The arm skate supports the weight of a client’s forearm and hand so they can work on active range of motion at a table without fighting gravity. Four casters carry the load and let the arm travel smoothly across the surface, with the low profile keeping it stable through the movement.
Wide hook and loop straps hold the forearm and hand in place, and the hand piece is removable and repositionable, so a therapist can set the wrist and fingers where the exercise needs them. Screw eyes let a weight resistance system be added as the client progresses, which means the same piece of equipment stays useful across a treatment block.
It suits clients in neurological rehabilitation and anyone whose shoulder or elbow strength limits how much practice they can do unsupported.
