For hemiparetic upper extremity rehabilitation, consider using an upside-down cone and golf balls to promote shoulder flexion, neutral shoulder rotation, elbow extension, and controlled forearm movements.  Activity Steps:  Setup: Place the cone upside down on a stable surface. Engagement: Encourage the individual to grasp a golf ball or similar item.  Movement:  👉Ulnar Deviation: Roll the ball towards the outer edge of the cone.  👉Elbow Extension: Focus on extending the elbow while maintaining control.  👉Variations: Use different cups or containers to pour out items, enhancing engagement and challenge.  This activity targets proximal movements effectively for those with limited extension capabilities.  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2230868/  https://www.sciencedirect.com/scie
