  3. Cognitive training and memory processing post TBI/ABI
  4. Hand-object-eye coordination activities – hitting targets with thrown ball or extended dowel
  5. Challenge range of motion by reaching outside of base of support with dynamic balance activities
  6. Push limits of stability during seated or standing balance therapy exercises
  7. Assess balance control and postural stability post stroke
  8. Engage patients in dual tasking by combining cognitive, motor or vision tasks with balance control
