There may be times when we are praying about a physical problem and we are fully expectant of healing, and yet we are in need of temporary assistance with some aspect of caring for our body. A well-designed tool can meet a current physical need and there are many websites where we can find innovative devices created to aid with cleaning, bathing, grooming, and other ordinary tasks. The websites listed here present a variety of useful products. Since they cater to the broad public, most of these websites use medical references. Remember, you can call a Christian Science Nurse to discuss needs and helpful devices.

The way to browse items is to go to the SubCategory section (toward the top on the left) and then click the arrows at the far right to scroll. The selection is large, so many products are medically-oriented, but if you scan quickly, you may find aids that can be helpful.
