Passive Range of Movement of fingers

Who will tell me the number of repetitions that I need to do  for my fingers to kill the spasticity in them? Should the fingers be done individually or can they be done as a group? Tell me a number and I will start counting. 10 million as a group? And then 10 million for each finger?  A billion or two?

I was at Jazz Tuesdays at Moriarties last night, So for three hours I could flex my fingers, if needed I could start counting and calculate how many hours  it would take to get to a specified number.  Others might need little motors to flex for them.  That is something a great stroke association could build and sell to the 10 million yearly stroke survivors.  I could use it also since I have to use my good hand to eat and drink. 

This way back in April 2004 gives some hints as to recovery via PROM. 

The effects of repetitive proprioceptive stimulation on corticomotor representation in intact and hemiplegic individuals.

If anyone followed this up with better research and a protocol I don't know where it is. This is precisely why I call then fucking failures of stroke associations, they do nothing for survivors.
