4 years of thumb pain gone! Within a week most pain disappeared and after a month it had completely gone. I can't say how much I appreciate this video. Absolute game changer. Thank you.

I just did these exercises one time through and I already have EXTREME RELIEF. It feels so much better, I could cry. Thank you Bob and Brad. You guys really deserve the title "Most Famous" ❤️

I've been with this pain for almost 2 months and these have been the only exercises that have helped to ease the pain, thanks guys!

I want to thank you for your DeQuervain's videos especially. I have been crocheting as a means to make some side money and it ground to a halt one day when my thumb began to hurt. Because of these videos I have been able to get on the road to recovery even though I cant afford to see a physical therapist in person. Thank you, thank you, thank you! You're making a difference for me!

I never find anything on the internet that helps me but this actually worked for my wrist pain! Thanks guys!

Thank you, so happy to have found this video! My doc has told me I have Dequervains but didn’t say what to do for it. Gave me lidocaine to rub on it. The base of my thumb is constantly so swollen I cannot even see the tendons. Ugh. I tried these exercises this morning. I have my ice pack on. I know it’s going to help me going forward. Thank you so much, I’m crying, not from sadness but, because I can finally see relief coming. You guys help me so much with my chronic pain issues!

For people that struggle with this. (I was one) it lasted MONTHS, I was starting to lose hope it would ever go away. Wore a brace for months and Not sure if the exercise helped or made it worse. But it eventually subsided. Good luck to all and keep hope.

I just want to say thank you for doing proper closed captioning. It’s a huge help.

THANK YOU! I am a new mother to my son, the pain in my left wrist was getting SO BAD I couldn't hold him. I was simply told I have what's known as "mothers wrist" by a doctor and brushed off, its been 7 months and getting worse each day. I did these exercises once and i feel slightly relief I'm so thankful

This video saved my life. After 4 years of pain, massaging and stretching this finally helped me out of the pain. Don't lose hope, it took half a year for me to get rid of the pain in my wrist with these exercises.

[KellyCannondeBorda]

You guys are the absolute best. Every time a part of my 60 year old body starts hurting, y'all have exactly the exercises I need. Thank you so much!

Been suffering because of this for almost 2months, then saw this video, YOU BOTH ARE MY REAL LIFE SAVER! 😭

[WilliamTozzo]

Just a huge thank you. My orthopoedic hand specialist basically walked into the room, diagnosed in 30 seconds, which was fine. But then gave me a cortisone shot, a brace, and told me to wear the brace for a "few weeks" and if it still hurt we should operate on it. Then he left. Total, 10 minutes. I started doing this and it already is starting to feel better.

[davenathan]

Followed these directions for six months. Massively reduced the pain and discomfort from my tendinitis. Thanks, chaps.

[Deepakads-on]

Thank you bob and brad I'm all clear you are the famous therapist on the world I'm so grateful

[victoriarobynn]

I’ve been doing this for a little over two weeks now and it’s definitely helping! It hurt a lot at first and I was worried that I was aggravating it but I had a huge drop in pain a couple days ago. It just keeps getting better every day! I’ve had this for 8 months and I’m so thankful I found this video, honestly a lifesaver. I’ll update once the pain is gone completely!

[oliviagrandy]

It took a few months, but this routine healed my DeQuervain’s! Thank you! 👏👏👏

[stevel]

Glad you put this up here guys. Here I am four years later benefiting from this? I am a guitarist and am not able to play for more than ten minutes without pain. I was starting to feel depressed as my Dr gave me a wrist brace that totally prevented by playing. Thanks again guys.

[Guy-bfwm]

I'm stuck with this syndrome for almost 2 years now, and even after several meetings with a doctor nothing helped until I tried to search for some things online and found this video. After almost a week I could make a normal fist again, thank you very much!!!!

[kevinbtang]

It took several weeks but my pain has finally dissipated! I still do these exercises/stretches every few days as a preventative measure. Using my phone less has definitely helped too. Thanks!
