Memories ...c4 quad.. I never had someone that talked that much. Good thing you had no questions.
Pivot .. nose over toes .. go well with rocking momentum. You could face that bed .. put both feet down& together .. lean forward .. nose over toes ..rock ..pivot .. sit. Hands on the object transferring to .. or one on the seat . Using the back of the hand is a must for me . I'm curious if those with non damaged hands would prefer it over the palm.
I couldn't hear if he mentioned height .. seat to object needs it and not a soft couch .. cuz you'll find it hard to lift up lol. Sink.
I learned using the arm of the couch or a blanket to push upward..off from .. put my hand higher than the butt . Placed other hand on my wheelchair seat or arm rest. (Power wc) .. make a lazy susan out of wood, put grip tape over areas your feet are traced on the wood .. helps to learn pivoting . Heeled shoes don't stick..
Exercise ball is great for trunk control . Supervised. My pt put me on my knees on a pt mat/table. Abdominal was over the yoga ball. He shifted me side to side ..back N fourth . Knees will freak. I think our knees get missed As a crucial area to use. Bare weight on knees it helps many areas. Especially since we sit so long in a bent knee position. You can use the bed as a good spot to try. Hard surfaces freak my paralysis.
That gait belt .. I so dislike them. They cause a stimulus. Like any thing binding. They are a false sense of protection. Had a nurse drop me as she grabbed it vs me.
Thank u so much Sir
