Are they good for arthritis as well? The reason I ask is that my mum has arthritis in her wrist, & I was wondering if a Powerball might be usefull to her. The reason I'm a bit hesitant about getting her to try mine is I wouldn't want to do anything that might lead to her getting hurt - she's... well, as she would put it, "not as young as young as she used to be", & has had to have surgery for stuff that would have just given you or I a few bruises. If it would be beneficial to her then great, but if it could make her wrist worse I wouldn't want to risk it.
Rammy is, obviously, the man, for this question, but just to comment, in my opinion, a powerball won't put cartilage back, where it doesn't exist, but it may maintain that which is there
