BioHealthCore’s SoundBody Grip: Transforming Rehabilitation with Digital Precision

BioHealthCore's SoundBody Grip

BioHealthCore's SoundBody Grip

In an era marked by the relentless pursuit of cutting-edge healthcare innovations, BioHealthCore, a Korean startup, is at the forefront with its groundbreaking product, SoundBody Grip. This innovative digital healthcare ICT device, primarily designed as a grip training and hand movement device, is poised to redefine how we approach rehabilitation, fitness, and overall well-being. 

SoundBody Grip not only measures grip strength but also monitors Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and crafts personalized grip strength training plans, making it a game-changer in the world of healthcare and wellness.

Recent research has unveiled the strong correlation between grip strength and overall health. SEHAN – UNIVERSITY (Department of AI & Big-data) and Gangwon National University (Department of Physical Therapy) have  conclusively established that maintaining grip strength is crucial for effective rehabilitation post-surgery and the prevention of upper extremity diseases associated with aging. BioHealthCore has taken this research to heart and developed SoundBody Grip to address these pressing health concerns.

SoundBody Grip: More than Just a Grip Training Device

SoundBody Grip is not an ordinary grip training device. It goes beyond simply measuring grip strength; it also monitors Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and formulates personalized grip strength training plans. This unique combination of hardware and software offers engaging training games that make rehabilitation and exercise a fun and motivating experience.

One of the device’s standout features is its ability to connect with other devices, making it a valuable tool for physiotherapists. It allows healthcare professionals to monitor the upper body muscles of elderly and rehabilitation patients, ensuring that they receive the best possible care.

One of the critical challenges in healthcare is motivating patients to adhere to their exercise regimens, especially when recovering from injuries or surgeries. SoundBody Grip addresses this issue head-on by incorporating gamification into hand and upper body exercises. Patients can now exercise at home in an engaging and enjoyable way, which is essential for long-term recovery.

SoundBody Grip not only motivates patients but also provides quantifiable data for healthcare providers. It monitors improvements in grip strength and HRV, allowing doctors to make data-driven decisions about their patients’ progress and adapt their treatment plans accordingly. This data-driven approach enhances patient care and contributes to better health outcomes.

Expanding Possibilities: 2023 and Beyond

BioHealthCore has achieved significant milestones in 2022, with the completion of the SoundBody Prototype and the acquisition of CE and FCC certifications, along with patents in the EU and US. The company has also showcased its product at prominent exhibitions, including MEDICA, TechBBQ, and CES.

In 2023, BioHealthCore is taking its innovation to the next level. They have initiated pilot studies in Korea. Furthermore, the company is expanding its reach to the global market, focusing on B2B collaborations with hospitals and nursing facilities. Key partnerships in France, Finland, and Denmark signal a promising future for SoundBody Grip as it gains recognition on the international stage.
