Neurological Rehabilitation Exercises
Fine Motor Exercises
Fine motor exercises train the small, precise movements of the hand and fingers needed for writing, buttoning, eating and using a phone. They are used after stroke, in Parkinson's disease, after hand injuries and with children who have motor delays.
What it does
Dexterity depends on strength, sensation and precise control. Graded tasks retrain each.
It is a regular part of rehab plans for stroke, Parkinson's disease and cerebral palsy, and it features in our neuro physiotherapy programmes.
How to do it
- Pick up coins, beads or beans and place them in a container.
- Button and unbutton a shirt on a table.
- Roll, pinch and pull therapy putty.
- Stack small blocks or turn cards over.
- Trace shapes and letters with a pen.
How much
10 to 15 minutes, 1 to 2 times a day.
Stop and check with us if
- Hand pain or cramping persists.
Medical note
These instructions are general guidance, not a personal prescription. If you have a recent injury or surgery, a diagnosed condition, or symptoms such as numbness, weakness or dizziness, get assessed before starting. Stop and seek advice if pain increases sharply or you feel unwell.
