@XboxGamePass My son rewrote his letter to santa when he found gang beasts was coming on game pass, as it had been one of the things on his list. Now he is going to be gutted. Any chance of it going back on sale price? We didn’t buy as advertised coming on game pass.

@npennyclinic @LondonACPIN I really enjoyed session and can’t wait to hear more. Gave me lots to go away and think about (and try!)

We have just heard from @The_HCPC that the CPD audit process for physiotherapists is being cancelled with immediate effect to enable the workforce to focus on the coronavirus outbreak. More details to follow.

[Sonya @LWNeuroPhysio]

@karenphysiocouk I have been wondering this. I am contacting everyone prior to visiting to see if they still want me visiting and if I can bring anything they might need. Am contemplating possibility of video calls but too many need hands on assistance.

Another amazing performance by our Bollywood dance group who scooped 1st place in the @WoldsSSP competition this morning, held @Butlins Skegness. Full of energy and colour, they wowed the judges! @LaceyFieldLouth @ActiveLincs

Anyone know any physios near #Lincoln (maybe #Nottingham or #Sheffield) with good experience in treating people with cervical dystonia? #neurophysio

[Sonya @LWNeuroPhysio]

Experimenting with taping to supplement NMES for finger, wrist and thumb extension. It is stabilising thumb, enabling grasp and release of objects with less hands on assistance. There is positioning benefits post session and provides a route towards self practice. Any tips/advice

Jubilant scenes! We’re so #proud to be returning to @LaceyFieldLouth as East Midlands Regional Champions 2020! @ActiveLincs @WoldsSSP @WellspringAT @tgbdo

@karenphysiocouk @pt_neuro I like also trying to include weight bearing activities as well, so 4pt kneeling, or forward lean, etc, but notice when trying to position hand how much input 1st two digits seek to stabilise and how it effects whole hands posture and activity.

[Sonya @LWNeuroPhysio]

Picking therapists brains. Working with UL with a background of tone and grip response but limited selective activity, especially extension. Thumb and 2nd digit tone higher and ?seeking sensory input but lacking stability function. Any splints? Taping? Or other input to help?

[Sonya @LWNeuroPhysio]

@pt_neuro Thanks. I enjoy seeing what is possible but want things I can leave my clients doing when not with me.

[Sonya @LWNeuroPhysio]

@karenphysiocouk @pt_neuro Thanks, for sharing. I have been incorporating some of the ideas that had been shared. I especially liked the carrying tray 😊. The thumb strap works while using the SaeboGlove I wasn’t sure if there was some way of replicating? Stability in functional use appear the way to go.
