Mag,
Would feldenkrais help me with fine motor skills? I need to get to where I can put eyedrops in my eyes myself, and it "just ain't happening, now."
Thanks,
Mike.

>Welcome back. I too have done Feldenkrais for many years. I used to get chiropractic done also. But my neck has gotten to the point where it's too delicate for chiro. At the moment, I am in PT for a very sore arm, and also to begin using my new hip, so they have me on exercise machines. I have found that feldenkrais does wonders for walking issues. I am 53 and have suffered intense leg and hip pain for a long time; finally realized it must be joint damage, and sure enough my hip xrays showed extremely worn down, bone on bone - nothing that feldenkraid could fix. last year I had my right hip replaced, and then in oct 09 i had the other hip replaced. freedom from pain is great!

>Hello, everyone --
>
>I am a new subscriber to C-Palsy. I subscribed for a time several years ago, but never posted. This time will be different. Here's a profile of me.
>
>I'm 65 years old. I have a mild case of spastic hemiplegic that affects my left side. For the most part I have been able to lead a normal life. I'm married, have two grown children, worked for 26 years as a journalist and five for the Alzheimer's Assn. Special steps I take to manage my cerebral palsy include regular chiropractic treatments, Feldenkrais treatments and the study and practice of tai chi. For the past few months I have been working with a physical therapist on balance, falling and walking issues.
>For many years I've been frustrated by the lack of good information about CP as it relates both to aging and to people with my level of involvement. Over the next few weeks I'll share my main issues. I look forward to hearing your responses, and replying to you as well.
