Handstand on parallettes only

Hi,

due to past wrist injuries, the handstand on hands is too painful for me even if I warm up the wrists extensively. However, doing it on parallettes completely removes the pain due to the wrists neutral position. Is it possible to learn the handstand directly on parallettes without being able to do them on hands first ? Also, how do you balance on the parallettes since you are unable to use the fingertips to apply pressure?

thank you
