3-Pack Stress Balls For Adults & Kids - The Friendly Swede Hand Squeezer Grip Strength Therapy Ball Bulk Set Review

Having experienced increased stiffness and weakness in my hands lately, I have tried a few different types of squeeze balls or cushions, with ho-hum results. This may have been because I expected too much, too soon, or that the simple squeeze action alone is simply not effective. The 3 firmness levels included in the package and the 5 exercises described make it possible to customize the activity to better address my needs. The only drawback is that the instructions are a bit sparse - I know…

I purchased these exercise balls to relieve the pain in my arthritic hands. I used the medium firmness while watching tv at night and the next day the discomfort in my hands was less painful. Also, since my daughter suffers from weakness in her hands due to MS, I gave her the softer one to try. They are well made and have no odor. After each use, I just rinse/wash with hand soap, dry and put away. I am very happy with product.

I suffer from severe hand and finger cramps. Squeezing a tennis ball and a baseball are good relief but, what I like most about these is the egg shape. It makes them have a more natural while small enough to take with you. I wish they could be purchased individually by strengths instead of all three. I would buy three more of the firmest and keep one in the car , one in the house and one to throw in my pocket or bag to travel with me. The lightest of all of them seems to be a little too soft…

Exactly the things to keep me from strangling irritating people I encounter daily. ::grinning::Seriously, however, gripping the softest one for a few minutes several times a day relieves the onset of arthritis in these creative hands, and along with a whole lot of turmeric and bromelain relieves the pain and allows me to knit, do daily tasks of life, home maintenance and small repairs, and allows me to FORGET I hurt for a few years more. Thank you "Friendly Swede."I'm betting these…

Had a similar product that consisted of (3) color coded 2" round balls. It was adequate but I was looking for a larger size to fit my larger hands. This product is perfect. They are egg shaped, color coded, with size up to 3". Looks like it will last for years. Very satisfied.

I ordered these egg shaped Friendly Swede grip strengtheners in order to keep my hand strength after I retired and no longer get the daily workout I received as an Electrician. They arrived quickly and are exactly as described. I was disappointed that they are made in China, as I am concerned about quality control and toxicity on many products from China. But I personalty so far have not had any adverse reactions. I like the fact that they are slightly tacky and being egg shaped, they are less…

I'm recently in a wheelchair due to degenerative central nervous system damage. I'm also an avid (obsessive?) knitter, which helps me to deal with the constant pain from the nerve damage.Moving through life on my arms instead of my legs has caused some shifting of pain and stiffness from my legs and feet to my shoulders and wrists. When the pain became so great that I couldn't even pick up a hairbrush without stabbing pain, much less knit (cook, type, dress myself…) I looked for exercise balls…

I liked these enough that I bought another set for my wife. She took them to her office for her employees to play with in the conference room.The egg shaped exercise balls are a nifty little idea. They, of course, work as a stress ball but they are superior. Their material and shape make them a good exercise tool. The 3 different levels of difficulty that come in the pack vary quite a bit. The easy is something you can squeeze for an hour. The most difficult will wear your hand out fairly…

Good size -- roughly the size of a real large egg; fit nicely in my palm. I was worried it might be a little small, but it's a good size -- not too small, not too big. As for firmness, between the three eggs, I suspect everyone will have the "right" level of resistance.My only disappointment -- and it's a minor one -- is that the eggs are quite gummy (or sticky) feeling, which isn't a problem when you're holding them, but I happened to drop one while attempting the between-the-fingers…

I bought these stress balls to help out slightly with grip strength and I feel like they do help. As far as relieving stress I feel it’s all in the mind. If you are using these balls and feel like they relieve stress then they relieve stress.

Just received the package today, and have tried all of the eggs.The egg measures at 6cm long, a little under 2.5 inches. They are about 4.1cm or 1.6" at the widest.The eggs are the right size for my palm, but may be too small for a man with large hands. For reference, my hand is about 9.5cm wide, from the joint of my thumb to the other edge of my palm, straight across.As of now, my favorite egg is the yellow. I consider myself a fairly athletic young person, but the yellow is the right…

Bought these for my son as he has severe anxiety and he believed a "stress ball" would help him out. Having seen other "stress balls" on the market, I was not impressed. He went through a couple and said they didn't really work, however he really likes these. I bought these for just two reasons - something for him to squeeze and something that will ultimately build his grip-strength and help him in other ways - especially since grip strength is vital to overall strength.He…

FRIENDLY SWEDE HAND GRIP STRENGTHENING STRESS RELIEF EXERCISE BALLSAbout a month ago I suffered severe muscle spasms in my neck, back, and shoulder. All these muscles are attached and even made my arm and hand feel wonky. After a trip to the ER -- and chest/heart xrays/EKG to rule out any heart problems -- it was determined I was having muscle spasms. I had been a lunch lady for 30 years and did plenty of repetitive work daily for all those years. Then I retired [yay!] and after a while, my…

I broke a finger about 9 months ago, and have been experiencing tightness and limited movement in my hand ever since the injury healed. Lately, I have noticed a lot of pain while golfing and thought I would try to exercise my hand and finger muscles to strengthen them. These eggs are absolutely great! First off, they don't have a bad smell like a lot of rubber products. I can use them without feeling the need to immediately wash my hands afterwards. The 3 options for firmness is also great…
