Why Stress Balls are So Popular

If you’re a business person, you’ve probably got a few random stress balls laying around somewhere.  So why does it seem that almost every company gives them away?  There’s a reason it’s considered one of the best corporate gifts around.  It actually works.

There have been scientific studies that prove that when you squeeze a stress ball, it actually does release stress because any anxiety or stress is redirected to the ball.  Squeezing it becomes a repetitive movement and you’re able to subconsciously do the movement, which means it’s an easy way for stress relief.

So next time you receive a stress ball as a custom corporate gift, maybe you should think twice about whether or not to throw it away.  It could come in handy in a time where you least expect it to!
