Provided are methods and kits for reducing the severity of muscle stiffness. The method comprises delivering to one or more specific locations in the deep fascia of an affected muscle a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of hyaluronidase.

Use of hyaluronidase for treatment of muscle stiffness

A bimanual arm trainer that provides therapeutic bimanual repetitive exercise to improve upper body movement and flexibility has a top support that is elevated relative to a ground surface. The trainer further includes: (a) first and second arm holders that are pivotable relative to the top support; and (b) first and second arm holder housings that are pivotably coupled to the top support and can be moved into a plurality of different positions and locked in place in one of the plurality of different positions relative to the top support. The first arm holder is pivotably coupled to the first arm holder and the second arm holder is pivotably coupled to the second arm holder. A reciprocating translation mechanism operatively connects the first and second arm holders such that the motion of one of the first and second arm holders is mirrored in the other of the first and second arm holders.

Treatment of neurological injury through motor relearning. A game-based sensorimotor rehabilitator that enables individuals to interact with the functional objects using the appropriate amount of force, tilt, finger movement, and muscle activity to regain lost skill due to injury.

Game-based sensorimotor rehabilitator

According to one embodiment, a rehabilitative training device for use with a stroke patient includes a first component that is operatively coupled to a first body part (unaffected body part) of the patient and a second component that is operatively coupled to a second body part (affected body part) of the patient. The first component and second component are operatively coupled to one another such that motion of the first component as a result of movement of the first body part by the user causes the second component and second body part to move in a symmetrical motion.
