To start out with I will be sharing some different physical therapies that I use to keep myself feelings physically well as possible. Not only for my affect paralyzed side but for my good healthy side that I feel can help anyone paralyzed or not.
Each of these suggestions are not medical or medicine related more stretching and getting regular massage to keep myself loose and my healthy side as healthy as possible. I have been recently finding much relief and more flexibility from getting stretches at my local Stretch Lab. It is just that you go in and get stretched by professional and it really has improved my gait for walking and flexibility.
There are around 400 Stretch Labs in the US, and tell them the mobility queen sent you.
A good stretch is good for all!
“As for Products that Perform” —
“It’s the little things” I have a new list of some tiny everyday items that make a difference for me.
It’s all about THE PHONE, how to carry it not leave it somewhere keep it safe within reach and charged.
For starters I’ve added this Lanyard to the mix. Keeps my phone safely on me and with me at all times.
Portable charger– The plugs in the phone and outlet and does not attach to the back of the phone since I also use a pop socket on the back of my phone
A Pop socket for the back of your phone. I find this Helpful to hold with one hand as well as place to lean on when you set it down to type freely with one hand. This one is a custom one for the mobility queen let me know if you have any interest but there are many versions available. Maria@themobilityqueen.com
