The SaeboFlex® positions the wrist
and fingers into extension in preparation for functional
activities. The user is able to grasp an object by
voluntarily flexing his or her fingers. The extension spring
system assists in re-opening the hand to release the
object.
The SaeboReach™ not only
incorporates the affected wrist and hand but also the elbow.
The orthosis consists of the SaeboFlex® and a
custom fabricated above-elbow component. The
SaeboReach™ is ideal for neurologically impaired
individuals that have hand and elbow involvement. The custom
fabricated above-elbow cuff, as well as the dynamic elbow extension
system, allows patients to incorporate their elbow for functional
reach during grasp and release activities.
The SaeboFlex® and
SaeboReach™ are custom fabricated orthotics that
are non-electronically based and are purely mechanical. These
orthotics along with repetitive, task oriented activities, are
highly effective strategies for maximizing arm and hand
recovery.
The Saebo Arm Training Program is a specialized
treatment approach designed to maximize your arm and hand function
following a neurological injury such as a stroke. It's the
only program available that allows you to incorporate your involved
hand functionally for grasp and release, task-specific activities
that are volitionally based.
