As always thank you for what you do and taking the time to put these series together for everyone. Also wanted to let you know that since my love one saw you on TV, you got her attention. Thanks to that, you have help both us but most important he on understand how to get back. She admires you and is always checking and digesting to later on do things. She is been able to have her Critical Thinking skills back to figure out things about neuroplasticity. Be good, God continue to Bless you and your team. When things get better we will stop by.
I know that much of your videos stems from working with stroke issues, but I have to say that I have all of the things with vaulting gait, drop foot and a bad knee. I've learned a lot. The main thing I learned is how to learn how to walk again. I didn't realize I had forgotten how to walk because the knee pain is so bad. The knee pain is still bad, but I am concentrating on bending the knee when walking and stretching. Thank you for sharing. This is life-changing.
I can only grip a walker on my left side with my thumb and index finger. My wife came up with the idea of wrapping the left side grip with double sided tape. I use a baby wipe(or wash cloth with just water)to clean off the tape when it looses its stickiness every day or so. She only has to change the tape every two or three weeks.
I always wanted someone godsend like you as my brother/sister/life partner/as mom.. you are doing great job.. thanks a lot for helping the needy .. love you doc😘😘😘
You are the best! 6 years 4/13 SAH stroke survivor with balance, spasticity and gait issues, among others. I might have posted once. I have been making quicker progress than before with a 60uP Balance Training System. My only interest and intention for this comment is to help fellow strugglers.
I particularly like the Walker attachment which I think will help me on the treadmill. My affected hand sometimes shoots forward switching it off unexpectedly.
#gaittools Thank you for your videos- they are very inspiring. My injury occurred at 12yrs old, I am now 38 (tbi/brain aneurism/stroke/brain surgery) Your exercises inspire me to keep going! I even want to take a trip to your clinic to see you in action! These videos are just what I need at this stage in my recovery. Keep them coming!
I couldn't agree with you more on the hemiwalker & the nonuse of the affected hand. I learned the hard way. It's been 3 years now but I realize that now.
Excellent thanks. I use a resistance band and crab walk up and down my hallway. Great for strengthening and balance. Thanks for another great video. 🇦🇺
Thank-You! Tara you are the best! You talk briefly about GAIT POLES. How you prefer them to a walker. Could you please explain how to transition from a walker to gait poles, safely. It’s hard to imagine how these can help me balance. Thank-You! ❤❤❤
Thank You So Much! I just did a 5 km Race and ending up falling down! Luckily just the left side of my face and knee was bruised and scraped. I will use the Duct Tape Method since I did have a little catch on the ground. That is what caused me to trip. I will also get a booty strap. I have problems bending my knee they want to go straight legged. They also sometimes have a swing to them. The Duct tape and the booty strap is for the left leg. My next 5km is next month. This will give me some time to practice my new tools. Thank You again for the Great Ideas! The next day I had another Race and I was a little scared. I lifted my knees to make sure I got the clearance. There was a little slow down. Not the most effective Running Style but it kept me upright the whole time so it was Great. I am Very Excited to take your advise and use the 2 tools!
Thank you so so much for another video . I keep waiting to get more from you . Very informative as I’m working a lot to improve my gait . I have drop food and wear brace to walk . I was never suggested to wear night brace . In of your videos you had mentioned to wear night brace and I notice my foot turned inside while sleeping. Do you think it would be worth to wear it now after about nine years of stroke . Again thank you for your help and support to people like me . Thank you is a small word but yes I’m indebted to you .
Thank you for watching and for sharing your story! Generally speaking, a night splint will keep the muscles lengthened on the back of the lower leg and/or prevent them for getting shorter. I hope that helps
I recently bought the resistance band that attaches to a waist band- oh my goodness! So helpful! I put it on and do some exercises - then get on the elliptical- it makes a difference
Yes my ankle rolls and I had physical therapy for 4yrs and didn't get better so the thing you are teaching me I like it thanks again for helping me I have bought almost everything you said thanks I will keep working on this exercise
0:42 your face when you said "tools" brought a smile to my face and I had to go back and see it again. 🤣 5:40 a simple plastic bag from fruit/grocery store would probably also work. 6:40 maybe a length of the elastic band. It would also have a but of "give"
So awesome to see your video. Trying hard to help a nice man with an ataxic R UE and LE with a flaccid L side. Great tools on a budget for A PT and for the patients. Thanks sooooo much!!!!
Thanks a million Dr Tara , I manage to stop my elbow spasticity by just holding my walking stick behind my gluts to walk. Its gone tomorrow. I do stretch the elbow straight to loosen it too
Thank you, this video is so useful, the tools and explanations are things that have never been explained to me before, having had a stroke over a year and a half ago🙏🏼
#gaittools. Excellent video Dr. Tobias! I'll be looking into the 1st item you mentioned. My primary walking issue is my knee pops out to the left when I go into swing phase with the uninvolved leg. This results in sharp glute pain. After about 20 mins of walking the hip pain is so intense I can barely move. I'm sure this is partly due to leg-supporting muscles not firing and also to the uneven leg length resulting from the AFO I wear. I notice at night when I am walk without shoes or the AFO, I don't have this problem. The involved leg is straight when I plant it. Thanks for all the suggestions. Love your channel!
I had a hemorrhagic stroke 3 months ago. I spent 8 days in ICU then 3 weeks in an inpatient rehab hospital. I am currently going to outpatient rehab twice a week and do my exercises diligently at home. I was diagnosed with foot drop and my foot rolls to the inside. Can you have both foot drop and spasticity? I have normal sensation in my foot and ankle but my foot is paralyzed. I am slowly beginning to move toes just a little except for big toe which stays angled upward. My foot is becoming more contracted. Your video gave me insight to more exercises and tips. Thanks so much for your video.
#gaittools thank you. Your videos have so much information that have given me understanding, "tools," visual guides and encouragement that I didn't have prior. Since I'm not receiving any therapy and the pandemic has hindered my ability to get moving more, this training from you is all the education I have and vital to getting me back into rehab eventually. Thank you Tara! My two questions rn before I can jump in are your recommendations for some good women's footwear that works with custom AFO's. I haven't used my brace in almost two years because I can't find any shoes I can put on myself ( am affected on left side). Help! My shoes keep coming off my foot and I'm dragging a lot. Canes without four feet prongs are of no use to me, as are walkers cause if I seize I end up just falling. Lastly, I'm confused when you say involved and uninvolved limb. Sorry, my cognitive issues make it hard to follow your instruction unless I can keep it straight or you have a good visual for a particular lesson. Otherwise, I hope you keep doing these amazing videos!! Your tone and patience and easy manner make them a pleasure to watch!
My problem with height is because of my AFO, that made my involved leg longer and that caused knee and hip pain on my uninvolved side. I went to a store that specializes in foot problems. I was able to get sandals with Velcro closures, extra wide width, and a removable in sole. That evened out the length and made it much easier to walk.
Thank you for your efforts to help us Please I have a stiffed knee and ankle joint, because I didn't flex for long time after fracture surgery. What can I do for my knee to bend .
Thank you for these great tools! Can you please provide the link to the knee immobilizer you demonstrated in this video? Also please share more #gaittools and #standingtools for those who are still working on the sit-to-stand phase. Thank you!
Thanks for the good ideas, my disorder is not big, so I manage to improvise, like tool No. 8. I taped the shoe around the shoe. It doesn’t look nice, but it helps as I walk around the house and yard.
I am glad you took yesterday off! Happy belated Easter. I enjoyed your video and definitely can use several of the tools you described. Look forward to the next one. Thank you Dr. Tobias and your hair looks so pretty today.
I broke my hip in February 2023 and am still having trouble walking smoothly without a cane. I just tried putting my heel lift in my good side instead of the injured side and I think that is going to help me put more weight on the bad leg. I feel like my injured leg is shorter and that is why I had the heel lift on the injured side but it feels like my gait is smoother with it on the un-injured leg.
What is the one that I saw in a video and I can’t keep track of which videos that I see these tools in There’s one about the wheelchair there’s a hand dressed for the stroke arm for the wheelchair I wanted to try to use it for my dad for the couch but I can’t find the link because I don’t remember which video I was watching Is there a way to get a listing of all the videos that you have with all the tools that you use inside the video
Please provide me the link for Swedish knee brace I m not able to find it in India 🇮🇳🙏 You are really a big support for the group of some rehab patients. Thank you so much for thinking all the time for the easy life for these patients
Hello Dr Tobias , I need to start from scratch on my gait . Where do I start ? ( I don’t wear a boot or use a cane ) My right side is affected and I am right dominant . Thank you ( was right dominant ? )
Hi Dr. I am new to your channel. Just came from my neurologist and waiting for an MRI. My problem is a tilting to the left side causing me a balance issue. I call this my drunken gait lol. I use a cane indoors and a walker when out and about. Is there any exercises that would help with this tilting? Thanks.
Our baby at 2 years old is diagnosed of Cerebellar Ataxia. We found it very difficult to do the therapy considering his age. He used to be a very happy and energetic kid. Hope you can help us in his condition. A little advise and prayers will do.
I would love to see some exercises for the arm and leg that was not affected by the stroke .my right arm was not affected but I was a lefty before and my right arm gets so exhausted because I was did in my hand gets so exhausted to the point where it hurts I would love to know how to build up the strength and that alarm and I can use my left arm thank God but I can't feel it at all none whatsoever and it doesn't work naturally I have to tell my brain what to do like open my hand to get a drink call let open my hand and set it down open it so if you can send me some tips and things I would love to have some ideas on how to strength in my right arm so it's not in pain as much
#GaitTools. My left leg / foot swings out and off center. I have spinal compression and this has been one of the more noticeable side effects. My knees and ankles shake when walking too.
Love the ankle skii. I made a hand splint by using my large makeup pallet and some large elastic bands, it keeps my hand open while I sleep. Happy Easter Tara. #gaittools
Hi Tamara! Thanks for sharing this! I love the creativity. Yes, most people have many things around their home that can be used as tools 😊 I gotta start looking (with more curiosity) at the things I use to get ready in the morning. 😊
I am a parcel quad and have C3-C7 fusion. So many things to work on. Knee won't extend on swing through for a heal strike. I have spasticity and don't know if it is the hamstring stopping it or quad straight. I love your videos and appreciate your assistance.
I got very interested in the swedish knee cage! I am 5 years post stroke and still fighting with knee hyperextension. Could you tell us more about its therapeutic use, please?
Thank you so much for your informative videos. I had a stroke 3 months ago and am ambulating without an assistive device now. I walk with my arms extended and use arm swing. I am very fearful of falling because I don’t think my affected arm will extend and my hand hit the ground to protect my face. Does the protective extension reflex come back on the affected arm? Thank you very much.
Man for 10 years I've been looking for someone who describes exactly what I'm going through! Do you have Clinics in South Florida? I'm willing to go up to Orlando I need this fixed asap . Great channel
My PT mentioned the Shoe lift once, but he didn't bring it up again, so I didn't buy it. My foot clearance is okay most of the time, so maybe he didn't think it was an issue after that session.
You've been a Godsend during this pandemic for those without insurance or access to therapy. Wings earned!
Very Valuable information
Absolutely!! bless Tara for taking the time to do this😬and providing links for helpful tools she has tried and used👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼🎉😬
Absolutely! thanks for your time I no longer have access to a therapist and can’t get to Orlando so the exercise suggestions are a Godsend😬

Hey Lynne do y use your walker on a treadmill?

Once again Dr. Tobias u created another great video I intend on getting that knee brace because it looks like something I need thank you so much!!
But my question is, do u have to have measurements for your leg?
That is an excellent question! I found a sizing chart at the site: www.dme-direct.com/swedish-knee-cage
Excellent thanks. I use a resistance band and crab walk up and down my hallway. Great for strengthening and balance. Thanks for another great video. 🇦🇺
Yes! I love crawling activities 😊

Love the ankle skii. I made a hand splint by using my large makeup pallet and some large elastic bands, it keeps my hand open while I sleep. Happy Easter Tara. #gaittools
Hi Tamara! Thanks for sharing this! I love the creativity. Yes, most people have many things around their home that can be used as tools 😊 I gotta start looking (with more curiosity) at the things I use to get ready in the morning. 😊
Thank you, can you post a video on devices to help with foot drop.
I am a parcel quad and have C3-C7 fusion. So many things to work on. Knee won't extend on swing through for a heal strike. I have spasticity and don't know if it is the hamstring stopping it or quad straight. I love your videos and appreciate your assistance.
I got very interested in the swedish knee cage! I am 5 years post stroke and still fighting with knee hyperextension. Could you tell us more about its therapeutic use, please?
Thank you so much for your informative videos. I had a stroke 3 months ago and am ambulating without an assistive device now. I walk with my arms extended and use arm swing. I am very fearful of falling because I don’t think my affected arm will extend and my hand hit the ground to protect my face. Does the protective extension reflex come back on the affected arm? Thank you very much.
so good thankyou mam tara, i dont skip ads
Could you do a video about this thing that I use called a massage gun? And show some me some bicep and leg stretches that i could add.
#gaittools. This is a great video. Thank you very much.
Hi, for the walker attachment I can just use any strap as well right?
Man for 10 years I've been looking for someone who describes exactly what I'm going through! Do you have Clinics in South Florida?
I'm willing to go up to Orlando I need this fixed asap . Great channel
My PT mentioned the Shoe lift once, but he didn't bring it up again, so I didn't buy it. My foot clearance is okay most of the time, so maybe he didn't think it was an issue after that session.
