The Parkinson's Kit includes items every Parkinson's patient or person with Ataxia will find essential for daily use. These items are the KEatlery Weighted Utensil Set, the Weighted Insulated Mug, the Weighted Universal Holder for Pens and Pencils and the Weighted Universal Holder to hold any round or irregular shaped object up to 1/2 inch in diameter.
Each item is specifically designed to be heavy weighted for use by people with Parkinson's disease, Ataxia and other neurological disorders that cause the hands to shake or that cause the hands to tremor. The weight of each item decrease the tremors or shaking, allowing users to maintain better control of the item for independent use, eliminating the need for a caregiver.
The KEatlery Weighted Utensil set is made from polished 18/0 quality stainless steel and include a tablespoon, a soup spoon, a fork, and a knife. The handles feature a slight indentation to place the fingers in a comfortable, ergonomical position. The soup spoon has a recessed edge and a slightly deeper bowl to assist with preventing spillage. Each utensil weighs approximately 7 ounces and is dishwasher safe.
The Weighted, Insulated Mug holds up to 12 ounces and come with a lid. It's made with a steel weight added internally to help reduce tremors and insulated to keep hot contents hot and cold contents cold. (NOT MICROWAVABLE!)
The Universal Holder for Pens and Pencils will securely hold most round or irregular shaped items (1/8" to 7/16").
