Wake up your feet and hands

People with poor circulation experience challenges with balance and mobility and have trouble starting an exercise regimen. This exercise is designed to wake the hands and feet through a series of lower-intensity moves making it easier to graduate to more rigorous exercises.
• Sit tall on a sturdy chair, so your back is straight and is not leaning against the chair back.
• Flex your fingers, opening and closing your fists several times before making fists and rolling
your wrists 10 times in each direction.
• Perform the same exercises with your feet. First, flex and point each foot independently as
you simultaneously curl and straighten your toes.
• One at a time, roll each ankle to the outside 10 times, then one at a time, roll each ankle to
the inside 10 times.
