The use of percussion hammer
1. Hold the percussion hammer between the thumb and index finger, and quickly tap the tendon or periosteum with appropriate strength.
2. With the wrist joint as the axis, bend the wrist 30° when tapping, and increase the speed of the distal end of the percussion hammer to enhance the percussion force.
