    There are specific hand and wrist exercises that are designed to help Parkinson’s disease patients with fine motor skills like handwriting and dressing, as well as improving flexibility and dexterity.

    Check out this video from Invigorate Physical Therapy and Wellness in which a physical therapist demonstrates some simple hand and wrist exercises that may be useful for people suffering from Parkinson’s disease: “7 Hand Exercises to Help People With Parkinson’s Disease

    Do you usually do hand and wrist exercises? Have you tried any of these? Have they helped to improve your fine motor skills?

    Love this video, I will have to add this to my daily routine… sometimes I feel the list is endless LOL.  An occupational therapist had given me green putty to work my hands and also, suggested I pick marbles out of a container of rice..
