SaeboMAS

Get back to the activities you love with this zero-gravity mobile arm support (MAS) device designed to assist with shoulder instability and facilitate movement in weakened arms and shoulders.

What is the SaeboMAS?
The SaeboMAS dynamic mobile arm support system is a zero-gravity upper extremity device specifically designed to assist and challenge the weakened shoulder and elbow during functional tasks and repetitive exercise drills. Patients suffering from arm weakness resulting from neurological or orthopedic conditions such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, or shoulder subluxation can benefit from the much-needed support and facilitation. The SaeboMAS picks up where old, traditional arm supports have left off and brings mobile arm supports into the age of technology.

Gravity-supported, weight-supported, zero-gravity, and gravity-compensated are synonymous. It means counteracting the effects of gravity while facilitating and promoting functional movement
Unloading or ‘resting’ the arm substantially decreases the training load. It improves independence during daily living tasks and may also increase motor recovery by relearning normal movement patterns. Performing exercises and self-care tasks, such as eating or drinking, with minimal compensation are just a few of the activities patients will be able to perform with Saebo’s unweighting technology.
Patients with proximal weakness (affecting muscles closest to the body’s midline) can now participate in proven treatment techniques, such as task-oriented activities that would have been difficult or impossible otherwise. The SaeboMAS allows them to maximize independence with self-care and leisure tasks.
