We have shared this great gift before as part of our 'my functional Friday' posts on our social media platforms, but we will share it again as it is such a great rehab tool.
On the fourth day of Christmas.......Travel Solitaire - Some people may have experienced the 9 hole peg test used as a way of assessing hand dexterity by clinicians. This is a great way of practicing with repetition but that also challenges your problem solving.
3. Christmas stocking filler idea......
The Fidget Dodecagon- This great gadget enables a range of functional hand activities from a switch, slides, buttons and dials. A built in elastic band is also hand for resistance finger exercise.
On the second day of Christmas.....neuro rehab practice treated its clients to @BlazePod.Uk !! A fun, competitive and reactive neuro rehab tool. Follow us in the new year as we will be posting more upper and lower limb rehab xx
It's Christmas!!
The NeuroBall.......through engaging and repetitive practice, our clients have been training using the NeuroBall, resulting in an increased awareness of their affected arm and improved functional abilities in their lives.
Happy Christmas to everyone xx
