🩵Stability that moves with you. Strength that meets you where you are.

The MOVAO Mini’s stabilizing straps allow the 9 lb in-bed leg press to securely attach to a wide range of chairs and seating surfaces, so users can press safely while seated, not just in bed.

This means earlier mobility, more consistent strengthening, and safer progression for people recovering from surgery, rebuilding strength, or maintaining independence as they age.

From hospital to home, rehab to daily life, the MOVAO Mini is built to move with you!

🩵Does the MOVAO Mini have an advantage over manual resistance from a caregiver? Yes...
Manual resistance and basic in bed exercises only load part of th emovment. There's little resistance at full extension and none on the return, limiting true strength gains and relying on the helper's endurance.
The MOVAO Mini changes that. With up to 66 lbs of elastic resistance people train all 3 phases of muscle contractions!

🩵Did you know the MOVAO Mini is HSA and FSA eligible on Amazon? That means you can use pre-tax dollars to purchase a portable, in-bed leg press designed to help rebuild strength and independence.

When a product is marked “HSA/FSA Eligible,” it qualifies as a medical expense under IRS guidelines—making it easier and more affordable to invest in your recovery and mobility. Whether you’re managing weakness from surgery, illness, or a neurological condition, the MOVAO Mini can be purchased with funds you’ve already set aside for health care.

🩵Great day at UTMB Galveston, providing hands-on in-service training with the MOVAO Mini and Bari. From the ICU to the burn unit, better tools, lead to stronger patients and better outcomes! Grateful to have met this team!

🩵Every movement matters, especially when strength is limited.
A therapist recently shared her experience with an incredible amputee who is using the MOVAO Mini to keep his remaining leg strong. After limb loss, the unaffected leg carries extra responsibility. Maintaining muscle strength and joint mobility becomes critical for balance, transfers, and everyday independence.
The MOVAO Mini gives him a safe, progressive way to exercise right from his chair or bed. With up to 66 pounds of adjustable resistance, he can train at his own level, build endurance, and stay active.
Disability doesn’t mean inactivity. With the right tools, people can continue to grow stronger, stay independent, and keep doing the things that matter most.
Movement truly is medicine.

🩵 We are proud to introduce the MOVAO Mini. A portable, clinician-designed strength tool created to bridge the gap between ICU rehabilitation and home recovery.
Developed by Darin Trees, DPT, a leader in early mobilization and medically complex patient recovery, the MOVAO Mini brings purposeful, progressive resistance training out of the clinic and into where patients spend most of their time: home, bed, or chair.
Why it matters:
• Clinically informed design rooted in early mobilization principles
• Portable and easy to use in any setting
• Adjustable resistance up to 66 lbs for meaningful strength gains
• Supports improved circulation, muscle activation, and functional capacity
• Empowers patients to stay active outside traditional therapy sessions
At just $199, the MOVAO Mini makes therapeutic strength training accessible and affordable for patients transitioning from acute care to long-term recovery.
By placing effective rehabilitation tools into patients’ hands (literally), we help reduce functional decline and support stronger, more confident returns to daily life.
Movement is medicine, and it shouldn’t have to wait.

🩵Extreme muscle weakness can happen to anyone, after illness, surgery, neurological conditions, or simply from the challenges of aging and bedrest. For people living with MS, Guillain-Barré Syndrome, stroke recovery, or age-related weakness, rebuilding strength can feel impossible.

The MOVAO Mini was created for this exact moment.

This portable, in-bed leg press delivers safe, progressive resistance so users can strengthen their legs without standing, without transferring, and without leaving the bed. Small movements lead to real gains—improved circulation, stronger muscles, better mobility, and renewed confidence.

Strength builds independence. Independence builds quality of life.

Wherever you are in your recovery journey, the MOVAO Mini meets you there and helps you move forward.
