Rehabilitation is a necessary but difficult and time-consuming process for recovering the full control and use of a joint after replacement surgery. Designed by an actual patient following his own surgery, the Peathry RehaBelt Joint Rehabilitation Device provides a simple method for exercising the replaced joint, facilitating and improving the rehabilitation process for individuals after knee, ankle, or hip replacement surgery. It also has additional use as a rehabilitation device for plantar fasciitis therapy. The Peathry RehaBelt is classified by the FDA as a Class 1, 510(k) exempt device.

A Simple Solution To A Difficult Problem

Following joint replacement surgery, patients are placed on a program of physical therapy to help them rehabilitate the replaced joint and achieve the best positive outcome. The Peathry RehaBelt Device provides a simple method for patients and physical therapists to help prevent contractures, strengthen muscles, and help the patient regain full control and use of the replaced joint. Contractures result from scarring of the tissues around the replaced joint. Contractures limit full range of motion and, therefore, impede mobility of the replaced joint. Once a contracture develops, it cannot be stretched or exercised away – it must be released via orthopedic surgery, an expensive and physically painful process for the patient. This makes a rigorous exercise regimen essential for recovering full use of a joint following replacement surgery.

It Actually Encourages Patients to Exercise as Directed.

The exercises used during joint replacement rehabilitation require moving the patient’s leg to help the joint recover its strength, flexibility, and full range of motion. However, following surgery, many patients do not have the strength and/or range of motion necessary to practice the essential exercises properly and frequently enough. The Peathry RehaBelt allows patients to exercise using their own body strength, enabling them to more easily perform the required exercises. The physical therapist and the patent then have the ability to gauge and adjust the exercises to fit the patient’s progress. This helps foster a positive attitude towards rehabilitation and can lead to a quicker and more complete recovery.

Simple. Efficient. Effective.

The Peathry RehaBelt Joint Rehabilitation Devices represent a new way to help patients return to normal life after joint replacement surgery. Its simple, robust design helps patients perform their rehabilitation exercises easily and encourages them to use it more frequently, potentially helping to speed recovery.
