"Blackberry Thumb" Massage
The Associated Press reports that a spa in New York City offers a specific massage for "Blackberry thumb," the repetitive strain injury common to heavy users of Blackberry phones and PDA's.
Graceful Services recently introduced a BlackBerry Finger Massage that promises to help eliminate neck, back and finger-cramping caused by excessive typing on tiny BlackBerry keyboards.
A repetitive stress injury informally known as "BlackBerry Thumb" may also affect people who spend too much time with a video game controller, television remote control or any number of handheld devices.
