Dear Tony,

 

I'd like to thank you for providing me the opportunity to use your Flex-A-Grip during the recovery and rehab from my recent elbow surgery. The Flex-A-Grip is a wonderful rehab tool. It is very adaptable and allows the user a variety of workout options and adjustments for resistance. I also like the design which makes it easy to store and carry with you anywhere you go.

I encourage the use of the Flex-A-Grip as part of an effective rehab program.

Sincerely,

Jody Schulz

Philadelphia Eagles 1983-1987

To Whom It May Concern:

The Orthopedic Center in Easton, Maryland, has used the Hand and Wrist Exercise Machine of Mr. A.J. Dawson over the past six months. It has had a uniformly positive response from patients whom have used it. We have used it primarily in the rehabilitation of forearm, wrist and hand function following wrist injuries, with or without surgery, and overall we, and the patients, are very pleased.

We heartedly endorse the use of this device for patients in these categories.

To Whom it May Concern,

Tony Dawson was kind enough to allow us to utilize his wrist and hand rehabilitation unit. It was truly a unique machine. Our hand patients enjoyed the variety it gave them in its use. Our certified hand therapists appreciated its portability and versatility. As physical therapist for the Philadelphia 76'ers, I had the opportunity to utilize it with some of our players. The players found it to be a challenging pace that nicely emphasized dexterity and intrinsic muscle strength so vital in basketball.

Thank you for the opportunity to test the new Hand & Wrist Machine at our physical therapy facility. Our therapists found your exercise machine to be innovative, challenging, and fun for our hand, orthopedic, and neurological patients. It is a fresh approach to hand rehabilitation, and an exciting new strengthening device for the wrist, hand, and fingers. We feel this device will be a valuable asset for physical therapists.

Sincerely,

Charles Amendola, Coachella Valley Kinematic Center

We appreciated the opportunity to meet you and utilize your Hand/Wrist exercise system. Our staff had the chance to expose two of our patients to the system where we found it to be quite easy to use and had very favorable comments from the patients.

One patient, a post partum stroke victim found the response to finger dexterity and flexibility was exciting. The other, a post surgical patient (rotator cuff) had suffered significant loss of grip strength and dexterity. He was pleased with the ease of use and how it effected the muscles in his hand at the same time. Positive reinforcement of a patients ability to perform therapeutic tasks is essential to their recovery. Your system addresses this quite well.

We wish you all the best in your efforts to introduce this new and effective rehab tool.

Tony,

Thank-you for allowing us to use your hand and wrist exercise. I also want to apologize for holding on to it so long! Please know that I'll buy it or send it back to you soon.

Our players have gotten some good use out of it. It sits on the corner of a shelf in the training room and players walk in and use it for sprained wrists, fingers, thumbs and just sore hands all the time. I use it quite a bit for rehabbing hand and wrist injuries and have found it to be the easiest to use while still being a complex tool. You can invent different exercises for specific injuries, which you really can't do with other machines built for treating and rehabbing hand and wrist injuries.

Plus, the thing is so light and easy to pack so it goes with us everywhere. You've put together a nice, efficient piece of equipment and I appreciate you letting us check it out.

Good luck with everything.

Gregory Smith, MS, ATC / Tim Clark M. ED, ATC - Washing Capitals

Professional hockey produces a fair number of hand and wrist injuries. We are always looking for new therapy tools to help return our athletes to the ice.

Mr. Dawson the inventor of the Hand & Wrist Exercise Machine lent our medical staff one of his machines to use on our athletes. Mr. Dawson presented his exercise machine to our medical staff. Following his inservice we agreed that the Hand & Wrist Exercise Machine will be very beneficial in maintaining strength, and achieving maximum hand and wrist ROM.

The Washington Capitals' medical staff is very excited about using Mr. Dawson's product for our hand and wrist rehabilitation. We would like to thank Mr. Dawson for the use of his product.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

RE: Mr Anthony Dawson

After reviewing the kinetic device Mr. Dawson has developed and recently demonstrated to me, it is my opinion that its intended purpose, i.e. the isolation and exercise resistance of the particular forearm muscular grouping utilized by tennis players, would appear to provide beneficial results via proper usage and repetition. Its portability feature would certainly lend itself for use in travel. My sincere best wishes to Mr Dawson in his efforts to assist in the progression and subsequent enhanced enjoyment of our great sport.
