The cushion pad (26) includes a recess (28) within a predetermined size range for protecting the median nerve (24) by eliminating gripping pressure thereon. The cushion pad (26) may be configured as a cylindrical grip attached to the tool (14) or as a hand glove (40) to be placed on the hand (12) prior to grasping the tool (14). The cushion pad (26) may include positioning flanges (32, 34, 38) for positioning the median nerve (24) over the recess (28).
