Description
This 3D-printed assistive holder is designed to help individuals with limited grip strength, dexterity challenges, or one-handed use easily apply deodorant or other cylindrical hygiene products.
The ergonomic curved handle provides a secure and comfortable grip, while the adjustable hook-and-loop strap firmly holds the deodorant in place during use.
It’s ideal for people with arthritis, muscle weakness, tremors, or post-injury rehabilitation who need extra support for daily personal care routines.
