You're welcome! Glad it's helpful! Yes! That's a great idea! I do have some specific hand videos inside the MindfullMovement Program, but I should do one for KZbin too. Here's a few videos to reduce spasticity in the arm that might help to give you some more ideas: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gamumneOj69smZI kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5vdd2t3gpmferc Often when the hands/fingers have spasticity, the shoulders, spine and arms have spasticity too, and it's usually more effective to start exploring movement away from the hands/fingers as most children have had very negative experiences with their hands. I often don't touch children's hands for the first few lessons, as their brain's have already wired in a defensive reaction (an increase in spasticity) to being touched. So exploring the spine, shoulder and arms in such a gentle, respectful way, to get their brains used to the feeling and "trusting" that I won't push them past anything comfortable for them, before exploring the hands/fingers.
