A member asked:
Is clapping your hands beneficial for your overall health?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well...: I can see how rhythmical clapping and dancing as a great way of getting aerobic conditioning if done for at least 30'. Clapping is often performed during excitement and perhaps an indicator of happiness , which may positively affect your mood and inner tranquility. So clapping may be beneficial, but just a clap here and there probably has a neutral affect on your health.
