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.

You can adjust the resistance of the springs to make it harder or easier. When there is less resistance, it's relatively noiseless. When there's more resistance, it's more audible. It's not particularly loud, but if you're in close proximity to your office mates, there's a decent chance they'll be able to hear it. Just the same, I'd recommend this product, as it's not just a finger strengthener but can also function as a forearm workout.

Maybe, but I would say the tip is thicker than it looks. So, as far as detail goes, it's probably not the most accurate. I use my finger more than this thing.

There are no fingerprints if you don't have any kind of residue on your hands like lotion or something like that. No, it doesn't change the responsiveness. Completely worth it, if you ask me.

Sorry i didn't respond earlier, but when the product thickens - usually when you get closer to the bottom of the bottle - i just add a little bit of nail polish thinner to it; and yes, it really really does work... i have never tried any of the others that you have listed. Before using it, my nails were very thin and split alot; do be sure to use it as it says, daily application and then take off after a week and re-apply...I would highly recommend this product.

I don't know how it would help with trigger finger as i don't have that problem. Sorry I can't help with that. I ended up having A Cortisone injection from my Rheumatologist.Trigger finger is usually best assessed by a specialist Orthopaedic surgeon I guess. The splint hurt my finger a bit as my fingers were not strong enough to adjust the little prongs.Maybe it just was not the right gadget for me. Sorry I couldn't help. :(

Hi Isabel, I noticed my pinkie to not be as strong at first. Then I stopped trying to do individual fingers and just work on making a full grip, as in a handshake. After a couple weeks, all my fingers were stronger, then I went back to working on the individual fingers. All my fingers had made some improvement, but the pinkie is not as strong as the others. I have the Grip-Master "Heavy Tension" model, and I have reached the conclusion that the pinkie is not suppose to be as strong as the big meaty fingers on the hand. I have accepted the fact that the pinkie is the little finger and it won't be as strong as the others. However, I have used it to compress the Grip-Master "Heavy Tension" model and I can do it, but it is a good bit of effort to compress it down all the way. I can do it, but I ask myself, Why? I have no plans of crushing walnuts with my pinkie, so I really don't see a need to do a workout routine to beef up my pinkie. It does get stronger from doing a handshake grip of all fingers. I step through all fingers and the little pinkie is able to compress the button down. Over time, you will probably see strength develop in your pinkie, but I don't see a need to be able to crush walnuts with it.

Yes, I don't notice a difference with it on. Helps out significantly with fingerprints.

Mine works best on clean, dry, warm fingers. Be shure to push the finger all the way In.

Yes it does. This is so great for not having grip your Ipad, book or magazine. I was developing achy finger joints as well as in my wrists. Feeling much better now. I think the hard part for you is deciding which color to get. Good luck.

This product has the stickiness similar to that of Pine Tar, without all the mess. So I would have to say yes this would enhance your grip.

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".

Not really. It will of course stiffen your muscles a bit when starting out but it doesn't affect hand and finger movement at all.

Hmmm. I guess I'm not sure. Maybe if you use a mixer or something. This stuff is super thick. I actually loved the smell but the texture is so thick. I wonder if it would work better if I warmed it up somehow. It's so hard I couldn't get any to use on my hands. At any rate, I definitely recommend thinning this out, I just don't know how one would do that.

In my opinion, this product is great for the hands, feet and lips. I would only coat my legs a little with this product. It is very thick.

Not at all, it works great. You can do 4 fingers at a time and then both thumbs, still very quick and effective.
