Long Reach Grabber - Don't Bend. Just Grab.

Long Reach Grabber - Don't Bend. Just Grab.

You've just had your surgery. You're home, you're recovering and then you drop a sock on the floor.

Sounds minor. But if you've been given movement restrictions following surgery, something as simple as a dropped sock can become a real challenge. Managing it without the right tool can put unnecessary strain on your recovery. It happens to almost everyone in those first few weeks and most people don't think to prepare for it until they're already in that situation.

This is the tool that solves it. A long handled grabber that lets you reach, grip, and retrieve objects from the floor reducing the need to bend, twist, or ask someone else to do it for you.

Get it before your surgery. Thank yourself later.

Why We Like This

This is a product we commonly point people to when preparing for hip surgery. Depending on your procedure and surgeon's advice, you may be given movement restrictions for a period of time that limit how far you can bend or reach. Having the right tools at home means you can work within those restrictions without losing your independence.

A sock on the floor shouldn't derail your recovery. This may help make sure it doesn't.

Key Features & Benefits

Long Reach

Extends your reach to the floor reducing the need to bend from a standing or seated position.

Trigger Grip Handle
Ergonomic pistol-style handle with a trigger mechanism. Easy to operate with one hand, including for those with reduced grip strength.

Lightweight Design
Easy to carry room to room and keep within reach throughout the day.

Versatile Jaw
Picks up a wide range of everyday objects, clothing, utensils, remotes, and more.

Hospital & Home Ready
Compact enough to take with you to hospital and use from day one of recovery.

Physio Pro Tip

Order this before your surgery date. Set up your home in advance, keep frequently used items at waist height, and have this grabber on your bedside table, in the bathroom, and in the kitchen. The more prepared you are before you go in, the smoother those first weeks at home may be.

Depending on your surgical approach and surgeon's instructions, you may be advised to avoid bending past a certain point for a period of time after surgery. Check with your surgeon or physio exactly what restrictions apply to you and have this ready before you come home.
