normally like anyone else. I also box (on a punchingbag) with boxing gloves on, and have no problems with any pain from that at all as long as I use proper technique.
I have R.A. 15 years, my fingers are so painful. Soaking hands in warm water for about 15 minutes relaxes muscles and relieve pain I was dishes in the morning, kill 2 birds with one stone. Exercising my hands will help. 5hank you.😊
My dad and I both had arthritis in our thumbs from constantly grabbing the mail. He passed in 2011. I wish I had seen this video then. It would have saved us alot of pain. Thank you.
Unfortunately I do not have a video for this since there is a very specific protocol to follow but your hand therapist or doctor should be able to guide you through a protected motion program.
Familyyyyyy , Nonseseseseseseseses, In the womens on earthearh one of younger wife young women young madam on earthh.The girl farhiashappinessflowerTo A familyyyyy.exusemeeeee
I had a fracture on my ring finger last year and I really didn't try to work on it or get therapy as I fell in a chronic depression. I couldn't do tattoos or play guitar due to that and now I finally decided to do therapy so I did your routines for days and it's my first time seeing the PIP joints of two of my fingers actually improve a looooot. Thank you so much for your work! I'll forever be grateful for you 😭🥺
Same. I wish my poor mother could've seen this when she was still here. Bad arthritis in her hands. It's great that you are on UA-cam. In her time this would have required individual instruction at a Drs. office. I filled plastic coke bottles with sand to make exercise dumbbells for her to use while sitting. The weight was perfect for the strength level and the fat grip didn't hurt and actually helped exercise hands too. Cost was zero.
Oh my thank you for this finger exercise session. As a former athlete my hands are stiff in the morning but this will truly help. Thanks again and may God richly bless you and this channel.
Both of my hands hurt from arthritis and fibromyalgia. I'm a righty so that one seems to hurt more often. After doing your exercises once both hands feel looser. While doing the exercises I felt a bit nauseous, but I will keep doing them to try to relieve some pain down the road. Thanks for making videos to try to help people in pain.
Thank You Michelle. I have severe osteoarthritis in my hands and fingers. I utilizes many therapies and have added these exercises to the ones I already have. I have great days and bad ones. But the exercises help the most.
Wow! What a great video. Just started these finger joint excerises yesterday afternoon and again this morning. This afternoon I am already feeling remarkable improvement in flexibility and less pain. Amazing! Thank you. I thumbed up and subscribed. I especially enjoyed your relaxed pace and voice along with full explanations on the proper technique while I follow along. Indeed, well done! 🥰
I’ve had problems with my hands for years - but I’ve just tried these exercises and have been able to do them so I’m going to keep them up. Thank you… 😊
I have really bad arthritis in my hands and saw your video this morning and I tried it. It helped a bit. It is worse in the morning. I was getting steroid needles in my nuckles from a Rhumatologist. My daughter was with me and cringed. I intend to do these several times per day. Thank you so much.
By accident I came across your channel and quickly followed the finger exercises. Lately, I feel more stiffness and joint swelling with more gardening chores. Wow! You are a 13:1713:17 blessing ! I see and feel a significant result even just after one session. 13:17 Now I will follow through regularly. 13:1713:17 Michelle, my heartfelt thanks for your sharing your kindness. You are very calm, soothing and highly skilled in your practice. I pray for your continued succes s.May God bless and guide you always in your life. Remy
I greatly appreciate you, I woke up the past week with joint stiffness and I am not having it lol. I use my hands too much to have the feeling of frozen joints. So far my joints are still hurting but not frozen.
Greetings from France 🥰💞. Just found your video but wasn't what I was looking for. Beading and knitting videos what I wanted🤣🤣. With severe aggressions, broken wrists and fingers, nothing seemed to move freely. Abandoned my piano and guitar😢. Knitting Crochet and Beading give me severe pain in my wrists and fingers. Conclusion Arthritis. I've been moving my fingers in all directions hoping to be able to knit peacefully. Wow😮 when I watched your video and did my exercises along with you, I felt an easiness to bend my deformed fingers. Within 2 minutes I FELT RELIEVED OF À BURDEN, STIFF FINGERS were elastic. My two thumbs were completely broken from finger tip to wrist and these precious exercises have helped me immensely. With tears of joy I say a big THANK YOU for your help and bringing sunshine into my dark heart. 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🤗🤗🤗
Both my hands have arthritis, and having just done your exercises, they do feel a little better, so will practice regular, thankyou, as a fifth exercise I grip a can of beer, amazing results. Cheers
Amazing! Thank you! I will do these before, during and after all the cross stitching I do. These are the best I’ve done, I can literally feel the circulation and warmed hands. Subscribed!! HOPE ❤️
This is wonderful. I need this to help my sore joints. I also have trigger fingers to deal with, so this helps a great deal. Felt good to do these exercises. Thank you. :)
My right hand - the fingers bent and got stuck part way closing. In messing around I realized that if I adjusted my neck - sort of up and back - it released my stuck claw fingers. Works like a charm. Try it. Looking for the root cause is a successful way to go. Also - I was limping and I thought it was planter facia. But I kept watching videos and messing around. I finally realized my hip was the problem. I put my right leg on a chair and then with my arm pushed my hip forward. Works like a charm. Could have been my ankle, my knee, my back - but it was my hip. The foot problem was referral pain. Not the root cause. Just love fixing the root cause. My poor unfortunate friend instead had his fingers operated on. Scar tissue…. Oh Well!!!
I was just diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my hands. I knew things were changing and needed all the help I can get to keep them in the best shape possible. Thank you for this video, my hands feel much better after doing these stretches. You have a new follower today! ❤️
My middle fingers are definitely the worst! Thank you for these exercises I will begin with them 🙏 They say that moringa rheumatoid arthritis like myself. So I bought Moringa powder and I'm going to make my own pills at home and start putting that into my body. People say they have been cured from it
I wasn’t diagnosed with arthritis, but I know that I have arthritis cause when I crochet my hands get sore really quickly so I’m really hoping that these exercises will help. Thank you. I appreciate your video.
Thank you so much, Michelle for making these videos. The past couple of weeks my thumb has not had good movement (after fracturing my wrist five times, including thumb joint, in a bike wreck almost a year ago and two surgeries). I did these exercises and can now move my thumb again with much more fluid movement. I think the one behind the back really helped. I am extremely active and love yoga etc, so having a part of me not able to move has been distressing, as I'm sure all of the people getting help from you can relate. Thank you for giving me hope with this! I also agree with everyone that I love your gentle personality and how you explain these.
Thankfully an exercise that helps me I have rum tied arthritis in both hands and wrists this helped me touch my little fingers and thumbs together which I haven’t been able to for years thank you again ❤❤
Thank you for this clip of exercises. I have bad arthritis in my top joints from playing guitar all my life. Its great to see something that can help. ❤️👍
Thank you for this video - the exercises did help, and I will do them daily. Your voice is very soothing! I have osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, two carpel tunnel surgeries and one thumb surgery so pain and stiffness are daily companions. It is doubly hard because all my hobbies involved my hands (cross stitch, quilting, tennis, etc.) So any pain relief is most welcome, and I also appreciate the comments in this thread. I subscribed!
You are welcome! I also have s video for clumsy fingers- STOP Dropping Things! 5 Exercises to Help Clumsy Hands and Fingers ua-cam.com/video/SgTuVGp3j0w/v-deo.html
I have just practiced these exercises for my fingers because i also suffer from rheumatoid arthritis because of computer's finger overuse and I am satisfied having found you and your beautiful approach. Thank you very much. Of course I will suscribe. Kind regards!
Glad that Key doesn't have the rumbly in the tumbly anymore!!! You are adorable in sickness and good health Key! Such a lucky boy to have Jodie for a mom! She always looks after you and makes sure you get the best of everything. Thank you, Jodie, for updating us! Much Love from New York State 💜💜💜💜💜
Sadly my little fingers on both hands can no longer bend, awaiting replacement joint surgery here in the UK, all of my finger tip joints are on the way out, the pain sometimes is unbearable. I found your voice to be most soothing, you should have a radio channel.
Thank you very much. I had my middle finger tip bent. After doing your exercise it has completely straightened after just 2 days. Also the fingers feel RELAXED with feel of blood circulating.
Thank you for this. Found out that the arthritis in my fingers isn’t as bad as I thought. Saving this to my exercise file because I want to be able to improve at playing my guitar and my stiffness is holding me back. Again thanks.
thank-you, lot of hand pain this morning, well everyday, but this morning was most noticeable. subscribed. have done many therapies and even carpal tunnel surgery, also have fibromyalgia, i will follow your workouts and be hopeful.
It's the diet. You have to stop eating and drinking vegetable oils. The worst diet to follow is low fat synthetic sugars processed vegetable oil GMO grains. Eat simple. Takes about 3 to 6 months to rid your body.
Thank you! I have been doing all of your exercises since last night and my middle trigger finger already feels better! I had been contemplating going to get a shot in it, but if I can do exercises for this trigger finger and both of my hands - I would much rather go this way! Both hands feel more flexible!
Please do a few videos on de quervain tenosynovitis, cubital tunnel syndrome and guyon canal syndrome, writing posture, wrist posture and how to hold a pen and how to avoid problems due to writing too much writing, I know that's a whole lot! But you're the perfect person to make these videos, I'm hitting that subscribe button!
LOL! That is a lot but I do have some of those video already made. Cubital tunnel- ua-cam.com/video/hgPRTGbAruo/v-deo.html and writing- ua-cam.com/video/DpNiGiEORW4/v-deo.html. Will add the others to my list. Thanks for subscribing!
My job that I have now I’ve been working there 2years I work for a laundry service for a major hospital in my city before I started working there I had no problem with my hands so these exercises help my thumb on my right hand since that’s my dominant hand was very stiff before I started these exercises, but now I can move it freely
Just saw your vedio ,, and I found so helpful,, I have problem my middle finger on my left hand and ring finger on my right hand,,, hopefully by doing this tips will solve my problem, ❤😮
Use levers, wheels, and handles to get the job done. Use C-type clamps for handles, replace door knobs with handles, put wheels under anything you have to move, hand rails in bathtubs and showers.
The inflamation and pain jumps from joint to joint. One day one or three joints can be swollen and painful and then it transfers to another joint. Its the weirdest thing. I'll give these exercises another go. Thanks
I think your vid on thumb really helped. Mine was clicking but your excerise about gripping tennis ball accelerated imporvment - but I definantly find drinking plenty of fluid helps. You have such a sparkle in yr eyes. Reminds me of comment about squeezy hole
Thank you so much these exercises are just what I needed. I have had the swelling for many years but lately my fingers won’t bend without cracking and sometimes they feel stuck and finally a louder crack will release them to bend . I’m hoping theses exercises will help. Take care x

I haven't it's getting an appointment but I know that I have it as been told I have it in my knee.
That medication is hurting your kidneys. Try to do this instead.
Hello I also have the same disease...it gets worse in the morning..I was diagnosed at the age of 18.. how do you cope with this illness? And what meds you are on?
I likd the exercise
I get really bad pain in my left hand. I also use cbd oil on my hands. It has helped a lot
Good exercises to get them moving. But the best way is first or overnight to wear a 100% wool or other natural fiber like mohair, alpaca or angora, hand or wrist warmer, glove or mitt. This will warm up your hands and increase circulation to alleviate pain and increase the capcity for movement. Wool works well as long as it is not superwash or has any synthetic.

Thank you for sharing good exercises on finger💛
It is very helpful💛
I have osteathritis in a first beginning stage, so its not developed so bad yet. I have found out a couple of great excersices and tips below that helped me tremendously, especially point 2. has been a miracle excercise for me.
1. soak hands in warm water (not so hot as it burns, but still more hot than lurk warm). Keep them submerged for 3-5 minutes.
2. Now this one I haven't really heard about or read anywhere, but I figure it out myself where I was just massaging my fingers. I was kinda mindblown at the result.

Also be very careful not to twist the finger, must pull in straight direction and not either left or right but straigth away from the hand. This significantly reduces or even get rid of stiffness and finger joint pain, almost immediately and over time. It also feels incredibly nice for some reason, sometimes I get the goosebumbs on my arms or back as I feel the blood being squeezed into the finger.
3. squeeze a soft rubber ball now and then. This trains the muscles in your hands which will over time help support you joints causing them to wear down slower. Be mindful to not overdo it with repetiveness as this what causes osteoathritis in the first place.

6. consider using alternatives to mouse and keyboard as the extreme repetitiveness daily for years and decades is a major culprit for osteoathritis.
7. Take daily supplements of fishoil; make sure to use products that are certified free from toxins, as fatty fish almost always contains very poisonous fat-soluble toxins such as dioxin and mercury etc. These toxins can easily be 100% removed through refinement by the producers of the product, but some do not do this properly because it allows them to save a little bit on the process earning them a slightly higher profit.

It is doubly hard because all my hobbies involved my hands (cross stitch, quilting, tennis, etc.) So any pain relief is most welcome, and I also appreciate the comments in this thread. I subscribed!
I will be doing these daily! I have been dropping things because of my hands. Thank you!!!
You are welcome! I also have s video for clumsy fingers- STOP Dropping Things! 5 Exercises to Help Clumsy Hands and Fingers

What a nice lady you are! Happy to know English as there is not that many useful videos in my native language
Thx. Fingers feels better after this exercises.
YES! It works - thank you!
Sadly my little fingers on both hands can no longer bend, awaiting replacement joint surgery here in the UK, all of my finger tip joints are on the way out, the pain sometimes is unbearable. I found your voice to be most soothing, you should have a radio channel.
Thank you for finger exercises!! It’s helping a lot with pain & stiffness ❤
Thank you very much. I had my middle finger tip bent. After doing your exercise it has completely straightened after just 2 days. Also the fingers feel RELAXED with feel of blood circulating.
Thank you so much it’s very useful ❤❤❤
Thanks for the finger exercise video. My fingers do feel much better after.
Thank you. You’re very relaxing person. God bless you 🙏🏻♥️🇦🇺
Thank you for these exercises! I work a lot of craft, ie knitting and crochet. The exercises have helped me enormously. x
Great, Thank you so much! Better exercises and tips than any PT I was referred to for osteoarthritis in my DIPS
That was very useful. Thanks .will try it daily.
Thank you very much,
These exercises have been very useful, and I really feel my fingers less stiff after.
I will do it once a day from now on

Thank you for this. Found out that the arthritis in my fingers isn’t as bad as I thought. Saving this to my exercise file because I want to be able to improve at playing my guitar and my stiffness is holding me back. Again thanks.
thank-you, lot of hand pain this morning, well everyday, but this morning was most noticeable. subscribed. have done many therapies and even carpal tunnel surgery, also have fibromyalgia, i will follow your workouts and be hopeful.
It's the diet. You have to stop eating and drinking vegetable oils. The worst diet to follow is low fat synthetic sugars processed vegetable oil GMO grains. Eat simple. Takes about 3 to 6 months to rid your body.
@@ashleylaw thank-you Ashley, been eating healthy my entire life, but i appreciate your concern.
Those exercises really help. Thank you
Great video and instructions , I have had pain especially in the right index finger these exercises have loosened the stiffness Thank You

Very good exercises. Indeed, one hand is easier than the other for me.
Hi Mariam, how’s your day going with you?
Your explanation and voice itself is pain reliever. Very helpful excercises
Thank you! I have been doing all of your exercises since last night and my middle trigger finger already feels better! I had been contemplating going to get a shot in it, but if I can do exercises for this trigger finger and both of my hands - I would much rather go this way! Both hands feel more flexible!
Fantastic!

My fingers was so stiffness but after doing yr excise I feel better thanks
Doing the exercises I was reminded how my ring fingers were always weaker when playing the piano. Thank you.
Thank you so much for showing us.
That felt really good ❤ thank you!
You’re welcome 🤗
My job that I have now I’ve been working there 2years I work for a laundry service for a major hospital in my city before I started working there I had no problem with my hands so these exercises help my thumb on my right hand since that’s my dominant hand was very stiff before I started these exercises, but now I can move it freely
my finger are much relaxed immediately, thank you so much
Thank you! I My right forefinger is stiff. I will continue this finger exercise.
Very nicely explained ….thanks a lot
Just saw your vedio ,, and I found so helpful,, I have problem my middle finger on my left hand and ring finger on my right hand,,, hopefully by doing this tips will solve my problem, ❤😮
My fingers felt good after doing these exercises
Thank you, that really helped.😀
Use levers, wheels, and handles to get the job done. Use C-type clamps for handles, replace door knobs with handles, put wheels under anything you have to move, hand rails in bathtubs and showers.
The inflamation and pain jumps from joint to joint. One day one or three joints can be swollen and painful and then it transfers to another joint. Its the weirdest thing. I'll give these exercises another go. Thanks
Keep spreading the good news and show love towards others. I love you I said that because God loves everyone
Although my hands were very sore the exercise seems to help thank you ❤
Thank you, for this, therapy.
Your videos are so educational and effective.
I think your vid on thumb really helped. Mine was clicking but your excerise about gripping tennis ball accelerated imporvment - but I definantly find drinking plenty of fluid helps. You have such a sparkle in yr eyes. Reminds me of comment about squeezy hole
I found that really helpful. I have had a go and will do them every day now. Thank you .
I have never seen such a wonderful vdo! So much helpful lot of thx
Wow … Thank you .. I have very sore fingers ,my fingers and stiff and very swollen . They feel much better after doing these exercises
Hello Ma'm thanks for sharing this informative vedio. I'm from Bohol Philippines
Thank you so much these exercises are just what I needed. I have had the swelling for many years but lately my fingers won’t bend without cracking and sometimes they feel stuck and finally a louder crack will release them to bend . I’m hoping theses exercises will help.
Take care x
I really enjoy doing your follow along videos. Thanks for all the great information.

They feel little better than they did thank you so much

Hi Julie, how’s your day going with you?
