Another useless piece of therapy I do. On the handle end of the bat I can't grip my fingers close enough to solidly grab it. I think thats because I have spasticity in my finger extensors. Somebody in the world has to know why. If I work my way up the fatter part of the bat about halfway up I can solidly grip it. The various points of this therapy are
Balance, planting and spinning on my affected left foot,
Core strength, strengthen my abs,etc.
Rotation, ability to rotate the upper and lower halves of my body separately.
Straightening my left arm, trying to get my bicep to relax.
Finger strength,
Don't even think of doing something like this without your therapists' help. Think of all the wrecked furniture in your house and the extreme risk of falls.
Use a wood bat, not plastic. I may have to get bat weights to make it even more difficult.
Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 28,972 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.
