Designed around the urge to scratch.
Telling yourself not to scratch rarely works. Gentle Scratcher meets the urge with texture and cold, so your nails can stay out of it.

Three parts, one job.
Rounded metal bumps
A smooth zinc plate with rounded bumps gives the scratching sensation your hand is looking for, spread over a wider, gentler surface than a fingernail.
Built-in cooling pod
After at least 4 hours in the freezer, the pod can reach temperatures as low as 0°C and brings cool contact to the itchy area.
Crescent grip body
The lightweight ABS body curves into your palm, so you stay in control of the pressure.
Break the itch–scratch cycle.
Nails can break the skin barrier. That lets irritants in, the skin becomes inflamed, and the itch can return stronger than before. Gentle Scratcher gives the urge a gentler place to go.
Use light pressure
There's no need to press hard. Keep it moving and let the bumps and the cold do the work.
Keep your routine
Use it alongside, never instead of, the moisturisers and treatment your doctor recommends.
The itch–scratch cycle
Cold, kept on hand.
Cold is one of the oldest ways people calm an itch. The cooling pod keeps that cold ready in your freezer, in a shape you can hold and move.

Care & cleaning

The Gatal Hack: moisturise, then scratch.
Gentle Scratcher works best as part of the skincare routine you already have.
Moisturise
Apply the moisturiser your doctor or pharmacist recommends. It helps the plate glide smoothly.
Scratch gently
Take Gentle Scratcher from the freezer and glide it over the itchy area with light pressure.
