elbow and fingers.

located slightly
below your armpit.

level as your heart or if
you cannot keep your arm
completely still throughout the

as a folded towel to support
your arm as shown in Fig. B.
3. Turn your palm upwards.
4. Sit upright in a chair, and take
5-6 deep breaths.
Note: Avoid leaning back while

being taken as shown in
