Video Demonstration Of A Simple Pain Reduction Technique For Arthritis In Your Fingers

Hi folks,

In a previous blog post I described minor arthritis in the fingers of my left hand, which is probably just one of the maladies that comes with aging. Such minor health issues can be an annoyance, whether you are training for better health or undertaking a challenging training program for competition. My cycling buddy, Rory, has almost exactly the same issue, with swollen joints in several fingers. This condition can be extremely painful, especially whilst swimming I find. In the following video clip Rory demonstrates a simple technique that reduces the pain and swelling, and will sometimes resolve the problem completely.

This approach, which Rory showed me a year or so ago, really works.
