The CanDo Overdoor Shoulder Pulley uses a simple single-pulley system with a rigid metal door bracket for assisted shoulder range-of-motion exercise. A continuous rope runs through the pulley with a handle at each end; pulling one handle downward raises the opposite handle, allowing one arm to help guide the other through the selected movement while the assisting arm controls the pace and extent of exercise.
The pulley supports shoulder flexion, abduction, internal rotation and external rotation. Exercises can be performed seated or standing, while changing the attachment position alters the direction of assistance for different shoulder movements. The adjustable rope length helps accommodate different users, exercise positions and movement requirements.
The rigid metal bracket can be positioned at the top, side or bottom of a compatible door to change pulley height and direction without requiring a permanent exercise station. A 360° swivel pulley promotes smooth rope movement, while adjustable ROM stoppers help control pulley travel and foam-covered handles provide a comfortable grip during repeated range-of-motion practice.
Rehabilitation Exercise Applications:
- Shoulder range-of-motion & assisted mobility
- Shoulder & upper-body stretching
- Shoulder flexion & abduction
- Internal & external rotation
- Restricted shoulder movement & rehabilitation programmes
- Prescribed home exercise
- Seated & standing shoulder exercise
Benefits For Shoulder Mobility:
- Assisted Shoulder Movement: Lets one arm help guide the other through the prescribed range of motion.
- User-Controlled Exercise: Allows the assisting arm to regulate the pace and extent of each movement.
- Adaptable Movement Direction: Reposition the pulley to change the line of pull for different shoulder exercises.
- Flexible Exercise Positioning: Supports controlled shoulder exercise while seated or standing.
- Repeated ROM Practice: Provides a simple way to repeat prescribed shoulder movements through a controlled range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
- How is the metal door bracket positioned for different exercises?
The bracket can be repositioned at the top, side or bottom of a compatible door to change the pulley height and direction of pull for different shoulder movements. - Can the pulley be used while seated or standing?
Yes. The adjustable rope length and repositionable pulley setup support both seated and standing shoulder exercises, depending on the movement and prescribed programme. - Why is the rope length adjustable?
Adjusting the rope helps accommodate different user heights, exercise positions and shoulder movements. Excess rope can be stored within the handles once the required length has been set. - What do the adjustable ROM stoppers do?
The stoppers create an adjustable physical limit for pulley travel, helping control how far the pulley moves through the prescribed range during exercise. - Is this shoulder pulley designed for strengthening?
Its primary purpose is shoulder range-of-motion, mobility and stretching rather than resistance-based strengthening. It does not use added weights or an adjustable resistance system.
