The invention discloses a flexible hand rehabilitation exoskeleton and a working method thereof. The exoskeleton comprises a forearm wearing mechanism, a finger wearing mechanism, a palm wearing mechanism, a motor driving system and a myoelectricity induction system. The finger wearing mechanism comprises five finger cots in one-to-one correspondence with fingers of a human body; the palm wearing mechanism is used for being worn on the palm of the human body, and the finger wearing mechanism and the palm wearing mechanism are connected through a stepless adjusting mechanism. The motor driving system is connected with the finger wearing mechanism; the electromyographic sensing system is used for collecting electromyographic signals of the hand of the human body, the electromyographic sensing system processes the electromyographic signals through the central controller, meanwhile, the central controller can send different level signals to the motor driving system according to the electromyographic signals in di
