Plastered arm

Right handed people can be changed to being left handed in such little time. Making your right arm immobilized in like a casting or plaster substance for as little as 16 days can switch the functioning of your brain to opposite. All the matter in the left side of your brain will start to switch over to the right making it so you are left handed instead of right. This process is also therapeutic, if somebody injured there arm so badly that it got so weak, you would cast up your other arm so that it would help you have to use your arm again and make it stronger than before.
Impact:This would help people who always wished they were left-handed and people who went through some arm trauma.
Critique:I think this is cool because you can keep switching up this process to make your arms the same strength without the need of heavy lifting.
