"Grasp with upper arm" means she caught it in her armpit. If her arms were severed at the elbows, she is still able to grasp with her upper arm.

Similarly, grasping with the lower arm means to squeeze something on the inside of the elbow joint.

Now, a headlock performed with the armpit alone should be less effective (and maybe the game takes that into account already, not sure) but it's still definitely sort of possible. In case you're wondering for modding purposes, [JOINT] is the magical tag that allows you to wrestle like that.
