Delicate Movements are More Effective for Changes in the Brain

Delicate Movements are More Effective for Changes in the Brain


Research on the brain has been conducted for a very long time. Thanks to the
studies, most of us now know that the brain is a very important part of our
body. In the initial stage of brain studies, Frisch and Hitzig conducted their
research on the brains of dogs. They engaged in experiments with the dog brains
and were the first to prove that the right hemisphere is responsible for the
left set of limbs and the left hemisphere responsible for the right.

Initially, the research was mainly conducted on dogs and cats, and thereafter on
primates that resemble human beings. An iconic researcher of the field is
Sherrington. He conducted his research on monkeys and found parts of the brain
that control each of the movements through electric stimulation on the motor
area of the cerebral cortex.

Recently, a researcher named Penfield, also a student of Sherrington, conducted
the same research used on monkeys to study areas of the brain controlling
movement, but this time on actual human beings.

Upon such findings, most parts of the motor area of human’s cerebral cortex were
found, but new questions started to form. A question was posed on whether the
movements in the motor area were for the control of individual muscles or for
the control of a set of multiple muscles needed for a specific movement.

A monkey was given instructions to make a delicate fist clench and a strong fist
clench, for which the activity of muscles and the activity of the motor area in
the cerebral cortex were both measured.



Results showed that there was no significant difference in the muscle activity
for the delicate and strong clenches, but the activity of the motor area in the
cerebral cortex was greater for the delicate clench than for the strong clench.
It concludes that for the activation or changes in the motor area of the
cerebral cortex in the brain, delicate movements may induce greater changes than
simple movements can.

If your sole purpose is to strengthen your muscles, simple movements would also
be effective, but delicate movements would be more helpful in inducing changes
in the brain. As such, wouldn’t the repetition of delicate movements bring about
better results than simple movements also in rehabilitation training? Visit our

Hand Rehabilitation Training

By combining hardware to aid the body movements and software to design appropriate brain therapy program, patients can do hand rehab training continuously.

How Stroke Patients Can Hand Rehab By Playing Games At Home



How Stroke Patients can Do Hand Rehab at Home
After testing the Neofect Smart Glove solution in hospitals around the world and
validating its effectiveness, Neofect [https://www.neofect.com/us] has offered
their device for post-stroke rehabilitation at home.

Stroke patients often experience long term disability, which is more due to
neuro damage than to muscle weakness. By combining hardware to aid the body
movements and software to design appropriate brain therapy program, physicians
can greatly improve the rehab process.

Neofect Smart Glove [https://www.neofect.com/us/smart-glove] is a biofeedback
system which includes a glove-like device with built-in sensors to measure hand,
wrist and finger movements, and a software program to create training games.
There are more than 40 games currently available.



The software has an artificial intelligence component that automatically adjusts
the range of motion and difficulty level. This ensures the patient continues to
stay challenged during the game, at the same time, creating a positive,
encouraging environment. The system monitors the performance data over time and
generates progress reports.

Neofect has been successfully used by a number of hospitals. After getting
positive feedback from medical professionals, the device is now available to
individuals. Stroke victims can buy or rent and work on regaining their hand
mobility at their own pace without leaving their homes.

The first participants of the program have been excessively satisfied with the
results:

> "I really believe in this product. The games keep my mind working, It is great
with the hand, but in a cognitive level, I have come a long way and can make
full sentences now." (Carol S., Va.)


> "Most companies sell you a product and then want nothing to do with you. Neofect
has developed a product that truly helps with rehabilitation, but more than
that, they are a true partner in the process. They are constantly releasing new
games, they check in on progress and are by our side helping us get to the next
stage. We are so very grateful to have found this company and their amazing
product." (Melia W., Wash.)


Neofect [https://www.neofect.com/us] have introduced a special, more powerful
stroke home exercise programs of the Neofect solution since 2017.

In the U.S., every 40 seconds someone is having a stroke. It is the leading
cause of disability, costing the national economy $34 billion and a victim’s
family – an average $17,081 annually.


The majority of patients has never completes their rehabilitation therapy for
one or a combination of three reasons:

 1. Difficulty to visit a doctor’s office on a regular basis.
 2. The lack of noticeable improvement
 3. High cost

The Neofect solution [https://www.neofect.com/us] is designed to solve each of
these problems by making the rehab program engaging, affordable and available
for patients at the convenience of their home.
