Upper Limb / Fine Motor Skills

Some children / young people struggle with tasks that are carried out by the smaller muscles of the body, in particular the hands and fingers.

These might include:

• Strength and durability
• Difficulty with shoelaces and doing up buttons
• Scribbling and drawing
• Poor handwriting
• Problems picking up and manipulating small objects
• Difficulty using both hands at the same time
• Issues with using scissors
• Difficulty using cutlery and drinking

We can help them develop the skills needed to improve their co-ordination and dexterity with a series of exercises, practical tasks, strategies and targeted therapy.
