My course Carpal Tunnel Master covers self-help techniques for various causes of hand numbness, including scalene muscles, pectoralis minor muscles, forearm muscles, as well as cubital tunnel and thoracic outlet syndromes. At the bottom of that page there is a link marked "contents" that gives more details about what is covered.

I am a dual licensed Massage Therpaist in Beachwood (suburb of Cleveland) Ohio. I believe I have tight scalenes or other neck muscles causing moring numbness and tingling in my hands. It has gotten worse lately. You seem very knowledgable about these issues. I would like to find more self help techniques and also courses on working with the scalenes and other mucsles for my patients and clients in my area. Any information would be helpful. Of course I am like the shoe makers kids, I don’t have the money for regular massage and everyone I work with is so busy or on different shifts for us to do much trading.

Thanks,

You have some really great exercises.

I get a lot of people asking me about carpal tunnel and in actual fact they have tight scanlene muscles.

I will reference this post in future responses.

Hilma, your site is a treasure! Thank you for sharing this very helpful and restorative information with the world. Your pec stretches have made me a new woman – the muscles around my shoulder blades were almost locked down, but no more. Ditto the helpful forearm massages and the scalene exercise. It makes such a difference to KNOW what is going on/wrong with one’s muscles and tendons and how to properly counteract (and prevent) overuse and strain. One question: when will the video for the other scalene stretches be posted?
