Clients are guided through structured activities such as grasping, releasing, reaching, and manipulating objects, all tailored to real-life tasks like feeding, dressing, writing, and work activities.
This therapy is ideal for individuals experiencing learned non-use of the affected hand and aims to promote functional recovery, independence in daily activities, and long-term use of the weaker hand in everyday life.
