Nerve Gliding Exercises

Nerve gliding exercises are gentle movements designed to help nerves move freely through surrounding tissues, which can reduce pain and improve mobility. When nerves become compressed or irritated, they can lead to discomfort and limited movement. These exercises aim to stretch and mobilize the nerves, promoting better blood flow and alleviating symptoms. Typically used in rehabilitation, they involve specific positions and movements that encourage the nerve to glide smoothly, rather than getting stuck. Consult a healthcare professional before starting these exercises to ensure they are appropriate for your condition.
