Your Ulnar Nerve Injury Just Got a New Best Friend

I'm excited to announce that Virtual Hand Therapy is now the proud Australian distributor of the BRIDGEFLEX™ — a silicone hand assistant designed specifically for ulnar nerve injured hands.

 And this one has a story worth telling. 

This Wasn't Designed in a Lab

The BRIDGEFLEX™ was created by Christopher LaLonge, a first responder and firefighter from the USA who sustained a severe hand injury at work, including an ulnar nerve injury at the elbow. When existing options didn't cut it, he built something that did.

Every single detail of the BRIDGEFLEX™ reflects practical design born from real-world functional need. This isn't a product that came out of a boardroom brainstorm. It came from someone who lived it — someone who needed to restore independence, control and confidence in daily hand use and refused to accept that there wasn't a better option.

That origin story matters. It's the difference between a product that looks good on paper and one that actually works in someone's hands.

What the BRIDGEFELX™ Actually Does

If you've worked with ulnar nerve injuries — or lived with one — you know the struggle. The clawing, the weakness, the frustration of your hand simply not doing what you need it to do.

The BRIDGEFLEX™ is a lightweight silicone device that supports functional hand positioning, helping to bridge the gap between where the hand is and where it needs to be. It assists with restoring control and confidence in everyday hand function without being bulky or uncomfortable.

It's the kind of solution that makes you wonder why it didn't exist sooner. Except now you know — it took someone actually living with the injury to create it.

Why I'm Backing This One

I don't add products to the Virtual Hand Therapy suite just because they exist. They need to solve a real problem and make a genuine difference. The BRIDGEFLEX™ does both.

For clients managing ulnar nerve injuries, having a silicone assistant that supports daily function in a practical, comfortable way is significant. And for hand therapists, this gives you another evidence-informed tool that's easy to incorporate into treatment plans and makes a tangible difference to your clients' outcomes.
