stroke + this = able to hug again

I actually purchased these as an idea I had for a relative that had a serious stroke. When looking for a medical device I couldn't find anything. Found these while looking for a wrist strap that I was planning on sewing a strap to the side of.She has feeling in her right arm but can't move it on her own. Her left arm works well. I got these for her so she could wrap it on her right wrist, and use the strap in her left hand. She can use it to adjust her right arm so that it is more comfortable. She can also use it to lift her arm to hug her grandkids, her sons, and her husband. To hug visitors. She absolutely loves it. Works just as I had hoped it would and she said it is really comfortable. Which I should add, her right arm is VERY sensitive and in pain so the fact it is comfortable to her is HUGE.She refuses to take it off except to trade it for the other one while one is being cleaned. It's been 2 months+.I know this is not the intended purpose of this item, but it works for her as if it was designed for her situation. I genuinely hope this idea helps others. As a disclaimer, this is NOT the intended use, use at your own risk. Not all strokes are the same. Not everyone regains feeling in the immobile side. Not everyone with a stroke can safely maneuver their mobile side with this using their mobile arm. They may not feel it if it is placed wrong. There are risks for injury if not used in a safe manner. But I hope it can help someone else.

Pros
  • The straps have a non-slip grip, preventing any slippage or accidents during workouts
Cons
  • Can be bulky and obscure proper hand and wrist positioning
