Health benefits

Our staff at Totally Promotional has 30 years of experience helping customers with promotional ideas. But we’re not doctors or health experts. We do not encourage anyone to use stress balls for health reasons without consulting a doctor or mental health professional.

But I was curious what the experts had to say about the health benefits of stress balls, so I did some homework. According to online health experts, LIVESTRONG, using them can improve physical and mental health. The act of squeezing a stress ball can release tension, which subsequently relieves stress. This can lead to better sleep, less illness and an overall better quality of life.

Squeezing a stress ball can also help circulate the blood; it’s common for blood donors to use stress balls during the procedure. I also learned that squeezing a stress ball repeatedly for periods of time can strengthen muscles in the hand and wrist.

What’s your favorite shape?

Round stress balls are the most popular type of customized stress balls today. I personally prefer penguins and ocean liners. (I love animals and cruises!) The biggest selling point for personalized stress balls may be the many shapes and sizes available. It’s easy to find something irresistible to promote your products, services or message. For example, our Red Heart Stress Ball is perfect for hospitals, pediatric offices, blood drives and heart awareness events. Our Baseball Stress Ball is a great prize for your Championship Little League team!
