Description

For this exercise, take a stick in your hands, placing one arm actively and the other arm—the one of the affected side—remaining passive. Use the active arm to slowly and controlledly push the stick to bring the joint of the affected arm to its maximum range of motion. Hold the extended position for a few seconds to maximize the stretch.
