Kaiko's latest in the hand roller line up, the ET hand roller has almost reptile like texture & suitably weighted for awesome sensory input.

The texture adds a new sensory dimension and the texture can also be used as a picking support. Amazing for those that need to constantly keep hands busy & to assist with agitation and anxiety. 

Oil Slick ET Hand Roller - 265 gram - the more textured of 2 colours

It comes in a premium window tin

Rotate in your hand, roll between your palms or roll to massage are three great ways you can use them. To gain an idea of how they feel to use - if you have some fat textas on hand place two in the same hand, side by side, and rotate around themselves.

Some like to put the metallic ones in the fridge between uses.

Also helpful for hand function & we have had great outcomes using with individuals with dementia, Parkinson's, MS and other hand function difficulties.

• ET (extra textured) oil slick 265 gram / black 345 gram-  approx. 40mm overall width & 86mm length 

We get asked frequently if these are helpful for carpel tunnel.  It is important to seek your treating dr/ therapists opinion, but often they can be helpful. 

Hand squeeze exercises and tendon glide action are two exercises that are used for it and both are/can be emulated with the hand roller. Wrist stretch with weights is another and the hand roller can be used for that too. Generally best to keep selected weight to the lighter styles (180 gram or 100 gram).  You may feel a gentle pull or stretch during use.  However, should stop if experiencing any pain.
