does this make your fingers thicker? Would this product help with that?

No - there are no muscles in your fingers! For finger health exercises, try Treat Your Own Hand and Thumb Osteoarthritis.

It could be a problem. I would ask the manufacturer. I know there is one brand that claims to be immune to effect from nails, because it uses a different measurement technique. The most common are the ones like the Nonin, which use light shined into the finger to sense the blood oxygen content and pulse.

No it does not. But If you already bought it go ahead, however in 4 weeks you won't see a difference. My problem with this product is that they market it to cure fungus and make your toes & fingers look better. Then once you buy it, it's directions say don't use on nails.

No! Its actually fairly thin and doesn't really add too much thickness. I'm not using a sleeve though, so I cannot offer much there, but all in all, it's fairly thin.

I think it will help clenching. You will still be able to curl your fingers a little but the padding in the palm area of your hand will keep you from clenching. I am using mine and it is really helping with my hands/arms going numb. I put them on and adjusted them to be tight but comfortable and I can still slip them off and then on again without undoing the velcro.

No, I don't think it'd work for that because the minimum amt of resistance would be too great. It'd be too stiff for me to do finger curls.

It doesn't "harden up" but depending on how much you use, you'll have a sticky feeling on your fingers. I've used this product for over a year and have been highly pleased with it.

Thickness might be on site, but can be applied to grip over factory grip without any discomfort as thin enough not to make a difference

it's only about 1/8" thick. If you did a couple layers it could work. My wife used it to cut into 1" strips to weave together to make a cork board and it was barely thick enough, so we wound up backing it with some foam core so the thumb tacks wouldn't go all the way through.

This is a great product. I've never used it on calluses on my fingers. But it should work as well as on my heels. I agree with the other poster that you would still need to exfoliate the area.

I would think so. At least you hand and fingers will be strengthened. You might want to augment it with a resistive rubber band as part of your exercise routine.

I'm not sure if they make them thicker other than when you are wearing the polish. The polish definitely makes them feel sturdier. What I can say is that my nails cracked and chipped at the ends often, and this stuff kept that from happening! It was miraculous.

not thick at all, all of them together won't make two fingers thickness.....

Not sure I can answer your question, Don't know that I would consider it an improvement but I was looking for a glove that was going to protect my palms.

It may help some. I like it better than ones I got from the doctor. They all can limit the movement of your thumb, but for me this one eliminates a good bit of pain.

Yes Sara, it's a big help with strength and dexterity. It would be perfect for starting to develop finger independence and probably help the quality of your massages :)

Whether you stretch your fingers, or this device stretches them, the effect is the same on your hand. The only advantage with this is you don't have to use your other hand to do the work. Also suggest the ex's in the book "Treat Your Own Hand and Thumb Osteoarthritis".
