Why we know this works!
We love these gel pads because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we spend mealtime sessions watching plates slide and cups creep across the table while someone works twice as hard just to eat. How do you keep dishes from sliding without buying expensive Dycem? These small round non-slip gel pads do a similar job at a fraction of the cost: set one under a plate, cup, or oddly shaped item and it stays put, which makes one-handed eating and everyday tasks far more doable. The 5 pack is reusable, and a quick rinse restores the grip when they pick up dust.
They are especially useful for people with Parkinson's tremors, arthritis, or one-handed eating after a stroke. Each pad only covers a small spot; if you want to line a whole tray, countertop, or drawer, cut pieces from the Dycem Bulk Roll instead.
