What are spinner rings? Spinner rings are a multi-layered ring that allows the outer ring band to spin freely on the inner ring band. Beyond their aesthetic appeal, spinning rings are prized for their therapeutic benefits. The rhythmic motion of spinning the inner band can help promote relaxation, reduce stress, and improve focus and concentration. Spinner rings are not just fun to wear, but they can help with fidgeting and anxiety!
