Question | Answer |
Biomechanical FOR | allow the client to engage in occupations that would require a joint movement and strength and endurance |
Orthosis (Splints)

|
- aid in stabilization of certain structures - prevent deformity at a certain joint or structure in the UE or LE - allow and facilitate healing after injury |
ROM Arc | - targets ROM - transfer the rings from one end to the other - demand on the use of the joints at the shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist, hand |
Therapy Cones

|
- very versatile - client sit in a certain way and place the therapeutic cone in a certain position - ask the client to get the therapeutic cones and transfer it to where you are |
Finger Ladder | as the client moves up the ladder, there would be an increase in the ROM of the shoulder and elbow |
Shoulder Ladder | - targets the ROM of the shoulder and elbow - placed on an inclined position to increase demand - wrist/red weight can be attached to target strength |
Bilateral Sander | - can place it flat on the table on the shoulder level - can raise it on an inclined position (with gravity resistance) - can put weight - improving UE coordination and strength |
Limb Skate | - target strength and ROM - ask the client to move across the table depending on the ROM or movement that you are targeting |
Pronation / Supination Wheel | - targets pronation and supination |
Wrist Roller | - targeting movements of the wrist (flex/extend, ulnar/radial deviation) - different sizes to accommodate the different sizes of hand of clients (larger or smaller grasps) |
Graded Clothespin

|
- targets the pinchers and muscles of the hand - different colors = different weight - bar helps with ROM of shoulder and elbow |
Exercise Bands | - different colors depending on the amount of resistance - think of the target muscle group and position the client in a certain way where you will be able to isolate these muscles |
Wrist or Ankle Weights | - targets strength - put on the client's arm, wrist, ankle - typically used with other modalities |
E-Z Exer Board | - Resistive finger flexion - Extension and lateral prehension - Supination and Pronation - Wrist flexion and extension |
Digiflex | - improve on the grip strength of the client - exercise for the muscles of the grip using the whole hand - isolated movements of the fingers |
Exercise Putty (Theraputty) | - can use it for different resistance, different movement, targeting different muscles of the fingers |
Power Web | - working on the muscles of the hand - flexion to target grip muscles - extension for the extension of the fingers - different colors = different resistance |
Dumbbell | - think of the muscle group that you want to specifically work on or isolate - mind the position of the client as the exercise is done - targets |
Arm Ergometer | - target endurance fort the UE of the client - can adjust the level of resistance and time |
Peg Boards | - apply the ROM and strength and endurance in a certain movement of the hands or fingers - manipulate the peg board and placing it on the board - sometimes put inside the theraputty = strength |
Activity Boards | - different designs of manipulation boards - ROM, strength, endurance - there are different materials that are commonly seen at home - having the clients practice the use of the hand or UE in a more goal-oriented activity |
Pipe Tree

|
- have a model that the client would have to follow - fine motor skills, ROM, eye-hand coordination and stimulation through assembling and matching exercises |
Hand Helper | - ROM and strength of the hand |
Sensory Bins | - Used for loss of sensation - Associated with neurological - Different textures and consistencies (from very soft and smooth to hard and rough |
