摘要: A hand held upper extremity rehabilitation and exercise device comprising two interconnecting pieces in the shape of a dowel or rectangle which contains corresponding apertures graded dimensions receiving flexible tubing ends through where one piece slides distally upon static decreasing aperture space subsequently initiating 3 point contact tubings within when tension are increased range motion by user. The utilizes principle inherent to elastic compression resistance during exerts force same perimeters sliding part moving parallel line pull resulting is always greater than disconnecting without device. most practical athletic training specific various diameters can be utilized individually simultaneously enhance clinical non strengthening programs throughout all planes joint extremities.
