    You sure have helped me when I was not able to get much help or attention at all from the physical therapist. Your exercises are helping me enormously and some of my fear of ever bringing my hand and wrist movement back has been relieved. It was scary after breaking my distal radious and having 3 months of pain. It is improving finally.

    I broke my wrist this past season snowboarding. The bone "healed" on the wrong way and had to get surgery for it. I have a plate and screws on my radius. My doctor told me that I most likely would never get Supination back. However, I could definitely feel the difference after just one session with your exercises. I'm truly thankful.

    I really appreciate your video's. You explain so well and I find your exercises both doable and effective. Having broken both the radius and ulna and now suffering from shoulder pain due to repetitive stress from marking exam papers, your advice on supination and pronation of the forearm, appears to be the answer to my woes. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate you and your approach.

    What would I ever do without you?!?!?! After a wrist fracture with a very complex healing process you have been my absolute savior from the very beginning. Even after going to ordered occupational therapy sessions, I much preferred following your videos because they are so much more specific and useful and extremely well explained. I never feel silly or confused with you. You have increased my ROM more than anyone could. While I have not been able to supinate for over 3 months... I am finally seeing some results following your videos.. especially this one above. I can't ever thank you enough!

      Could you please share your story here? I broke my radius and Ulna and have plates on both the bones. It's been 2 weeks since the slab is off and I can hardly supinate 25%.(it was 15% after week 1 so definitely some improvement) I've been doing PT sessions 4-5 days a week. But progress is very very slow and it's hampering my daily activities as I can hardly supinate

    Colles fracture 6 weeks ago and searching youtube for helpful tips. You are by far the best and most descriptive, while not being boring/monotone or too quirky and "funny". I appreciate your tips on working through supination as I'm putting together that would be the first movement to work on. Thanks!

    Michelle, you are a game changer. Thank you so much for your thoughtful, helpful, and instructive videos. I had two plates put in my right (dominant) wrist on Friday, June 9, 2023 after a violent fall a couple weeks ago while hiking. My surgeon wanted me to work on light pronation and supination the day after surgery. It has been difficult, but your pillowcase exercise from another video plus these 5 have helped me so much with minimal pain. Your videos on finger movement while in a splint had me making a full fist before surgery which expedited post surgery recovery. I am 5 days removed from my surgery and I am literally touch typing this comment on a keyboard while in my post surgery splint. You really make a difference and your detailed explanations down to the bone level is beyond helpful. I don’t know how to praise you enough.

    Wow, I came across your videos two months after fracturing both my distal radius and ulna styloid. I have a plate and eight screws and have been in constant pain. I've been in therapy for one month going twice a week and these videos have helped more than therapy. I was at a negative degree at supination after my cast came off, but with your help it has improved drastically. I also need improvement on flexing up and down. I have saved all your videos and will add them to my daily routine. THANK YOU!

    I suffered a Colles fracture to my dominant arm in October with subsequent ORIF. I’ve been in hand therapy and I cannot supinate. I am so very frustrated. I don’t want to go back to work until I can at least hold something in my hand, turn a door handle and eat properly with a fork.
    I fractured my left wrist in 2002 and was never able to fully supinate that hand, but I was able to cope because I still had my right one to take my meds and receive change.
    You’ve given me some hope.

    I've had to deal with a brachial plexus injury from birth, having nerves taken out of my calves to make my arm at least somewhat usable. So for my 23 years of life I haven't been able to fully use my right arm, as a result it's gotten weaker and smaller than my left. I might not ever be able to get it to fully extend, but here's hoping that I can at least restore my rotation to some degree through doing these exercises.

    Holy crap thanks so much! I really needed this. When I was around 11 years old I ended up breaking my wrist due to me attempting to preform a "backflip" off a swing set. I ended up fracturing my left elbow, which casting led to me only gaining around 60% supination and 100% pronation. This was horrible for me, as I played guitar frequently at the time and could not play most of the notes on the fret-board. Thanks to you, I am now able to resume my 90% supination and am able to play all the notes on my guitar without problem!

I developed workarounds, including "thumb chords" and working with open tunings to create surprises where I just can't do normal professional fingerings. I'm now 72 and it's supposed to be "too late" to do anything about it medically.

    Thank you so much Michelle virtual hand care for this information and exercises, you are doing a great job, I am 4 weeks down with a bike skid resulting in left forearm radius and ulna fracture followed by a surgery and implants of plates and screws in both the bones, quite painful, but I am recovering, I was having a lot of problem in forearm movements, but your videos are really helping me , n have reduced the pain which i used to get during supination, still I am not able to rotate it completely, but I am hopeful to get there, thank u so much for these exercises

    Thanks for providing this well explained insight. My supination of 45 degrees (as measured by a physiotherapist) plays havoc with trying to play barre chords on guitar. I'll now focus on stretching the muscles (etc) around my radius.

      Could you please share your story here? I broke my radius and Ulna and have plates on both the bones. It's been 2 weeks since the slab is off and I can hardly supinate 25%.(it was 15% after week 1 so definitely some improvement) I've been doing PT sessions 4-5 days a week. But progress is very very slow and it's hampering my daily activities as I can hardly supinate

      @@sushilsalins3576 Hello sir! Thank God that you're doing better now. Be persistent in suggested exercises and don't force out of proportion. Body will heal in due course of time. I know it's very very challenging but with strong will and regular daily care you will get better very soon. I was practicing regularly and also tried hot and cold compression of water. Applied Dr. Ortho oil as well. Eucalyptus oil also helped. Only thing is that daily push your limits with great love and care. It took almost 3 months plus to fully recover from pain. Everyone has different situation but whatever it may be I'm sure that you'll do better.

    I don't feel I am getting anywhere.
    But now I have found your channel, I am more hopeful.
    I was beginning to think that I would not be able to work again.
    My accident was almost 3 months ago, and my last plaster was on for 5 weeks but too tight, so was in a lot of pain.

    Michelle, thank you for your videos! You have helped me more than my sessions of therapy. I had a fracture of the ulnar styloid and your exercises for supination are so effective. I followed also the extension exercises and it makes so much more sense to not go directly into flexion as my therapist suggested. It was so uncomfortable and was making little progress. Just by allowing the stretches to go deeper in extension I made significant progress with less pain. Your explanations are so good in how the forearm is moving and how the exercises should be done. So very helpful!🙏

    Hi,
    I shattered both the radius and ulna very near the elbow on November 16, 2021, had rods, plates and screws implanted and am currently in PT and OT for Lymphedema rehab and to get function back. I have had progress with OT on flexion and extension of the forearm but have not had much success with supination, I currently cannot supinate very much at all. In addition, I have a lot of swelling and pain in my wrist and all fingers especially the pinky and ring fingers. The doctor ordered the supination Dynasplint and I have been using it for several weeks and only ended up with more wrist pain. So, I tried your supination exercises as well as the hand and wrist exercises and am thrilled with the increased ROM. Thank you so much for posting these.

    Wow, thanks for your knowledge, great video. I'm 12 weeks into recovery and I've been struggling to roate my wrist fully. I've only just managed to get passed a. 1/4 turn from the neutral position with my own muscle strength, been having to use warm water and use my other hand as passive movement by pushing on just below my thumb to help it get further down. However, this always seems to cause pain to the pinky side of the my wrist, perhaps to much torque to the wrist.
    I'll give the above ago, and see how much I improve over the next few weeks, but you made some interesting comments, so hopefully more range and less pain 😁

The only thing is that sometimes I have pain with some repetitive movements (computer work).
