The use of these new ergonomic handrims can benefit individuals with decreased hand strength, decreased range of motion, and decreased sensation, thanks to their shape, their grip and their size.

Wheelchair users report less pain in the hand and wrist when they use an ergonomic handrim.

When using our new ergonomic handrims, the pressure on the hand’s surface during wheelchair propulsion is more equally distributed, resulting in improved efficiency. This can help decrease the risk of developing upper extremity injuries.
