Ep#021 of Healthcare Wayfinders, host Zach Aten sits down with inventor and entrepreneur Téa Phillips, the creator of the @metaflexglove —an FDA-cleared, drug-free solution for arthritis, carpal tunnel, and hand pain from everyday overuse.
What started as a school project to help her grandmother has become a powerful, affordable medical device used by hand surgeons, veterans, and people looking to live pain-free without expensive therapy or medications. Téa shares the emotional story behind the glove, how it works, and the challenges she overcame to bring it to life.
💡 What You’ll Learn:
✅ How the MetaFlex Glove helps manage arthritis and carpal tunnel naturally
✅ Why compression, resistance, and stretching are key to hand recovery
✅ Téa’s personal mission and what inspired her to invent the glove
✅ What it takes to bring a medical device to market (on a tight budget!)
✅ How MetaFlex is helping veterans, surgeons, mechanics, and everyday users
✅ Where to buy it—and how it’s now covered by insurance
