Myomo, Inc. is a medical myoelectric company that offers expanded mobility for those suffering from neurological disorders and upper-limb paralysis. Myomo develops and markets the MyoPro® product line of lightweight, non-invasive, powered arm braces (orthoses) to restore function in the paralyzed or weakened arms and hands of individuals that have suffered a stroke, spinal cord or nerve injury such as brachial plexus injury, or other neuro-muscular disability such as multiple sclerosis (MS). It is the only device that, sensing a patient’s own neurological signals through non-invasive sensors on the arm, can restore their ability to use their arms and hands so that they can return to work, live independently and reduce their cost of care.
At Myomo, we are driven by a mission to enable independence and confidence for stroke survivors as well as those living with MS, BPI, and other neurological disorders. Our teams continue to break through barriers, defining the limits of what is possible in both medical device robotics and our global system of care.
