Chicago, IL, October 21, 2007 --(
PR.com)-- The structure of the Twiddle Muff resembles hand warmers made popular in the 1950s and 60s. But manufacturer BeauLily evolved the hand warmer design to include a variety of tactile fabrics and objects to stimulate the senses and hand movement – great therapy especially for the elderly afflicted with arthritis or Alzheimer’s disease.
Once you slip your hands inside, you can wrap your fingers around a soft squeezie ball, giving your hands the exercise most recommended by therapists for stiff and cold arthritic hands. On the outside of the TwiddleMuff, your fingers can explore loops of wooden beads, sliding them back and forth in the tradition of the Greek worry beads. Textured ribbons create a different sensation as they gently slide between fingers. All TwiddleMuffs include a satin marble bag, which rests easily in your palm and enables you to jostle the marbles about. Each muff also includes a challenging Velcro® pull with a handy little lip that gives you a grip to pull open the hook and loop tab.
TwiddleMuffs are available in a variety of styles, including TwiddleCats and TwiddlePups – all designed to provide companionship while users keep their hands active.
The TwiddleMuff was originally designed for BeauLily owner Margaret Light’s 90-year-old grandmother, Lily, who became unable to participate in the activities she once enjoyed. Now they have become practical gifts – especially for those loved ones who are no longer able to perform some activities they once enjoyed.
