1.Place your elbow on a

table so that the cuff is at	Fig. A
the same level as your
heart as Fig. A.
Note: Your heart is located
slightly below your
armpit.
Relax your entire body,
especially the area
between your elbow and
fingers.

2.If the cuff is not at the same level as your heart or if you can not keep your arm

completely still throughout the reading, use a soft object such as folded towel to support your arm as Fig. B. Do not allow hard objects to come in contact with the wrist cuff.

3.Turn your palm upwards.

4.Sit upright in a chair, and take 5-6 deep breaths.
