This carpal tunnel exercise is designed to correct poor spinal posture and straighten rotational posture problems. Sit with no back support � on a stool or forward in a chair � with your spine straight, shoulders centered over your pelvis. The seat should be at such a height that, with your feet flat on the floor, your thighs are at a right angle to your spine, and your shins should be at a right angle to your hips. Place a small rubber ball (about 8″ in diameter) between your knees. Squeeze knees together slowly, using your inner thigh muscles. Do 3 sets of 15. This exercise may be uncomfortable or feel unnatural to you; that indicates that it is treating the correct problem and the discomfort should go away as the problem is alleviated. If real pain begins anywhere and does not go away during the exercise, stop immediately.

You can also do this exercise while lying on the floor, your legs on the stool so that you make the same two 90 degree angles.
