- Опубліковано 29 лип 2020
- Join physiotherapist, Shelly Yu, for an exercise series focused on hand and dexterity challenges associated with Parkinson’s Disease. Exercises in this series will target upper extremity movement, hand dexterity, grip strength, hand-finger coordination and overall arm function. As this is a hand and dexterity class, all exercises will be done in sitting- ideally in a chair without arm rests. Equipment to prepare for the exercise series include:
- A chair without arm rests to sit in
- A tea towel/ kitchen towel
- A small cushion/pillow
We welcome all individuals with Parkinson’s to this webinar as well as their spouses and/or carepartners/caregivers, as they may benefit from learning more about the disease to assist in supporting their loved one.

Superb video
Wonderful exercises - didn't realize how much my hands and muscles in the arms etc need exercise!
Hi,
Am so grateful for the unique hand and finger dexterity exercises that you have shared with us.
Just by observing the spacing on your fingers on the videos thumbnail, I knew this was the material I would love to absorb myself in.
I play guitar and one of my main focus is having independence in my fingers.
The way you engage your audience is warm and welcoming. You laugh through some of the challenging exercise that you feel at such a point some of us are experiencing tough situation. You encourage us to keep up focusing on quality rather than speed.
Be blessed immensely.
Thanks for your excellent videos on hands 🙌
Thanks really appreciate your videos on hands 🙌
Good information mam
Nicely done! These exercises are to help with the loss of movement, strength and rigidity I’m guessing..?
Hello! Thank you for your comment. That is correct! We hope you found these exercises helpful.
