Therapeutic intervention using neuromechanical capacity (strength) in the repetitive practice of close-to-normal movements can directly address weakness and effectively restore motor control.

Exploring post-stroke upper extremity strength

Lower extremity resistance exercise, more commonly prescribed post stroke, has demonstrated improvement in functional tasks for rising from a chair, walking and stair climbing. Increasing strength for the upper extremity in hemiparetic patients has only been recently been studied.

Hemiparetic Attachment for Shoulder

Shoulder Patterns: Abduction/Adduction

Sliding pads accommodate limb length and any impaired scapulohumeral rhythm.
Lightweight to negate gravitational load.
Comfortable secure stabilization is ensured without the need to grasp a handle. However, a handle is provided to encourage the preferred thumbs up “full can” position which has a much lower risk of causing shoulder impingement-type symptoms.

Shoulder Patterns: Flexion/Extension

Uses the same attachment and adjustments as abduction/adduction.

Hemiparetic Attachment for Shoulder and Elbow

Shoulder Patterns: Internal/External Rotation Supports the weight of the forearm with an integrated armrest pad. Isolates internal/external rotation in a modified position.

Elbow Patterns: Extension/Flexion Uses the same attachment as shoulder internal/external rotation. Supports the weight of the forearm with an integrated armrest pad. Isolates flexion and extension in the transverse plane, negating the effect of gravity.

Hemiparetic Attachment for Wrist

Wrist Patterns: Extension/Flexion

Positions wrist so the pattern can be performed in the transverse plane, negating the effect of gravity.
