❄️ Hello Winter! ❄️
Cold weather can make hands feel stiff, achy, and less flexible — but a little movement goes a long way!

☕ Warm up those hands today with:
✔️ Gentle finger stretches
✔️ Wrist circles
✔️ A cozy mug grasp (yes, hot cocoa counts!)

Keeping your hands moving helps maintain strength, flexibility, and comfort all season long.

Stay warm, stay moving, and take care of those hands! 💙

❄️ Snow Shoveling Got Your Hands Working Overtime? ❄️

Before you grab that shovel, give your hands & wrists some love! Snow shoveling can be tough on your joints if you’re not careful.

🧤 Hand-Saving Tips:
✔️ Wear insulated gloves with good grip
✔️ Use two hands on the shovel (share the workload!)
✔️ Keep wrists in a neutral position—avoid bending
✔️ Take breaks and stretch your fingers & wrists
✔️ Switch hands often to prevent overuse

💡 Hand Therapist Pro Tip:
If your hands feel sore, stiff, or tingly after shoveling, it may be a sign they’re working too hard. Early care can prevent bigger injuries!

👉 Your hands do a lot—don’t let snow slow them down!

🎄 Don’t Grinch Your Grip! 💚
The holidays are grip-heavy season—wrapping gifts 🎁, carrying packages, cooking big meals 🍪, and hanging decorations!

Want to keep your hands strong and pain-free this season? Try these hand-therapy-approved grip boosters:

✔️ Squeeze therapy putty or a stress ball
✔️ Towel wringing (pretend you’re cleaning up after the Grinch 😉)
✔️ Pinch clothespins onto a towel edge
✔️ Open jars using proper grip mechanics (no sneaky strain!)

Strong hands = more joy, less ouch ✨
If your grip is feeling more Grinchy than jolly, a certified hand therapist can help!

🎅💪 Your hands deserve some holiday love too.

❄️ Cold weather = Stiffness weather! ❄️
Ever notice your hands feel extra tight, achy, or slow when the temperature drops? You’re not imagining it!

Cold temps can:
🧊 Increase joint stiffness
🧊 Reduce circulation
🧊 Make arthritis or old injuries feel louder

Hand therapy tip:
🔥 Warm up before you move! Try a warm mug, heated towel, or gentle hand exercises to get things moving again.

Your hands work hard all year long—give them a little extra love when it’s cold out 💙

❄️ Winter Warm-Up for Your Hands ❄️

Cold weather can make hands feel stiff, achy, and slow to move—especially if you have arthritis, tendon issues, or nerve symptoms. A quick warm-up can help improve circulation, flexibility, and comfort before starting your day.

🖐️ Try this 3-minute hand warm-up:
1️⃣ Rub hands together briskly for 30 seconds
2️⃣ Open & close fists slowly x10
3️⃣ Finger taps: touch each fingertip to your thumb
4️⃣ Wrist circles both directions x10

💡 Tip: Use a warm towel or heating pad (on low) before exercises for extra relief.

Consistent warm-ups can make a big difference in how your hands feel this winter! If pain or stiffness is limiting your daily activities, a Certified Hand Therapist can help.

👉 Save this post & share with someone whose hands hate the cold!
