I am not very mobile, but I want to do some type of exercise. Can Flexwear help?
YES Seniors Health: Exercise and physical activity can serve as a tool for maintaining cardiovascular health, bone density, muscle mass and balance for overall physical health. Balance, weight bear status or immobility may interfere with a senior’s ability to access or perform conventional exercise. Free weights may not always be appropriate because of risk of injury or cognitive decline. Wheelchair or homebound: Flexwear was designed to make fitness accessible for people of all abilities including individuals who are unable to access equipment or community to exercise. Donning Flexwear is simple and requires minimal shoulder mobility. The fasteners are easy to secure and all bands are fastened to the vest for easy use and independent use. Flexwear can be used while seated or while in bed for upper body strengthening and mobility training. Therapists and caregivers can use the vest for mobility training and muscle re education as part of therapeutic activity and a home exercise program
