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.
