Questions and Answers
The
Weighted Hand Writing Glove
is a uniquely designed weighted pouch that comfortably fits on the back of the hand. The open palm and finger loops allow the user’s fingers and wrist to move freely. People who experience tremors during fine motor tasks will find this adapted hand weight provides excellent proprioceptive input and additional hand stability.
The HandiThings Weighted Hand Writing Glove is a durable Lycra material pouch that is double stitched for strength, and filled with lead free steel shot. The weight is held in place by elastic thumb and finger loops and a hook&loop (Velcro) wrist strap. Users will find this weight easy to put on and take off, and cooler to wear than a standard weighted glove. This adapted hand weight leaves the palm of the hand completely open. The HandiThings Hand Weight is filled with lead-free steel shot and will fit the left or right hand. Extra small has 1/4 lb. of weight, Small has 3/8 lb. of weight; Medium and Large have 1/2 lb. of weight. To determine the size needed, measure along the base of the index finger to the base of the little finger along the palm (MP joints across the palm of the hand).

Work Well
Both my mother and uncle now use them to write cards and checks. Both said it helps to reduce the shaking significantly.

Mr.
The glove is difficult to put on and the straps are too short to put on with one hand. Another inch of strap length would solve that problem. I do not like this product, will search for a better design:-(

Q:
Would this device help me control my computer mouse?
Asked by:
Jane
- 9/26/2017
A:
Yes, the weight on the top of the hand helps stabilize the tremors. Because the glove is on the top, your palm is left open, allowing you to grip the computer mouse normally.

Q:
Hi, My hand is 3 inches wide at the broadest part of my palm from pinky to index finger ( as described by your website). What size should I order?
Asked by:
Nidhi B
- 10/28/2018
A:
3 inches is right between the medium and large sizes. I would suggest getting the large because you would rather it be a little larger than too small, you can tighten it with the straps.

Q:
We are anticipating buying a small size glove. Can the various size weights all be used with the small size glove? We were anticipating that as tremors change the weights might be changed as well.
Asked by:
T. Woods
- 8/8/2017
A:
No, the weights in the glove are not interchangeable as they are sewn in. The weights are not a solid mass either, it is a bead fill.
