- Differential tendon gliding is indicated following flexor tendon surgery or surgery on the volar aspect of the hand. — Differential Tendon Gliding of the Hand
- The primary goal of differential tendon gliding is to ensure tendons continue to slide and glide effectively during surgical recovery. — Differential Tendon Gliding of the Hand
- The technique works by isolating specific tendons and practicing movements that bias one tendon, both tendons together, or the intrinsic muscles. — Differential Tendon Gliding of the Hand
- A full fist trains the flexor digitorum superficialis and flexor digitorum profundus to move effectively as a group. — Differential Tendon Gliding of the Hand
- Tendons need to learn both independent gliding and coordinated gliding together, which is why a combined full-fist exercise is included. — Differential Tendon Gliding of the Hand
- Differential tendon gliding can help reduce hand swelling by creating mobility in the hand. — Differential Tendon Gliding of the Hand
