1. Kuhn Rikon Ratchet Grinder

 

 

The Kuhn Rikon Ratchet Grinder, or mill, is as efficient as it is exquisite. A high performance ratchet operating mechanism and a durable ceramic grinding stone combine for easy, effective grinding of salt, pepper and spices.

The clever ratchet design provides a large, easy grip ‘ball’ handle that minimises any fine pinching and gripping required for standard grinders. In conjunction with the extra leverage of the handle, this product makes it a breeze for anyone with arthritis or other disability that reduces hand strength.

To grind, simply pull the ratchet handle back and forth – it’s easy on the wrists and particularly suitable for those with dexterity problems.

4. Kuhn Rikon Easy Jar Opener - great for arthritis sufferers.

5. Arthritis Pens

 

If your loved ones suffer arthritis in hands, the well-designed arthritis ring pen takes most of the tremor and muscle pain out of handling a pen. Easy to use, one finger goes through the ring creating a solid grip and the ergonomically designed barrel provides a natural resting place for the writing finger. The barrel fits snugly between two other fingers eliminating pressure and pain. Can also be used as a toe pen.

This ergonomically designed pen is suitable for right or left-handed people who may experience difficulty in holding a normal pen due to conditions of arthritis, tremors, and lack of hand and forearm muscle tone.  Its design provides added control and support to the writer.

The Arthritis Ring Pen Ultra uses the same ergonomic principles as the original Ring-Pen, but can be removed and used on your own pen, pencil, paintbrush, cutlery, toothbrush.

6. The Keywing key turner - of course!

 

Many of our customers discover the Keywing during their search for a thoughtful gift for those with arthritis. We thought remiss not to include it in this list for those readers who haven't seen it before. The Keywing is a helpful everyday product that clips on to keys to provide additional surface area and make them much easier to find, grip and turn - reducing pain for those living with rheumatoid arthritis.

• Grip Keys with Ease: The comfortable dimpled domes give fingers a firm grip to stop you fumbling & dropping keys. The nylon body provides a ‘warm’ touch point for cold fingers.
• Turn Keys with Ease: When clipped in place the Keywing provides extra leverage so that far less strength is required to hold and turn a key, helping to reduce hand pain.
• Find Keys with Ease: The range of attractive, vibrant colours remove the frustration of guessing 'which key is which' and makes them easy to identify.
