I have spasticity and able to put on the gloves with the air blower patiently one finger at the time. It is so nice to have my hand open and closed after 5 years of having it in a fist.

Your assessment of saeboflex is right. I have used both saeboflex and saeboglove. They only prevented hand from going into contracture. The orange one is called- wei ni shii. There’re three modes on it. Automatic open and closes with pneumatic pressure. But there is a mirror mode where it mirrors glove worn on unaffected hand. I have using it for about six months. I get clonus in affected fingers. I think it is working. But will take time. Bigger culprit in the way is as soon as you try to push your body to do anything, fingers clinch. In my opinion, as soon as that is resolved means my other functions are fully recovered, my fingers will extend.

i slip in cross-body activities with my hand by tossing a ball back and forth from hand to hand. start small and slow, get wider and faster as the day allows. this also helps my balance, too (vertigo).

resting splint stretching then use the glove, I have this glove from Amazon, I like the extra glove to put on the non effected side to do like the mirror method but without the mirror, it's a timely proces, my hand has tons of tone in my left hand as I was an avid guitar player and had a very strong hand so it's super hard to put my resting splint on even with help, I love your videos Tara!only if all therapists are like you!your amazing and talented!❤👍I've learned a ton from watching your wonderful videos!God bless you Tara Tobias!🫶🙏🎉your doing God's work my dear👌💯

This reminded me of 12 years ago when my dad had a stroke. I went with him to REHAB and they had a bunch of people using the BIONESS HAND thing. They liked me there because at the time I was using the BIONESS L300 for my foot. It showed what your hand was capable of. Every one in the class went back to traditional old school methods. Nobody there could afford a BIONESS for them selves. Also a lot of the clients didn't like the feel of the electrics pulsing through your skin. My Dad did better with rubber balls and rolled up face cloths.

I've been using one of those air driven Robo gloves for about a month and a half now but it's primary use is just in helping keep my hand from becoming overly stiff. I'll use it for about 20 minutes at night to help relax my hand. I have a certain amount of grip but and rarely able to extend the hand back open without assistance and I found that after using the glove for a while it at least helps bring enough relaxation back into the hand that it will open up. I don't think it's remotely any kind of a replacement for much more direct rudimentary exercises as far as regaining hand function but if you have someone who can help you put the thing on it does feel good the way it gently expands the fingers and contracts them and I think that this has helped prevent further spasticity in my fingers. like everything it's just another tool though but the price point wasn't too bad and for what I paid I feel like I've gotten my money's worth

2.25 years no much progress in motor function.. can you please guide madam loving all your videos

[wolffyward]

I'm a spinal cord patient And have no finger movement whatsoever I was thinking about buying the robotic gloves Just to have them stretched out in general But they come one hand at a time

[ismokeyzhd]

i almost dont have hand function i can sqeeze pretty had tho
im 29 and got my stroke 7 moth s ago, im doing recoveryix right now as therapie

[marcosponce]

Espiravo glove is easy to get on and works good, , the ReHand glove failed in 2 weeks

[nycilah]

If any equipment or, supporting mechines for getting leg fingure movement & strength?. Expect a replay from there, thank you🙏

[MrStevenMosher]

i got bothsaebo and the inflatable one. air powered one works better

[JustSomeGuy-ssip]

I tried one of these early in my recovery when I had very little active movement. Kind of pointless back then, but I'm looking into them again. My major hurdle is opening my hand past that "sticking point" after clenching.

[jolantadzialecka]

I had already one case of a left glove but coud not put it on by myself. Even my husband could not put it on me we had to return
I need a glowe that is outstreched and onwhich I canput my open hand That is what Ineed Please show me such a glove

[aaronoyster]

I've used the Saebo Flex & while it worked as it should for about the first year, it was impossible to put on myself & eventually painful to use.

[ismokeyzhd]

i cant open my hand at al so how should i go

[conradfajardo]

It's hard to review something that your not familiar with! The robotic glove truely helps me...

[marcosponce]

I broke my hand and wrist, in a splint for 2 months. I can only do a half fist. Will a glove help me

[anlyq]

I bought one and thought it was trashso I returned it....all it did was open and close as a fist. It did not extend each additional finger.individually.and yes it is hard to get on o with one hand
