Position of joint traction at radiocarpal joint
general mobility, arm in pronation
Increase flexion at radiocarpal joint
dorsal glide, arm in supination
Increase extension at radiocarpal joint
anterior glide, arm in pronation

carpometacarpal/intermetacarpal joints
same roll and glide
MCP/ICP joints
distal end always concave; anterior glide = flexion, posterior glide = extension
