The
FLEXTEND®-AC corrects the strength / length imbalances of the
entire upper extremity, but specifically focuses its effects on
the shoulder girdle due to its complex structure and vulnerability
to injury. Creating strength equality between the muscle groups
surrounding the shoulder decreases abnormal pressures on the shoulder
joint, reducing soft-tissue impingement / compression, irritation
and inflammation that cause abnormal movement patterns, the root
of many debilitating injuries.
FLEXTEND®-AC
also targets many other specific areas of the upper extremity, utilizing
a variety of physician, therapist and trainer recommended exercises
and training programs for the fingers, hands, wrists, elbows, forearms,
biceps, triceps, chest and back.
FLEXTEND®-AC
is portable, inexpensive, simple to use and eliminates all gripping
motion, reducing unnecessary stress to the hands, which has been
shown to cause further muscle imbalances and injury - Perfect for
those suffering with osteoarthritis!

- Prevention:

or trauma.

The FLEXTEND®-AC
addresses Repetitive Strain Injuries affecting the entire Upper
Extremity, but specifically focuses on the Acromioclavicular(AC)
Joint due to the following:
- Unique
Muscle Involvement
- Complex
Movement Patterns
- Vulnerability
to Injury & Trauma
- The
Complexity of the Shoulder(AC) Joint:
There
is more movement possible at the shoulder joint than at any other
joint in the body. Over 1600 positions in three-dimensional space
can be assumed by the shoulder, making it susceptible to serious
injury. Creating a strong, balanced and stable joint is imperative
to injury prevention, rehabilitation and performance enhancement.
NATIONAL
STATISTICS:
- According
to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, nearly two-thirds of
all occupational illnesses reported, were caused by exposure
to repeated trauma to workers upper body (the wrist, elbow or
shoulder). Examples: carpal tunnel syndrome, medial/lateral
epicondylitis, shoulder tendonitis, etc.
- Musculoskeletal
disorders are the country's most costly category of workplace
injuries and illnesses. In addition to spending $20 billion
annually on workers' compensation costs due to RSIs, the U.S.
spends another $100 billion on lost productivity, employee turnover,
and other indirect expenses; The Agency for Health Care Policy
and Research.
