FUNCTIONAL ACTIVITIES:
We suggest two 45 minute sessions of functional grasp and release activities
each day. Consult with your SaeboTrained therapist to help identify the best
functional activities to match your specific needs. After each 45 minute session
the SaeboFlex should be removed for at least 30 minutes. It is possible to do
more than two 45 minute sessions each day.

hypermobile or lax joints

• Limiting fixed contractures in the fingers, thumb, and wrist

• The
SaeboFlex was not designed to be used on a normal hand
as the dynamic resistive springs are not calibrated to
accommodate normal tone and would be no functional benefit.

1. If you experience any pain while wearing or using the
SaeboFlex, stop immediately and contact a health care
professional before resuming.
2.
If unusual swelling, skin discoloration, discomfort, or
numbness occurs, remove immediately and contact a health
