The
Weighted Pencil with The Grip
is a therapeutic product designed to help improve handwriting legibility by reducing tremors, reducing fatigue, and increasing muscle strength. This weighted writing aid combines two unique, beneficial features - added weight and a patented ergonomic grip.
The added weight of the Weighted Pencil with The Grip allows it to rest effortlessly rest in the hand, so the user does not need to provide downward pressure for writing. The pencil also helps to reduce writing fatigue by decreasing the burden on smaller, more sensitive hand muscles while encouraging support from larger muscles in the arm. The ergonomic grip is called The Pencil Grip and gently positions fingers in the proper, ergonomic position for gripping. The unique shape was designed by a doctor for hand comfort and to increase control. The grip helps the hand to relax for writing without fatiguing by reducing stress on the fingers. The grip has a letters printed which designate the right or left thumb positioning so that the other fingers are also positioned correctly on the underside of the grip.
Nine 2.0 mm graphite refills are included with the Heavyweight Pencil.

Weighted Pencil
I am very disappointed with this item. First, I was mistaken and thought this was a pen; my error, didn't read carefully. Given that, I have not been able to get the pencil to work. I've tried pushing down on the clicker but to no avail. There were no instructions with a pencil, so I don't know what to do to solve my problem. Finally, the pencil arrived in plastic packaging material that was extremely difficult to open. For someone with hand difficulties, this was particularly frustrating, especially when it came from a company that specializes in helping people with limitations.

recommended for anyone with essential tremor
My mom has essential tremor. This weighted pencil has helped improve her handwriting. The little grip on it makes it easier to hold.
