Discover a New Approach to Stroke Recovery

Kandu, Inc. will join us for a special presentation on IpsiHand, a breakthrough stroke rehabilitation system designed to help improve hand and arm function—from the comfort of your home.

IpsiHand is:

  • Easy to use at home
  • Safe and non-invasive
  • Backed by clinical evidence and FDA-cleared
  • Covered by Medicare

In this educational session, you will learn:

  • Recovery is still possible—even months or years after a stroke
  • How advanced technology can help reconnect your brain and hand
  • How an at-home therapy system can support daily progress
  • This unique technology works by detecting your brain’s intent to move your hand and helping turn those signals into real movement. It’s an excellent opportunity to learn about a cutting-edge therapy option, see a demo, and ask questions in a supportive environment.
