A 72-year-old woman suffered an acute right CVA resulting in a left-sided spastic hemiplegia. Although she can move her left arm, she has no functional use of it, as her increased muscle tone results in a flexion synergy in which she adducts her shoulder, flexes her elbow, and pulls her hand into a tight fist.

The provider then internally rotates the patient’s upper arm, extends the elbows, pronates the forearm and extends the patient’s fingers and thumb. This combination of movements releases the spasm, and with manual guiding from the provider, the patient is able to practice grasping, holding and releasing large objects.
