Introduction[edit | edit source]

Heinrich Frenkel created the Frenkel's exercise as a coordination and proprioception exercise for people with tabetic ataxia. In this exercise, the central nervous system is educated through precise repetition of exercise with high level of concentration. The exercises are carried out in three different positions: sitting, lying down, and standing.[1]Although the exercise was created for persons with tabetic ataxia, it has been proven effective for other neurological conditions involving coordination and proprioception affectation.
