UTK Far Infrared Heating Pad for Back Pain, Small 19x15 in, 60 Pure Jade

I am currently rehabbing hand pain right now and the number 1 thing that is helping is this book:

The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook: https://www.amazon.com/Trigger-Point-Therapy-Workbook-Self-T...

I believe that the primary cause of my hand pain is my forward head posture. This can create trigger points in the scalene muscles of the neck which cause sattelite trigger points in my forearms (especially the extensor muscles) and in my upper arms as well. These trigger points then refer pain to the hands. Self-massage using a lacrosse ball has pretty much eliminated my pain and seems to significantly increase bloodflow to my hands.

NOTE: be very gentle the first time you do self massage of the scalenes with your fingers. I went too hard and my scalenes swelled up for 3 days and I experienced the symptoms of thoracic outlet syndrome, ie. I had numbness from my collarbone to my middle and ring finger on my left side. It went away once my neck healed.

It definitely seems circulation related: whenever I use a computer with cold hands, it causes tension and then pain. I make sure to never use a computer with cold hands. I recently purchased this Far Infrared heating pad to heat my hands. It really does work a ton better than traditional heating pads with resistive coils. https://www.amazon.com/UTK-Infrared-Electric-Therapy-19-Inch...

Also, it is critical to correct the weakness and structural problems in the body. I do yoga, strength training, and swimming and these seem to be helping keep the trigger points from coming back. I am also doing shoulder mobility exercises with a stick and following this guide to correct my forward head posture: http://posturedirect.com/forward-head-posture-correction/
