GLIA CONNECTTM combines individual movements into functional patterns. Reach, grasp, clap, throw and catch. We explore ways to encourage connected movements to make your everyday activities a little easier.
What you will learn
This program teaches you how to create functional patterns that use your hand, wrist, elbow and upper arm. The sequence of movements teaches you how to develop smaller fine motor movements like grip, twist, squeeze, pass and rotate and move to manipulate everyday objects that involve reach, grasp, push, pull and roll (and many more).
The program helps you stay motivated as you see progress happen over the weeks with new challenges unveiled along the way. By balancing recovery and compensation strategies, we make movements possible to achieve with adaptations and tips that allow you to practise movement while feeling positive even if you make mistakes.
This program may also help reduce unwanted tightness, increased tone and stiffness associated with overworking bigger muscles to compensate for smaller ones.
The program includes a step-by-step followable workout that is side-specific and can be worked at your own pace as many times as you wish. The program progresses from easy to more difficult techniques and dosages.
