Fix Your Injured Fingers: Lance Douglas ...

JT & Joey
About this episode

Have you ever hurt your fingers grappling? Knuckles aching from gripping too much? Finger injuries are the worst and if not treated properly can hang around much longer than they should. Lance Douglas is a physiotherapist with a deep grappling history starting in free style Wrestling for 10 years and now a brown belt in BJJ. Lance had encountered his own fair share of finger injuries and felt that not enough was being done to help grapplers treat their sore digits. He founded the Grip Physio and also invented the "Fingertine" a specialty floss band for the fingers to help reduce inflammation for swollen joints.
Lance reveals his go to moves to help strengthen the grips and also what you can do when you do hurt your fingers. If you want to get your hands on the "Fingertine" and want to know more about how to fix your bumpy knuckles click the links below.
