Thank you for the advise. I will start incorporating that onto my rehab. I noticed my walking worsen when I move a lot. Working out is a challenge buy I'm committed. Thanks again. Good stuff ❤

I noticed this when I am tired and walk more than usual or as I climb the stairs. Thanks Tara, certainly in a daily rotation. Have a nice week.😄

What a wonderful explanation for disasociation. Thank you so much Dr Tara Tobias for this superb video

My gait feels like I’m trying to grab the ground in front of me with my toes

For me abnormal synergy is everywhere. 1. If I bend the knee on my unaffected side the affected side knee also wants to bend. 2. If I bend the knee on the affected side, my arm also flexes. 3. If I do leg raises on my affected side, the knee likes to bend. I think not having foot and ankle movement contributes to most of it. It's like my brain doesn't know the difference between the arm and the leg, When I lift the affected side leg up, it wants to drop down quickly, I think that's the tone/spasticity. I also can't bring my foot up towards my back, so this affects walking also. Still working, it's a tough road but still going.

Excelentes ensinamentos ❤

Thank you for the information ❤👍

Thanks doctor.

This video really helps

Did anyone else have extreme empathy pains while watching these exercises 😱?

Thank YOU!! Really appreciate your videos! I would love to see your dog a bit!!

I am 13 years post stroke and still making some progress. I will try these exercises. I have mild foot drop and spasticity. I have an afo but don’t wear it much as it limits my ability to to do Zumba classes and yoga and Pilates. I find my gate is worst when I am tired. I think I danse better than I walk. Thank you for all these videos

No the majority of the time my therapist begins with an array of chastising me and discouraging me?... yes i said it. Sorry not sorry.

I love this one..is there a link to the part one video?

I have Sjögrens syndrome and iron deficient anaemia. I am being tested for lupus. Some days I cant get out of bed, not for a lack of will, but because I physically am barely able to move or think straight. I have no energy. If on my better days I am productive or, gasp, dare to have a bit of fun, I pay dearly for it the next. This is all very recent and I'm frustrated and upset. I'm not yet forty and I feel twice my age. Sorry about moaning. Today was a bad day.

TX UGC on ,

It sounds easy but it's not

I have both FND & MS. 15 years with MS, only a couple of months with FND so it is complicated. Going to PT for both.

Thank you for the tips ❤

Thank you mam

God Bless you Thank you for your videos

Thank you, Dr. Tara!💖 As a stroke warrior (5 1/2 years) I have both spasticity issues and foot drop 🙄 I have been on a quest this week for ways to strengthen my anterior tibialis and as my guardian angel, here you are to properly get me started!!!

The audio is screwed up for me. The add and everything else on YT sounds fine.

Thank you so much Dr Tara Tobias for this reminder exercise

Had a stroke in January. I have no problem or pain walking backwards but knee hurts walking forward.

Amazing 😍

Dr Tara, my insurance aborted my rehabilitation after three rounds (I've had full rehabilitation for almost 2 years on and off) due to continuous decline, what should i do now, I have generalized Dystonia , I'm still getting tested for mitochondrial diseases (other conditions involved,) I've followed you and exercised in between waiting frim one rehab to another without progress, took your advice for reverse cycling when i informed you the bicycle kept stopping safety stops due to many spasms it didn't help unfortunately. Please help, your advice is very appreciated.❤

Lady your video has just added life to this old soldier. God Bless You.

Thanks for sharing. Looks like something I would try out. My issue is when I sit my body shifts more towards my stronger side, no matter what chair I sit in because I have no foot control, therefore my knee and hip is weak on my affected side, so my foot doesn't plant on the floor. It's like my unaffected side is helping me sit all by itself. It's the same when I sit up in the bed, only my unaffected side is doing the work, my knee comes up on my affected side, due to not having foot movement. When I get out of a car, my affected side knee/leg goes all the way out in the air to get it out of the car. I try to do sit ups to see if that can help, but it hurts my back because only one side is doing the lifting.

Love both short and long format. My daughter is just starting post op PT after her peroneal nerve was cut, still in kbee isolation wrap and dorsal flexion boot but soon she could try some of your exercises. Thanks!

Hi Dr Tobiàs thank you for the information il start doing your tips as a stroke survivor to try regain my hand&shoulder movement+ my leg

Thankyou for being present in our life. How big fan are you of the treadmill and if any benefit or not in a stroke recovery ?

Thanks always

I’ve just been diagnosed with fnd and I don’t believe it. My bloodwork constantly shows that I’ve got an infection or am fighting off an illness, I have rashes all over my body, I’m allergic to so many foods and so many other things. I believe that a lot of my symptoms line up but this honestly sounds like a load of bs.

Great video I’ve used your other exercise and have had in improvement i’m definitely gonna use these keep doing your good job. Keep doing the work. I really appreciate you.❤

Im glad you'll keep doing longer videos too. Great videos (long/short)

I've just got released from my third inpatient rehabilitation, and my declining isn't stopping they've put down in the recommendation to follow PT and OT in local clinics..I've lost hope completely..I've tried many times and the last one is a university hospital with great resources...I've lost hope at this rate I'll be barely functional in 2 years 😢

Love the three-minute videos!

Thank you for this. I've saved a number of your longer videos but haven't watched them due to time constraints.

I have spent years trying to improve my condition and always turn-up "foot drop"; this is the first time I've seen this term used; as opposed to consulting ortho, I need to consult a nuero.

Curious if you have a book or pamphlet of these exercises?

Does this work for multiple Sclerosis

But, how to move back with a paralysed and heavy leg ?
