I recently discovered that shooting free throws, either in real life at the gym or virtually via Wii Resort, is the best physical therapy for my arm. Progress on healing had mostly stopped and I realized I wasn't really using my left arm. But playing with a basketball a couple times per day has reduced pain and increased mobility. Plus it mimics sword work (right = control hand; left = power hand) but in an exaggerated and helpful way! Plus I make sure I dribble with my left hand, which is awkward and challenging, but some bonus PT.
