What are the exercises apropriate for the massage therapists to improve hand strength and coordination?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yours? Or theirs?: Massage usually is not for strengthening the patient. For the therapist, gripping, muscle toning with repetitive light weights, flexibility are all important items
