In this video, Nathan from Skills and Wellness demonstrates a progressive walking routine that retrains balance, step control, and coordination using clinically grounded occupational therapy and physical therapy principles. This routine targets: Stroke-related leg stiffness and heaviness Poor step control and foot dragging Balance loss during standing and walking Gait changes from Parkinson’s, MS, or neurological injury Fall risk in older adults Each exercise focuses on restoring how the brain and body coordinate movement — not just strengthening muscles. This approach helps retrain safer, smoother walking patterns that carry over into daily life. This video is designed for: Stroke survivors, Parkinson’s patients, seniors, caregivers, and OT/PT professionals supporting neurological recovery at home. 📘 Facebook Title (Reels) About Skills and Wellness Welcome to Skills and Wellness, your personal guide to Occupational Therapy.
