Hello,
I've found that the wrist stretches
practiced as warming up exercises in aikido (there are
five of them) are also quite good for relaxing one's
hands before playing shakuhachi. One can often find
illustrations of these exercises in books about aikido
(and probably on some aikido related websites).
Happy Blowing,
