Yoga therapy for your wrists

Small and unassuming but mightily complex and important - our wrists get a lot of action in yoga.
First, a little anatomy
The wrist itself is made up of 8 small carpal bones which collectively make up the carpus. These are firmly bound and provide stability and a little bit of movement. The underside (the palm side) of the carpus is slightly concave creating a channel through which tendons, nerves and ligaments pass from the forearm through to the hand - this is the Carpal Tunnel.'
