Hula Hoop Bus Driving Exercise:
Imagining the hula hoop is the steering wheel of a bus that she's driving down a winding road, Lora mobilizes her shoulder, straightens her elbow, and uses her abdominal rotators and core muscles. This stroke recovery exercise also helps sitting balance and weight shifting as she move toward then away from her affected side. In the beginning, Lora used a strap to hold her affected hand in place, but she no long has the need to do this.
