Something about constantly having something touching your limbs helps your brain to be aware of where they are and what they are doing. These are cool as they're open palmed so I can still do everything with them on, and they're weighted so my tremors are cut down a bit. Plus when I shake my hands it sounds like I have maracas on my hands hehe
@LadyAlyxandrea Better product then I saw! Awesome.
Also have been asked a million times about glove and sleeve. I keep wanting to say "Michael Jackson Tribute". Is that wrong?
