High Five Constraint Camp

At the recent weeklong High Five Constraint Camp, pediatric occupational therapists help children improve a weaker limb to become stronger.

Kinsey Jones works to pick up rubbery spiders and place them into a cup at the recent weeklong High Five Constraint Camp. There, pediatric occupational therapists place a soft cast on a child’s dominant arm and hand to restrict movement. With the dominant, stronger arm and hand casted, the child trains the weaker arm and hand to become stronger.
