Description

Sit on a mat or a firm sofa, placing the affected forearm flat on the surface, with the palm facing down if possible. For more comfort, you can place a firm pillow under your elbow. Start by gently putting your weight on the bent elbow. Then, push with your hand against the supporting surface to straighten the elbow and sit up. After that, slowly bend the elbow and bring the forearm flat back onto the surface. Continue alternating between these two positions, performing the movement slowly and continuously.
