🟡 Improve Hand Strength and Foot Mobility with Franklin Easy Grip Balls
Share
Build coordination, reduce tension, and restore small joint mobility — with a simple tool that fits in the palm of your hand.
The Franklin Easy Grip Ball Set is specially designed for small-muscle work. Slightly smaller and softer than standard Franklin balls, these tools are perfect for focused release in the hands, feet, and forearms. They’re widely used in Pilates, hand therapy, and neurorehabilitation — and they travel easily in a studio bag or coat pocket.
✋ Why Use Easy Grip Balls?
Small joints like the fingers, toes, and wrists are often overlooked in mobility work — but they play a big role in:
- Hand strength and coordination
- Grip endurance and fine motor control
- Sensory awareness and brain-body mapping
- Functional balance and fall prevention
Whether you're recovering from overuse, managing arthritis, or just want better foot and hand awareness in your Pilates practice, these balls are a simple and powerful solution.
🖐️ Simple Exercises for Hands & Feet
🟡 Use these drills as part of a warm-up or standalone session.
-
Palm Rolling
Place a ball in your palm and roll it in circles using gentle pressure. Move it across the base of the fingers and wrist. Switch sides. -
Finger Press & Release
Gently squeeze the ball with all five fingers, then slowly release. Repeat 10x. This trains controlled grip without over-tensioning the forearm. -
Foot Mobilisation
Place a ball under the foot (heel seated or standing). Slowly roll from toe pads to heel, then across the arch. Use light pressure — the smaller size targets fascia more precisely. -
Between Joints
Use the ball between the toes or fingers, gently rolling to create space and improve circulation.
👥 Who They're Great For
- Pilates instructors working with older clients or hand mobility issues
- Rehab clients post-surgery or recovering from overuse
- Musicians, typists, and athletes (e.g., racquet sports)
- Anyone wanting better control in hand-foot patterning and core connection
