WHY EX N’ FLEX RANGE OF MOTION THERAPY?
Daily exercise has long been recognized an essential component of health. Ex N’ Flex
Passive/Active Therapy Devices provide Daily Range of Motion for individuals who
have little or no voluntary movement. On-going scientific research not only continually
provides studies on the benefits of passive exercise, but also indicates a future with
breakthroughs for paraplegia and quadriplegia, which may contribute to an increase in
limb mobility and even walking. Use of an Ex N’ Flex helps retain leg flexibility and in
maintaining muscle mass.
Be Ready! Increased mobility and walking
may be a future possibility.
Consider the advantages and convenience of being able to set up your own Therapy
program at home. You can have range of motion exercise everyday to stretch muscles
and tendons and retain lubrication in the joints, all essential components of atrophy
prevention and bone strength
Your personal passive/active therapy device allows you to exercise from your wheel
chair or scooter while sitting on your patio or deck, by your window, or while watching
television or reading. The small size and transportability of an Ex N’ Flex makes it ideal
for taking with you anywhere, short outings or long trips. It can even be used from a
vehicle with a 12 volt inverter.
Physical Therapy treatment provided by professionals is often for a limited period of
time or limited to a certain number of visits per year. Having access to therapy anytime
allows for continued body maintenance, more independence, freedom and increased
well being.
Considering the time, energy and expense for travel to therapy
appointments or a facility where devices such as the Ex N’ Flex are available for use, a
Range of Motion Therapy device such as an Ex N’ Flex can provide ongoing predictable
Therapy for as long as you want, whenever you want.

Feedback from individuals who have been using an Ex N’ Flex in Passive mode only,
include; stretching of the Achilles tendon allowing for more ankle movement, decreased
swelling in limbs, reduction in foot drop. Better flexibility, easier transfers, fewer bladder
infections, better sleeps at night and More!
Ex N’ Flex control units provide a Biofeedback display mode. The Biofeedback digital
readout allows the user to visually see any resistance to movement in their limbs, usually
due to stiffness and atrophy. The Biofeedback will also show the decrease of resistance,
which, for those with little or no feeling in their limbs, indicates an improvement in
flexibility.
For individuals who have some voluntary movement there is the active mode which
permits the user to pedal actively assisting/ overriding the machine. Over time and with
repeated sessions of active exercise, individuals have shown an increase in muscle
strength. Many users have experienced better limb flexibility and strength which allows for
easier transfer, improved weight bearing and in some cases improved ability to take
steps. All active exercise is registered and displayed for the user by the Biofeedback
display.
