Overview: Protect Your Joints, Prevent the Claw
The SaeboStretch is a revolutionary, patented dynamic resting hand splint. Unlike traditional “hard” splints that can cause joint pain or pressure sores when the hand tries to curl, the SaeboStretch features a flexible hand plate that moves with your spasticity. It is the gold standard for preventing “the claw-fist” and maintaining a functional hand position during rest or sleep.
How it Works: Energy-Absorbing Stretch Technology
Traditional splints are rigid, leading to a “battle” between your muscles and the brace.
- Mechanism: The SaeboStretch utilizes a dynamic hand plate that allows the fingers to curl inward during a spike in muscle tone (spasticity) and then gently guides them back to a stretched position as the tone relaxes.
- Customization: It comes with three interchangeable hand plates, each offering a different level of resistance to match your specific recovery stage.
- Skin Integrity: Covered in Breath-O-Preen material, it wicks away moisture and prevents skin breakdown during long-term wear.
How it Helps: Long-term Hand Health
- Prevents Contractures: Keeps muscles and tendons at their optimal length to prevent permanent shortening.
- Reduces Pain: Eliminates the “joint stress” caused by fighting against rigid, static splints.
- Protects Joints: Prevents the hypermobility of the finger joints often seen with traditional bracing.
- Improves Hygiene: The SaeboStretch features a dynamic, open-frame design with washable, moisture-wicking covers that maximize airflow and prevent the bacterial buildup and skin maceration associated with a clenched fist.
