Benefits

FEATURES:

  • Finger/Hand Therapy & Rehabilitation (OTs / PTs / CHTs / RMI / RA)
  • Musicians of any instruments (including percussion)
  • Athletes of ALL Levels
  • Gamers of ALL Levels

FingerWeights apply the basic principles of progressive resistance training as a means to increase gentle range of motion, endurance, flexibility, dexterity, precision, and overall strength. Both the Original and Flex provide proprioceptive and kinesthetic input so the person can better sense the position of their fingers and the movement of their fingers.

Under the guidance of a healthcare professional, FingerWeights can be part of a therapeutic program to treat a number of disorders of the hands and fingers and as part of a post-surgical rehab program. People with stroke, carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, Parkinson’s Disease, and other medical conditions affecting finger strength, coordination, and proprioception can benefit from FingerWeights. 

Along with the more obvious health and wellness aspects, musicians, athletes, and gamers, looking for that edge, will also benefit from utilizing FingerWeights to increase endurance, flexibility, dexterity, precision, gentle range of motion, and overall strength.
