Dear Forum
I am currently doing a project on RSI/over-use injuries in massage therapists and while doing my case studies i realise that 3 of my case studies also do reflexology and suffer from over-use symptoms in the thumb and forearm muscles which help move the thumb [amongst other over-use symptoms in the forearms and hands].
I'd like to ask how common over-use symptoms in the thumbs in Reflexologists are? and, what strategies can be used to over-come these?
Thanks in advance
Melanie
