hand stretching exercises?

Hi all,

Playing some Chopin and I can't make some of the stretches. My hands are medium size I guess and my Thumbs and index fingers make no more than a right angle.

Apart from the obvious stretch of just bending the thumb as far as it will go with the other hand, are there any more sophisticated techniques for improving?

Thanks,
Adam.
