Five Useful Dressing Aids

After looking around the internet it didn’t take me long to see that there wasn’t a lot of information regarding useful dressing aids. I decided this wasn’t good enough so I have chosen to provide this blog post which lists some useful products.

Zip Puller With Built up Handle
Price: £4.47

For people who lack fine motor co-ordination or have a weak grip, this zip puller has a large, built up handle and can help users to raise or lower awkward zips.

Handle width 38mm (11/2").
Weight 120g.

Dressing Stick
Price: £5.96

This wooden stick with rubber tip at one end, and special double wire hook at the other, is used to pull on or push off garments that cannot be reached easily e.g. socks. Length 520mm (21"). Weight 236g.

Beauty Grooming Range
Price: £13.62

The beauty body care range is ergonomically designed and carefully balanced to provide maximum power with minimal effort and strain. Each product has a unique shape that makes it easier to reach further.

Both the comb and the brush are shaped to follow the curve of the head, allowing the handle to be held close to the body without losing power or reach.

Unique indented channel on the inside of the centre cone acts as a feel guide and keeps the foot in the perfect position while effortlessly pulling on the compression stocking.
