OT-Approved Tools That Restore Confidence and Control
💡 Why This Gift Guide Matters
Parkinson’s can affect balance, coordination, and independence — but with the right tools, everyday routines can feel easier and more empowering.
Every item in AskSAMIE’s Parkinson’s Collection has been selected and tested by occupational therapists for safety, comfort, and function.
These gifts make it possible for your loved one to maintain control and confidence while reducing frustration and fatigue.
🧩 Top OT-Approved Gift Recommendations
1. Easy On Clothing
Magnetic buttons shirts, easy on pants, and step in shoes that all look like your style - not medical gear. These make great gifts because so often people don’t spend on new things for themselves. But everyone deserves to look and feel good!

2. Steadi-3
Counteracts tremors with an old technology that keeps building upright during an earthquake! Great for those with moderate to severe tremors. No app and no charging needed!
3. NexStride
Turn any mobility device into a specialized device for Parkinson’s by adding this automatic cueing device. Comes with a metronome and laser line - both proven to help prevent freezing that often happens while walking with Parkinson’s.
4. Gyenno Steady Spoon
One of the most innovative tools for tremor control.
This smart spoon uses motion-sensing technology to keep food steady and reduce spills, restoring dignity and independence at mealtime.
5. Easy Grip Dressing Aids
Elastic shoelaces, button hooks, and zipper pulls simplify daily dressing routines and help your loved one start their day independently.
6. Bed Rail & Bed Step Combo
Improves nighttime safety and confidence. The bed rail provides balance and leverage, while the bed step makes getting in and out of higher mattresses easier.
