0.89 -> hi I'm Bob from physical therapists
3.449 -> throughout any physical therapy together
5.13 -> we are the most famous physical
6.42 -> therapist on the internet and I'll
8.01 -> kidding of course Bob Brabham death is
10.71 -> for a while know it took a little
12.48 -> sabbatical for a couple three weeks so
14.67 -> yeah let's get going they're going to
16.35 -> walk about strokes okay and one of the
19.529 -> problems with strokes after the stroke
21.72 -> is balance and I'm going to show you
23.939 -> some balance exercises you can do at
26.43 -> home after you've recovered and this is
29.34 -> for people who are already to the point
31.009 -> they're lucky enough where they
32.79 -> recovered where they can walk okay after
34.71 -> Joaquin is unsteady
36.48 -> all right what I say all right on a
38.85 -> fairly safe generally safe public
40.86 -> probably using a cane it may not even be
42.989 -> user to camera there higher level
44.82 -> alright and you can do this for balance
46.77 -> even if you haven't had a stroke okay
48.719 -> okay and you understand all makes sense
50.789 -> as we get into this so you remember from
53.46 -> school the three things that hold your
54.84 -> balance Bob sure what vision yes
58.109 -> proprioception yes vestibular you've got
60.359 -> it okay we're going to talk to that
62.039 -> we're going to tax all those and we do
63.69 -> have a volunteer volunteer from the
65.489 -> audience today and it's a cow Callie
68.67 -> Callie you're a caller Karen no Kayla
71.549 -> Callie Callie come on in sorry sorry
74.939 -> sorry well Sally is a student a junior
78.049 -> undergrad for just amazing camera okay
81.42 -> why don't you stand here now what I want
84.24 -> you to do this is first phase you're
86.64 -> going to bring your feet together so
88.02 -> your ankles are touch and now some
89.4 -> people may not get that because of your
91.35 -> knees and your and they had me but just
93.03 -> bring your feet as close as you can
94.29 -> you're going straight ahead and you're
96.06 -> going to cross your arms just like this
98.1 -> okay and then now if someone has poor
101.64 -> balance you may have to have someone up
103.11 -> both side so Bob you can stand there and
104.97 -> this is how you would be if someone's
106.89 -> off in their little shape I would say
108.84 -> they have a belt around yeah we could
110.49 -> even go with the DOE value better
112.38 -> believe it so but if someone is
114.09 -> comfortable from the hospital you
115.29 -> probably have a belt okay and this way
118.38 -> you can do it one person because I know
120.54 -> you're going to
121.15 -> people yeah so okay so here we go
124.78 -> and you're going to do this for 30
126.31 -> seconds now the time isn't necessary but
130.03 -> we're going to use a standard 30 seconds
131.92 -> and where you get this from the folding
133.51 -> dog test in the sensory organizational
137.29 -> test which is too scientific but these
139.21 -> are good quality bounce test and we have
142.57 -> the devices do the sole now 30 seconds
146.2 -> no swing everything looks good then you
148.75 -> go to the next higher phase and we're
150.76 -> going to close your eyes so that takes
152.71 -> the vision out of the picture right a
154.84 -> lot of times and I don't Bob and I have
156.91 -> seen this a lot where all of a sudden
158.23 -> people start swaying when they believe I
160.54 -> was swam yeah you all last night okay
164.68 -> all right and you're going to look at
165.88 -> your watch or maybe have your clock on
167.44 -> the wall and hold that for 30 seconds if
169.54 -> they're doing well with that okay the
172.75 -> next thing is the pro pro chefs
177.31 -> proprioception this is a knee pad I got
179.62 -> from home they recommend a three inch
182.11 -> foam pad for the official tests but
184.42 -> anything that's soft and squishy and
186.58 -> it's going to throw off their bounce so
188.41 -> you're going to stand on this okay and
191.79 -> you feel that squishy makes things work
194.8 -> a little bit harder okay and if they're
197.08 -> standing with their eyes open then their
199.12 -> eyes closed okay energy level - yeah you
204.91 -> can see the angles working down here
206.8 -> exactly okay now if you really want to
209.44 -> get more official that dome is what they
212.62 -> use so you don't close your eyes your
214.39 -> eyes are open and they're accepting
215.95 -> information I see but the dome for me
218.44 -> makes too hard to make so the next best
220.42 -> thing is take a pair of sunglasses put
223.09 -> some tape over them and here can you put
225.64 -> those on another one and now she can
227.95 -> keep her eyes open so it's more relaxed
230.26 -> at a normal sensation there especially
232.06 -> as someone with a stroke may have
233.47 -> problems maintaining eye closure and
235.33 -> this makes it easier they use for a doll
237.31 -> you know if they make this kind of a
240.31 -> paper mache thing Beibei I thought about
244.36 -> putting a paper bag over okay very good
249.13 -> so the next step if they're doing really
252.73 -> well with that
253.88 -> okay off here feet together again we're
257.239 -> going to start all over
258.32 -> eyes open close here if she's steady
261.02 -> here and then proudly at this point now
263.21 -> you're going to let's go down here
264.95 -> you're going to take your right foot and
266.93 -> you're going to touch with your toe
268.78 -> right there
270.38 -> now touch straight out to the side bring
273.47 -> it back to the starting point
275.03 -> and now see if you touch across and back
278.87 -> to the starting point and that's
280.82 -> straight behind you back to the starting
283.13 -> point okay
283.88 -> so it's one two three four kind of like
287.87 -> dancing okay but this is going to be
290.18 -> harder so you may have to hold onto that
291.83 -> belt the first time they're doing it if
293.45 -> you have a cane that you might want to
294.92 -> hold the cane okay go ahead and do it
296.87 -> one two three four you passed it okay he
302.54 -> looks the hardest yeah now we're going
304.28 -> to go to this put these on the next step
307.28 -> up yeah three going across yeah okay go
311.63 -> ahead not quite there you go - and she's
316.64 -> still doing very good now it's being a
318.29 -> little bit more difficult in the same
320.06 -> set up I want you to reach out as far as
322.61 -> you possibly can you're going to bend
324.71 -> this knee a little bit and reach out
326.72 -> really far just touch your toe go ahead
329.26 -> touch way over well she's got great
335.03 -> balance and back okay you know what they
338.72 -> can do with the other side ah good idea
340.52 -> about this tax or panel gap see she's
344.33 -> already in more trouble people get me go
345.98 -> their dominant yeah see she's kind of
351.88 -> a normal individual you'll see that they
354.55 -> have a one side that's better than the
356.26 -> other this is where the therapist really
357.85 -> start to have fun let's go ahead Bob hey
360.28 -> here we go this is the ultimate on the
363.34 -> foam
364.03 -> we got the dome eyes covered and now
366.34 -> let's do the same thing reach over the
368.02 -> right flood there you go look at this
370.63 -> left angled work and this is where
372.34 -> you're definitely going to have someone
373.36 -> hold it on you yeah and you do have to
377.11 -> be careful on the phone if they have a
379.12 -> weak egg right you won't want to do it
381.61 -> because you could roll it alternate yeah
383.41 -> okay now do the other leg we might as
385.99 -> well be complete she's getting smarter
392.11 -> on that one
393.15 -> how old are you she's 20 years old
397.06 -> healthy young 20 year old and that gives
399.07 -> you a baseline for that but if you have
400.51 -> someone after stroke you're probably
402.1 -> wanting to get to the fall yeah so you
404.35 -> go by the individual saw potential BC
407.32 -> have a belt on them to people if needed
409.69 -> and it's a great exercise okay you want
412.36 -> to sit down you can sit down with us to
413.68 -> finish off all right all right thanks a
