A friend of mine cured his carpal tunnel by soaking his hands and wrists in hot water for 15 minutes then immediately after soaking them in ice cold water for 15 minutes.

He did this for two years straight!

I do this when I know I overworked my hands and will regret it the next day. Amazingly if I do it that night, the next day I have NO effects of overworking my hands.
You need to do the cold water soak after the hot!!! If you skip the cold soak you will be hurting even more the next day.

An example is when people take hot showers to feel better after they overwork their back then the next day they can't move.
