How does the SaeboFlex work?

The SaeboFlex attaches to the forearm, hand and fingers and allows your child to use their affected hand functionally in therapy and in a home exercise programme.

The spring-loaded mechanical brace extends (straightens) the wrist and helps re-open the hand to release or grasp objects. Following a neurological trauma, an individual may struggle to release a grasp causing functional problems, this device aims to restore muscle strength. In conditions such as stroke or cerebral palsy, a child may be left with significant imbalances such as excessive tightness in the hand. The spring system can help release some of the stiffness and assist with releasing some of the hand grip.
