  3. Common ways of recovering the fine motor skills are: 1 Repetitive Exercises: Fine Motor Control Exercises (AROM): 2 It is the brain that gets affected by the stroke that further causes inactiveness in certain parts of the body. Studies show that the stroke patients often suffer from fine motor difficulties due to the overabundance of muscle mass or the lack of muscle mass. If the brain rewires itself, the body parts will get alright. This rewiring has to be achieved with repetitive exercises on the weak areas, for the brain to build new pathways. So the best way to activate the inactive limbs would be repetitive exercises with the weaker body parts. Focus, target and deliberately try to use them in day to day activities.

  4. Bimanual Therapy: 3 Here motivation and exercises are done focusing on using both the hands equally in performing daily activities. This will help in perfect coordination of hands in proper manner for pouring milk or playing cards and so on. 4 Sensory Processing: After a stroke, children will be more sensitive or less sensitive to touch, therefore therapists try to retain the child's sense of touch using different methods.

  5. Aquatic Therapy: Certain highly qualified occupational therapists use aquatic environments for movements and skills that cannot be done in land.  4 This will undoubtedly help children in learning coordination awareness in a comfortable and fun environment. and body
