Gaiam Restore Hand Therapy Exercise Ball Kit - 3-Level Hand Grip Strengthener Massage Balls (Soft, Medium, Firm) for Physical Therapy & Hand Pain Relief, Ease Muscle Tension with Hand Balls - Set of 3

I’ve completely ruined my hands working as a data analyst at an old company that still has me input data manually from paper to my electronic file. Needless to say, that means I do a whole lot of typing. At the end of the work week, I find my hands are incredible sore, and that little bone at the end of my wrist is always out of alignment, which a massage therapist once told me means I’m out of alignment. At any rate, a friend of mine recommending getting something to exercise my hands with when I’m not furiously typing at work. She said that it would work out my muscles, making my hands stronger as well as stretching them out from their cramped typed in position. Okay. I found these balls on Amazon, and after reading the reviews, decided to give them a shot. They came in the mail rather quickly, and I started using them right away. At first, I wasn’t quite sure of what I was doing, and then I googled ‘exercise hand ball video’ and saw a video on youtube that showed me the proper way to do it. After about 30 minutes of this on my lunch break, I started working again and my hands felt so much better than they normally did. They worked like a charm, and as the weeks went on I saw that the strength in my hands maximized, while the soreness in my hands and wrists after working steadily decreased. When they are feeling sore though, I rub on this cream that I use after cross fit ThermaChill Pain Relief Roll On Cold Therapy, 3 fl oz. - Top Choice for Arthritis, Migraine Relief, Joint & Muscle Pain - Limited Time Offer: Buy 1 Get 1 Free! it works the same way as any topical ointment, cool and then warm and soothing, except it lasts for like, five hours at a time. At any rate, definitely get these little exercise balls, they completely changed everything for me at work.

As a licensed massage therapist, I was looking for different ways to help maintain my hand and wrist health. I remember using very similar equipment when I went through massage school, so I thought that I would try these out. I love these! I can use them while I work on paperwork or during my exercise routine. I love that they provide sample exercises, and how the balls are colored to gauge difficulty. I wouldn't recommend using them as massage tools for anyone wanting something to help save your hands while massaging, but they are fantastic to help maintain your hands and to even help strengthen your hands when used properly. For anyone who wants to use these to help with their physical therapy, I would suggest checking with your physical therapist prior to buying any equipment. However, if you get the okay, these are a great starter set. You will want to keep your DPT appraised of everything that you are trying though to help prevent you from overdoing it and to make sure that you are performing your exercises properly and at the appropriate difficulty.

I type a lot for work and after a while I started to get joint and muscle pains around my fingers, hands and forearms. This product helped relieve stress on many of my joints and each ball has a different level of firmness to increase your muscle strength. The constant movements made by squeezing the ball is also very therapeutic!

I very much enjoy these! They have a great feel and surely help with stretching and working my fingers. I really enjoy having a variety of balls in there so I can use it for he appropriate workout! The set comes with some instructions and Hand Workouts for the Balls as listed in the pictures. Very good for the price and I surely recommend it to everyone who has Finger issue or just needs to stretch and maintain a good finger strength!

These have been a lifesaver! I've been having extreme hand cramping lately to the point where my hand would hurt whenever I held anything and working in a kitchen, I needed something to relieve the pain ASAP. The hardest ball is good at really massaging the muscles in my hand thoroughly and relieving the pain. The guide of exercises that come with these work out and work muscles in my hand that I didn't even know I had. A month after I've purchased these, my hand pain has substantially decreased. I highly recommend these if you need relief from any hand pain!

I bought these mostly as a fidget toy, to keep my free hand busy when I'm mousing around on the computer, but figured it'd be nice to work on my grip strength at the same time. The included sheet of exercises is kind of nice to guide you through some different ways to work out your hands with these balls, but the balls themselves are a bit disappointing. The material they're made from is pretty sticky; I have a dog, so I have to be extra careful not to drop these or put them down anywhere but in their plastic packaging tray (which I kept for just this reason) because dog hair sticks to them very easily. (You know those little tiny hand-shaped toys that you fling at a wall and they stick? It feels a lot like that.) They're made of a sort of translucent jelly-like material that's surprisingly hardy; I was afraid my fingernails might scratch or cut it but it's still in good shape. The three balls are different firmnesses so you can graduate to the firmer ones as your hands get stronger; I like the turquoise one best just because it's the least sticky. I tried giving them a wash and it didn't improve the stickiness; I'd hope it'll go away after enough use, but they're showing no signs of de-sticking yet, and I don't use them as much as I should because I find the texture of them kind of off-putting. (If you have sensory issues, these might not be the best choice.)

Quedan bien para hacer los ejercicios recomendados por el médico y además trae un instructivo donde enseña cómo hacerlos, son de buena calidad, ya llevo 1 mes usándolos diario y no hay desgaste y aunque cuando se caen se pueden ensuciar un poco son muy fáciles de lavar y secar.

Sehr Gutes Produkt,Fühlt Gut und Komfortabel an.Kann man ohne weitere Anbefehlen, Nicht gerade Billig aber jeder Cent Wert.Keine Ahnung was ich noch mehr sagen kann :-)

The balls stick to ceiling very well. Very enjoyable product! Not bad as a hand therapy kit as well.

La calidad de los materiales de las pelotitas es excelente, contiene tres tipos de dureza, que te ayudaran a fortalecer la fuerza en tus manos, fueron un regalo para una persona que necesita hacer terapias para sus manos y le encantaron.

Habe die Bälle meiner Freundin gekauft. Sie liegen sehr gut und angenehm in der Hand und erfüllen durch die unterschiedlichen Härtegrade ihren Zweck .
