Moves Flex-Ion Hand and Finger Exerciser | Beige | 0.35 kg per Finger

The Flex-Ion devices are designed to restore the strength, flexibility, and coordination of the fingers, hand, and forearm muscles.

The device can be used at home or by physical therapists, movement therapists, and physiotherapists.

Resistance levels are indicated by different colors:

• Beige: 0.35 kg per finger, 1.1 kg full hand
• Yellow: 0.7 kg per finger, 2.3 kg full hand
• Red: 1.4 kg per finger, 4.5 kg full hand
• Green: 2.3 kg per finger, 7.3 kg full hand
• Blue: 3.2 kg per finger, 10.4 kg full hand
• Black: 4.1 kg per finger, 14.1 kg full hand

Typically, you begin rehabilitation with a lower resistance device and gradually move to higher resistance as strength improves.

General Use

The Flex-Ion is intended for conditions resulting in weakened muscle strength, decreased mobility, or coordination issues—often following stroke, spinal injury, or surgery. It can also be used after injuries or immobilization due to accidents, sports injuries, or casts.

For optimal recovery of original abilities, consult a specialist (physiotherapist, movement therapist, etc.). They will recommend the appropriate exercises and choose the correct resistance level. Starting too heavy can worsen symptoms through overexertion.

Fingertip Grip

Hold the Flex-Ion with your fingertips on the buttons and thumb clasped around the device. Bend your fingers as if making a fist, pressing down on the buttons. Perform slow, comfortable movements: hold for a few seconds, then release. Repeat 10–15 times.

Full Hand Grip

Hold the Flex-Ion so your fingers meet your thumb. Squeeze by pressing all buttons at once. Hold for a few seconds, then release. Repeat 10–15 times.

Single Finger Squeeze

Place your index finger on one button and thumb opposite. Bend both fingers together to press the button. Perform slow movements: hold for a few seconds, then release. Repeat 10–15 times. Then switch to the middle finger and repeat. Continue with each finger.

Fingertip Variation

Hold the device with your fingertips on the buttons and thumb opposite. Bend your fingers to press the buttons. Hold for a few seconds, then release. Repeat 10–15 times.

Thumb Pinch

Hold the device with your index finger below and thumb on the first button. Press the button with your thumb.

Trigger Squeeze

Grasp the device; place your index finger on the second button and press as if pulling a trigger.

These are just a few examples of movements you can perform. Consult your movement therapist or physiotherapist for guidance.

Suggestions

• Perform movements slowly at a comfortable pace. Hold the buttons for a few seconds, then release.
• Repeat each exercise 10–15 times.
• It’s normal to do fewer repetitions at first. Aim to increase daily.
• Avoid overexertion; patience and gradual progression are key.
• Once you complete an exercise, move on to the next. After finishing all exercises, repeat the full series.
• Your therapist will help design your exercise routine and adjust repetitions. They will monitor your progress and recommend gradual increases in load to rebuild strength.
