Studies show that squeezing a ball can raise your heart rate and increase the oxygen levels in your brain. As a result, your heart will pump harder and thus provide better blood circulation. The better your circulation, the lower the risk for stroke, heart attack and high blood pressure. As stress expert Dr. David Posen explained to the Huffington Post, “the benefit of squeezing [a stress ball] is that it releases some kind of energy—it also induces you to relax.” Squeezing a stress ball can also relieve arthritis and strengthen muscles in the wrist and hands. When you need a daily form of diversion in your routine to detox and refresh, using a stress ball can come in very handy. It can help you concentrate, relax and relieve unnecessary tension and cut away the clutter of noises. This is also something workaholics can use in the office.
