I have hand quilted for some time and of course the result is some carpal tunnel. I was shown some pressure points that helped with the issue. My mom even knew someone who was scheduled for surgery and was able to decline it with this method. The sad thing is that the surgery is sometimes a temporary thing and only lasts for a few years.
