Thank you for this video! After doing this exercise regularly for a couple months with a stroke survivor, his affected arm is no longer tingly, numb, heavy. The affected arm feels the same as his unaffected side. Should we continue to do the exercise regularly even after normal sensation/function has returned?
❤thanks so much. I wish I had been shown this sooner. So much time has been lost ! I remember that rehab told me, “ after a year, it’s probably not coming back.” At least I didn’t believe them, now I feel like I hav tools.
I so look forward to your posts I have a problem though determining what condition my daughter is experiecing in the leg. The therapist says it is not drop foot. I cant recall ever seeing a video on the other conditions that may be experience in the leg after a stroke
Dr. Tobias been subscribed and really appreciate your videos.its been more than 5 years now since I had a stroke. will u please be honest and tell me if there's any chance to regain function in my hand and fingers? Thank you.
Thanks for the great video. I used to do weight bearing at home to break plasticity on my arm but my physiotherapist said after supination and pronation, the plastic muscles may become tenser. What do you think?
If the shoulder is subluxed can you do any weight bearing exercises to strengthen the shoulder? If so, what exercises can you do? Thank you for all your assistance.😢
I have some finger movement we bough ta product named digi flex a product it comes with graduated resistance' and can exercise the in dividual finger but also con verts to a whole hand exerciser.
**************************************** We hear the word stretching, stretching should be stretched, So what actually happens is the left side is shortened, the length of the arm, the length of the leg and more... as a result of this the body has a tendency to close to the inner side, the left hand wants to turn to the right... the new proposal is to stretch the arm, leg, with dumbbells. And in addition, make rotations to the opposite side, that is, to the outside of the body. Thank you, Creator of the world, thank God. This will be a global revolution in treatment!
Great video and all I could think about after you showed it was the Dycem. I guess that's always went through my head something like that could be very beneficial.
Hi I love your videos. Do you have video on subluxation. I do need help . My trainers did not address the problem so my arm is not getting any use.thank you Larry
Thanks for watching!! Best place to start is to isolated just shoulder movement in a gravity eliminated position. Here is a video that you can try. I know it says for spasticity but you could do these. The elbow splint will keep the arm straight so that you can just focus on shoulder movement. The arm on the table makes this movement "gravity eliminated". I hope this helps! ua-cam.com/video/vBewElX9M08/v-deo.html
I have a question. April. 5 th. I had my stroke. And. Its. June 26. So its. Not 3 months yet. Maybe. Im wanting to fast. My talking and mind. Is. Coming back even though. I have. A hard. Time. with. Certian. Words
I’ve watched recent videos with you discouraging strength training. I had lumbar laminectomy with fusion. I have foot drop and my left leg is very weak and I walk poorly with a cane. I lose my balance. The exercises hurt me. I need to learn how to walk again with pain and weakness. I need some relearning motor ideas. Your thoughts would help. Thanks, David
Thanks for the comment! if the nerve root was damaged treatment would be slightly different and yes, you would incorporate more specific muscle strengthening as the nerve damage is very localized to a specific muscle. I hope that helps! I have a playlist for foot drop. Lots of great videos for you.
Miss I want to tell you that after doing these exercises my arm becoming flexible but after an hour are so the arm again become hard please advise me for the same
is there anyway to get my shoulder back after it becoming (sublux) I'm starting to get arm movement but my shoulder is out of place please do you know of anyway I can get my shoulder back into place or is it stuck like this forever now? anybody who knows could you let me know please
Madam ,my father's left hand fingers remains straight,he cannot bend or close it , It is stiff which exercise will he do as I have to help him in doing it as he is bedridden and he is 75 years old.
Hello, not sure if this is the right place to pose this question but here goes. I have pretty good range of motion with my affected arm. I thought I had spasticity in my arm but it doesn't coincide with your description. Maybe it's just spastic - not sure if there's a difference. My arm has a mind of its own. My fingers and hand are in nearly constant movement. The arm has a tendency to get jerky the farther away it gets from my body. My stroke was in 2007 and it has progressively gotten worse. My grip with this hand is mostly a death grip - too tight, will crush alum cans, plastic bottles, Styrofoam and Solo cups. Lack of tactile sensation in fingers. I'll be happy to follow any suggestions or guidance to appropriate videos! Thank you for any help, Guy
Please advise. I'm a 53 yr old woman stroke survivor. I have left side residual numbness after 3 yrs. My problem is that for the last 2 months it is difficult and painful to extend my left arm from my inner elbow to both the outer and inner forearm. Please advise any type of exercises. Thank you🏋.
Hi doctor, Thank you very much for sharing vedios it's really helping in my recovery.i would like to ask how to keep hand against gravity? My elbow is bending and wrist also blending .could you please please suggest .
Thank you for watching! That is a great question. It is hard for me to answer questions specific to you without actually evaluating you. Generally speaking, for those who have spasticity in the wrist and hand, weightbearing activities are best. I hope this helps!
@@karteekkumar9768, unfortunately, my license does not allow to honor this request. But generally speaking, you want to use the tools and suggestions I recommend. In Every video for the arm I give several modifications for the problems that you are having. I hope this helps. :)
Thank you for the exercise. May God the Almighty guide to Islam.😍😍😍I want to ask by doing this exercise consistently can our arm recover from the spasity in all joints by the permission God The Almighty

Are there any safe exercises to try with a sublimed shoulder?
subluxed not sublimed 😬
All I know if there’s subluxation in the shoulder no weight bearing should be done.

Hey, just to let you know you're not alone. 34 and had 3 strokes
