Massage is an effective tool to manage stress and RSI symptoms.  However, a complete self-care program including proper diet, sleep, exercise, and stretching, is important to optimize health and prevent injury from daily stresses.

 

Here are a few on-line resources.  Individuals should always consult their physician before beginning a new excercise program.  All stretches and exercises should be performed with caution to prevent injury from over stretching or over exertion.   New England Workplace Therapies, LLC does not endorse these companies.
