I am trying to find an alternative harnessing strategy for a BE who is
experiencing a deteriorating contalateral shoulder, making the standard
figure 8 uncomfortable to the point of dysfunctional. The axilla loop is
the problem. He has no interest in a myo.
Are there any harnessing options that eliminate the axilla loop? I would
love any sketches or pictures of alternatives (or website references). He
has a very short limb, APRL hand and hook.
Thank you in advance.
