Hi Dr. Tobias, I would have never thought that half round blue roll will make such a difference. I only started doing these exercises yesterday afternoon. Before I went to bed I could lift up my arm straight forward. Next morning ( today ) I woke up with crazy muscle pain. 😀 I can not thank you enough for all your videos. Thank you so much. You are giving my life back. 🥲

Doc, I have been watching your video over and over, and learn something new each time I watch. You are really amazing. My shoulder is stucked, I can't raise my hand. Now I see the hope. Thank you!

Recently I have taken to sleeping on tatami style mat. My thinking is that as an infant ND toddler all.this arm extension was a natural result of the ambulatory theater. So my therapy room now resembles a toddlers crib with a few extras, a mini trampoline, several aerobic step up blocks, resistance bands, hand rails, etc. Designing new challenges in safe ways with material o hand is the ride I'm on, and I am with much concentration now able to open a doorwith left hand. It's slow going, but it's going. Appreciate this channel so much! Peace!

Keep up the good work. I am learning alot, and progressing in my confidence and flexion of my left arm as well, muchly appreciated Dr. Tara.

Just today, after I followed the excercises, I found out that this is the missing strecthes my upper right desperately need. Thank you Dr. Tara.

[saintchidi]

Thanks for the video. I have a question. My right arm is just straight down my right side and what should I do to make it move? Again my fingers are not moving

[mus]

I did it and it is so helpful, thank you very much Dr Tara

[elainemashburn]

I love this one.Sure helps with my super spastic bicep. Thanks so muchvTara

[mrstevek]

Love the cane exercise. I will be doing this one

[BKNAM]

I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos and attempting to do the exercises. Thank you for your time and I look forward to seeing more of your videos. I suffered a major stroke back in February of last year 2019and I struggle with tightness in my left arm and hand. Some of the video lost audio but I will not let that keep me from doing the exercises

[meoutstandingprojectsoman]

Thank you very much Dr Tara, I will do it.
Great video

Doc, you are my saviour, Thank you! Doc, I haven't been able to walk and talk for many years now, I won't give up. I work out every minute of the day, but the result almost seems like i'm going nowhere. There are so many areas I need to fix, you give me hope. How should I plan my programs in a day? What's the rule to set up priority? What are the important areas?How long for each session?

[HalfWarrior]

Tara, God bless you for your dedication to the world of stroke survivors!

[alenaoulehle]

[reynaldocrisostomo]

thanks for sharing.😄😄😃😃😂😂😁😁❤❤❤❤i have watched this video many timesin the past but this time it makes more sense why doing it.

Hi Dr.Tara. What exercises can I do for extending the arm, as if to put it on a car steering wheel? I found your videos by chance, and I have found hope again, after eight years. I have gained about 30% arm movement since the stroke. I have an FES portable unit, if that can help.

I love the arm exercise that you did. It helps me with my spastic arm.

[Pneezy]

Hello I'm having trouble with my arm and my hand and wrist is crooked but I can bring it out but I'm leaning from you to help with my arm and you have been a great fit instructor

[lucianabarrett]

This was very helpful for me. I had a stroke in 2018. And it has been very difficult to figure out to get my shoulder, arm, and hand back together. But it is a !ong journey.

[Zitahun]

Hi Dr. Tobias, Up until now I relearned how to lift my arm sideways, but didn’t know how to lift it up straight forward. Once again thank you so much. I live off of your videos every day. You are an amazing therapist. ❤️
