Description

Sit comfortably at a table, placing your relaxed arm on it. A physical therapist or another person grasps your arm (above the elbow) with one hand to provide counter-support. With the other hand, particularly using the thumb-index grip, they grasp your radius (forearm bone) and apply traction on it for a specific period determined by your physical therapist.
