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

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

Sounds minor. But if your surgeon has told you not to bend past 90 degrees, that sock on the floor is a real problem. Bending to pick it up could put your new hip at risk. 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 without bending, twisting, or asking someone else to do it for you.

Get it before your surgery. Thank yourself later.

Why We Like This

This is one of the first things we recommend to anyone preparing for a hip replacement. Surgical precautions particularly after a posterior hip replacement typically last around six weeks and restrict how far you can bend. The restrictions are there for good reason, and having the right tools at home means you can stick to them without losing your independence.

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

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 will be.

If you're having a posterior hip replacement, your surgeon will likely advise you not to bend your hip past 90 degrees for around six weeks post surgery. This means no leaning forward past a right angle, no reaching to the floor, and no picking things up by bending over.
