Neater Arm Support - K
(NASK)
The Neater Arm Support is designed to aid individuals with muscle weakness by utilizing a unique power drive system. Unlike other arm supports, it requires minimal user movement and can be attached to a powered wheelchair for assistance. Its friction-free arms enable fluid movement, while the sling frame automatically adjusts to bring the hand to a functional position. This innovative support system effectively counters gravity, allowing users to use their arms more effectively.
