Control Arm Tremors and Shaking Exercises For Parkinson’s Disease

- I know it is so frustrating when your arm and hand shakes or when you have uncontrollable tremors. But what if you can do exercises that will control your arms from shaking or trembling?
In this video I will show you effective arm exercises if you have Parkinson's disease and is experiencing arm and hand tremors.
When your arms are shaking or when you have tremors, it is very difficult to do your daily activities. You might spill your drink or you might miss your mouth when you’re feeding yourself or when you need to sign your name it is difficult to control your pen.
With occupational therapy, it is important to control the tremors so you can do your daily tasks easier. Together with the medication prescribed by your doctor, the exercises I will show you will help you control your shaking or tremors.
Before we start doing the exercises try to record yourself while you are drinking from my cup. Or, try to write your name on a piece of paper. Then we will compare your performance after doing the exercises.
First exercise is swinging up. Cross your arms in your lap and rapidly swing your arms up. Do this 20 times.
Second exercise is swinging down. Bring your arms crossed in front of your face then rapidly swing down 20 times.
Third exercise is elbow flicking. Start with your hands almost touching your shoulders then quickly straight in your entire arm like you are flicking your forearm. Do this 20 times.
Fourth exercise is wrist flicking. What is your palms facing up bend your wrist upwards then flick your entire hand downwards. Do this 20 times.
Fifth exercise is also wrist flicking but this time your palms are facing down bring your. Fingers up and then flick them downwards. Do this 20 times.
Sixth exercise is wrist shaking. It is just like you’re shaking off water from your hands when you don’t have a hand towel. Do this 20 times.
Seventh exercise is finger flicking. This time you are going to pretend like you’re freaking water from your hands towards somebody in front of you. Put your thumbs over the finger nails of the rest of your fingers. Quickly release your fingers to flick them. Do this 20 times.
Now it is time to test if the exercises are effective. Get your cup again and try to bring it to your mouth see if the tremors are lesser. If you wrote your name before doing the exercises, write your name again and see if it is more legible.

You know, I don't have Parkinson's but I do have shaky hands. I wanted to be an engineer for so long and when I got the opportunity, They gave me my grades and said my math was good and stuff, but my practical work was a bit below average. I was really upset and didn't know what to do. But i found this video and practice these for about a week and i see significant improvement. I genuinely cant thank you enough
That inspired me to do more videos to help more people. Thanks for this. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much for this teaching. Do not have Parkinson's but I have a nasty familial or essential tremor on my right hand. I did the exersizes and it has helped. My writing was less shaky..shake... Will continue doing them. First time I come across this very useful video. Thank you so much!❤
You are welcome
Peace. 80 yrs old. Started having problems with writing. It's not only the writing but the tension that comes with not being able to control the hand especially in public. Hated signing documents. Stressful. Did your exercises. Immediate improvement. Question: what is schedule? Once a day or 3/4 times a day? Can I overdo it? Thanks bro for your work. This has been awesome. I hope your video gets more play with seniors or whoever is suffering from this condition. I'm a believer and have subscribed. Thanks.
Before you need to do things that require fine motor coordination like writing or eating. 3x a day should be enough. 20 reps each exercise. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you so much Nathan for the wonderful Exercise and very impressive, I will try to do it. l'm a stroke patient 2 years struggling with hand shaking
Bro… I’ve had ataxia with essential tremors since I was a teen, weirdest thing I have felt in a long time. Before I wrote the second time after the exercises, my conditioning felt the same, and I still felt like I was going to scribble my name, BUT I wrote very eligible,INSANE !!! Thanks Brother I owe you one
Wow. That is an inspiring story. I hope there will be more people who will see and benifit from the video
Thanks for your wonderful practical demonstration for hand trimmer recovery.

Hi I've had essential tremor since I was around 13, I'm 27 now, as much as I appreciate the video please can you do another one for best exercise with weights/resistance training I could do at the gym as I feel this will provide a more permanent solution in reducing the tremors, hopefully.
Jack. I have essential tremors and the occupational therapist has me using weights with my exercise. I go twice a week for a one hour session each time. The weights work and my condition is improving. I I have had the tremors for years and finally addressed the issue.
@Ken Shorter what kind of exercise is that ur doing i
THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟 DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜

Hello, I have been facing this problem for a few months now, and it has started to interfere with my daily life now. I am only 17, and I am a fit person. I face this hand trembling problem only when I try to hold something light, or even keep my hands at rest without any support, as my hands starts vibrating.I am a bit worried now, as this prob is generally faced by elder people and it's making me difficult to do my daily work. So if there are any other advices or solutions for my problem , pls do let me know. Thanks a lot for reading this till the end, and have a great day 😀😀
It's a crazy feeling especially at this age Im exactly the same as every single word you said except I just got diagnosed with degenerative disc diesese and I think it's related. Good luck brother I hope you're problems go away without issue
I am also suffering the same. This started post-COVID !
I am only 20.
@@sanjeevdutta619 Bro sad to hear that. I would recommend you to buy a hand gripper (if you dont have already ) and do exercises with that. I have been doing that for 3 weeks now and I already saw improvement. My hands dont tremble that often now as it used to do before. I hope you will also be benefitted from that 😀
@@яєи-ч9и Bro how are you now? And about my situation it's better than before as my hands dont tremble that much now.
@@Galaxy-lr6py That's so kind of you. For answering people. Sometimes people go forever without an answer. Did you get the thing we're not allowed to talk about? You know the ah ... Jabberwocky..?
I'm so happy you're finding strength again. When you say a hand grip do you mean the old style or something soft to work? ..
I'm learning how to play guitar, but my hand shaking makes this task difficult. You have my thanks, I'm going to practice daily.
Rock on! 🤘
After your exercise I hold my cup it's great 👍
Wohoooo. That is awesome

Thanks Nathan 😊
I also started to get seizures. I was in the hospital for over a week. Getting a seizure at work. I never passed out or had a seizure in my 54 years. Until this year. But, I did get some weird type panic attacks and my blood pressure shot way up 227/170. And that was scary. I never done steroids or hgh. I did not need to. In the hospital, my blood pressure stayed a little bit high as usual since high school. But, now I have these tremors since a little into my 40s! And they are getting worse. I had no diagnosis of Parkinson’s. As I said, I was in the hospital. I was in the hospital at age 6 getting my tonsils taken out. Now, 54, I was taken to the hospital for seizures. Very weird to me. Not an enjoyable vacation from work
I am sorry about that. I hope these exercises will help control the tremors. But it is best that you know the cause. It could be side effect of a medication or something else. Please see your neurologist
Three quick inhalation ..... ..... . Yes it helps. Thank you.
Very nice exercises
Thank you Nathan
You are welcome
Thank you
Very informative
😊thanks Nathan
So i have essential tremor, and thought this would help i only did 20 wrist flaps and my hands had increased stability but like 5 min after they went beserk and started shaking 10x there normal rate it scared the hell out of me and still does i hope i recover because if i dont i wont be able to work or fo anything it gave me "i need to be on disability trenors" so please be careful when doing this. This has happened to me in the past anytime my hand muscles are overly put to work and i was fine the next day. Idk if thats just me but i wont ever do hand exercises again.
I enjoy doing exercise with you.
I would appreciate uodates on your progress. Thank you too
I immediately subscribed without trying the exercise😅
Try them out. And share it to your facebook groups
Thank you so much sir for this. It's very helpful ☺️
You are welcome. :-)
