How might we help people with problems in their hands to improve their condition in a playful way?
This question guided me throughout the project. The result is a small family of products that strengthen hand muscles, improve fine motor skills, and help relieve pain — all in a playful way. And the best part is, there is no need to hide them.
The ball specifically strengthens the hand muscles.
It allows the training of individual fingers and various grip types which is essential for many everyday tasks. In addition to conventional hand strengthening, the thumb is also included in the gripping exercises.
The cone functions like a hand warmer,
but can be used with either heat or cold. Thanks to its special lattice structure, the temperature is evenly released to the outside. This allows people with conditions like arthritis to gently warm up and activate their hands
in the morning, or to massage and relax them in the evening after work.
The conical shape supports the targeted use.
The ring helps to keep the hand flexible and mobile.
After injuries, surgeries, or neurological conditions – such as a stroke – an imbalance in the hand muscles can occur. The flexor muscles are often stronger and tend to shorten even more. The ring specifically activates the extensor muscles, helping to prevent long-term stiffness and maintain functional movement.
