What does our product do?!

Our product is the 1st of its kind to be launched into the commercial market, and it’s being used to support neuro-affected patients (primarily stroke) who have lost function in their arms.

Essentially, we’re in a sister space to prosthetics. Our patients have all their limbs and digits but, in our case, they have a “dead” arm – meaning, an arm they are unable to use.

With our product – which is a brace equipped through the latest technologies to tap into our patients’ own brain (EMG) waves and amplify muscle tissue response – our patients are able to restore physical function!!

Since the device “links in” to our patients’ central nervous system, they say when they use our brace, that it feels like moving their own arm themselves. This is where our name is derived! Myomo is short for “My O*wn Mo*tion.”
