Median Nerve Glide / Flossing In this video we are going over how to glide or floss the median nerve. . The median nerve originates on the cervical spine and travels through the front of the shoulder, medial arm and down the middle of the forearm. The nerve can get caught along that path, from scar tissue, adhesions or muscle tension. Symptoms tend to include, tingling, numbness, and/or radicular pain. ... . We use the flossing technique to free the nerve and restore normal function. . This exercise can be performed in either the sitting or standing position. . In this video we are flowing the right median nerve. To start, raise your right arm to the side at 90 with palm facing up. Laterally bend your head to the right and flex your right wrist so that the fingers are pointing downward.
