Moves Flex-Ion Hand and Finger Exerciser | Green | 2.3 kg per Finger

The Flex-Ion device is designed to help restore the strength of the fingers, hand, and forearm muscles, and to improve their flexibility and coordination.

It is suitable for home use and for professionals such as physiotherapists, movement therapists, and rehabilitation specialists.

Resistance levels are indicated by different colors:

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

In rehabilitation, you usually start with a lower resistance and gradually move to higher levels as you regain strength.

General Use

Use the Flex-Ion in conditions where muscle strength, range of motion, or coordination is impaired. This commonly occurs after a stroke, spinal injury, surgery, or due to forced immobility from accidents, sports injuries, or casting.

For optimal recovery, seek guidance from a specialist (physiotherapist, movement therapist, etc.) who can recommend the appropriate resistance level and exercises. Starting too strong may worsen symptoms.

Fingertip Grip

Hold the device so your fingertips rest on the buttons and your thumb locks onto it. Bend all fingers at once like making a fist, pressing the keys. Perform at a slow, comfortable pace: hold for a few seconds, then release. Repeat 10–15 times.

Full Hand Grip

Hold the device so your fingers reach your opposite thumb. Squeeze all fingers while pressing all buttons. Hold for a few seconds, then release. Repeat 10–15 times.

Single-Finger Squeeze

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

Fingertips

Hold the device with your fingertips on the buttons and thumb opposite. Bend your fingers while pressing the keys. Perform at a slow, comfortable pace: 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. Pinch by pressing the first button with your thumb.

Trigger Pull

Hold the device in your fist with your index finger on the second button. Press the second button as if pulling a trigger.

These are just a few examples! A therapist can help you learn many other movements.

Recommendations

• Perform movements at a slow, comfortable pace. Hold the buttons for a few seconds, then release.
• Repeat the same movement 10–15 times.
• Your first session may involve fewer repetitions. That’s okay; aim to increase gradually each day.
• Avoid overexertion to prevent discomfort. Patience and gradual progress are key!
• Once you reach the required repetitions for one exercise, move on to the next.
• After completing all exercises, repeat the entire sequence.
• Your therapist will help design the program, set repetitions, monitor progress, and adjust the load gradually to restore strength.
