Abstract
- In an attempt to achieve functional grasp and release, the intrinsic muscles are frequently a secondary goal or completely over looked. Their importance in fine motor coordination is significant for performing daily tasks. Very few therapy tools are designed to help in this area. This group of therapists has nicely designed a tool to assist in strengthening the intrinsics.
