Congratulations, you have taken the first step in maximizing your rehab potential. A well-developed
patient-specific home exercise program is essential for optimum recovery. After all, you will be working
alone at home far more than with your therapist.
The SaeboGlide is a versatile piece of exercise equipment that can be used at home independently. It
can be used in a sitting, standing, or lying position. You can track your progress while performing our
recommended exercise program that will challenge you throughout all stages of your recovery.
This instructional manual describes an in-depth comprehensive program. Soon, you will learn how to
exercise your arm at your current level of function. Also, you will know when and how to advance your
exercises when they no longer challenge you. The exercise program consists of three sections: (1)
stretching, (2) bilateral exercises (both arms), and (3) level I and level II gliding exercises.
WHY THE SAEBOGLIDE WORKS:
The SaeboGlide offers a way to exercise your involved arm by using the gliding sleeve. Following
placement of your hand onto the gliding sleeve, the distal support will allow you to perform various
controlled upper extremity exercises that are appropriate for your strength level.
INDICATIONS:
1. Stroke
2. Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
3. Individuals suffering from hemiparesis
PRECAUTIONS:
1. All stretches and exercises should be performed pain-free. If you experience any pain
during the stretches and/or exercises, stop immediately and contact a health care
professional before resuming.
2. Do not give the SaeboGlide or Plus version to unsupervised children.
3. Do not use the SaeboGlide or Plus version if you have allergies to rubber or plastic
products.
4. Caregiver assistance is recommended for individuals with cognitive impairments and severe
spasticity.
5. Do not use the SaeboGlide or Plus version inside any monoplace hyperbaric
chamber.
MAINTENANCE OF THE SAEBOGLIDE:
The SaeboGlide should be cleaned monthly with a damp cloth. Avoid chemicals/abrasives for cleaning
which may damage and decrease the performance of the SaeboGlide. Also, it is recommended that your
hands are clean prior to using, as residue on the pole will decrease performance. Do not leave your
SaeboGlide in the sun or near extreme heat, this will affect the properties of the plastic in an adverse
way decreasing performance.
