Pressure is placed on the ball through the web. With the elbow locked you can get some really good resistance throughout the upper extremity all the way up to the shoulder. ✨Placing the powerweb over the container like this makes it easier to engage the entire upper extremity in this exercise, and doesn’t require a strong second hand to hold it in place! 2️⃣Place the medicine ball onto the putty. Push the ball down into the putty as much as you can until you hit the table.

Eli Yovits OTR/L, CHT on Instagram: "✨Wrist exercises with the mediball✨ ☄️This is a 2 lb mediball. All exercises can be graded down by using a regular ball with no extra weight, or graded up by increasing the weight in the balance. 1️⃣Weight bearing onto the ball on a table with circles in both directions. You can get weight bearing benefits and some wrist extension 2️⃣Grade up by doing the same exercise on the wall. You need increased shoulder and wrist stability for this 3️⃣At the end of the last exercise, lock your shoulder and elbow and slowly roll your fingers down the ball until you have composite extension stretch. Now you have weight bearing, stabilization, and wrist extension stretch all in one! #handtherapy #handrehab #occupationaltherapy #physicaltherapy #physiotherapy #fi
Adam Griffin on Instagram: "An amazing little balance exercise that boosts both motor coordination and self-regulation! 💪🧠 Perfect for helping kids stay cool and composed while improving their physical skills. In the video, you'll see me use a small weighted ball (1lb) as it's slightly squishy, more stable and easier to contorl. Then, you'll see me use a small tennis ball for an older kiddo for a significantly greater challenge. #BalanceTraining #MotorSkills #SelfRegulation #occupationaltherapy #schoolbasedot #activitiesforkids"
Rachel & Jessica on Instagram: "This multi-sensory activity works on: ⭐ Postural control and balance ⭐ Ocular motor skills ⭐ Visual motor skills ⭐ Force modulation ⭐ Sequencing and memory ⭐ Impulse control . Create a color visual chart. You can do this with a computer or hand make it. . Place colored items on the floor, like foam puzzle pieces or pieces of colored paper, that match the colors on the chart. . Have the child stand on a balance item, like a bosu or a balance beam. . Using a ball that has good bounce, like a racquetball, have them practice bouncing and catching with both hands. . Then help them read the color chart and as they read each color, bounce and catch the ball on the matching colored item on the floor. . There are lots of ways to modify this activity to meet specific
