Happy Easter to everyone!
The extensor expansion is our topic of the day!

The fingers and toes represent the head zones in reflexology, they had an important role for Dr. Fitzgerald in zine therapy, in Chinese medicine they are where meridians begin or finish and all the points found there are important.
Interestingly we do not find muscle tissues there, we do find tendons, bone, connective tissue.
Knowing this anatomical detail can have a positive influence on what techniques to use on the fingers.
My favourite technique is from ART training with Anthiny Porter. The back and forth lateral movement of thumb.

An extensor expansion, or dorsal expansion, or dorsal hood, is the special connective attachments by which the extensor tendons insert into the phalanges.
