Award Winning New Saucepan Design.

Have you ever thought about how you hold a hot and heavy saucepan? Have you ever felt the strain on your wrists and forearms when you do? This is because traditionally saucepan handles have always been straight - this forces you to bend your wrist awkwardly in order to grip the handle. In doing so you can reduce your grip strength by up to 45%.

Celia Gates was watching her grandmother struggling to lift a heavy pan when the simple thought occurred to her - apply basic ergonomics and bend the handle instead and the user gets to hold a hot and heavy pan in a strong, neutral wrist position whereby the muscles and tendons in the arm are able to benefit from maximum performance. "It's amazing the difference it makes" says Celia, "good quality cookware actually feels lighter".

Check out the difference this makes by looking at the X-rays images and in particular the area around the wrist joint. You can see for yourselves. With the Dr Cook design everyone benefits from a naturally stonger straight wrist grip! Good design makes sense!

Repetitive Strain Injuries are more common than you may think. Often they are those wee niggles which we tend to tolerate as part of the aging process. Sometimes they flare up and we think more seriously about having an injury. Other times, as we break the routine or adjust our posture to compensate and relieve the pain the aches dull down and we forget or learn to live with the pain. Here at Dr Cook, we refer specifically to the Pain and Strain of Cooking something we believe has been tolerated for too long. Read more...
