Rheumatoid Arthritis Awareness Day: Adaptive Utensils

Rheumatoid Arthritis: Cooking Made Easier

Eating well is important when you have rheumatoid arthritis, but joint pain can make cooking taxing. Make kitchen tasks easier with these pain-saving tips.


Adaptive utensils and equipment to make life easier for people living with Arthritis are designed to help prevent hand pain and allow users to be more independent during mealtime. Silverware with large, soft-grip handles and ergonomic designs allow users to feed themselves. Adapted forks, spoons, and table knives that can be bent or angled allow users suffering from arthritis to experience increased independence when eating. Users with arthritis, carpal tunnel, or hand injuries often have difficulty maintaining a grip on items due to decreased arm strength. Arthritis Utensil holders include a variety of grips and unique tools that make holding silverware easier.
