Therapy Putty

Theraputty is a resistive substance ideally suited for hand exercise. It is color coded to various gradually increasing resistance levels. There are 6 resistance levels ranging from XX-Soft to X-Firm. This allows you to  gradually increase resistance as you recover hand strength.

Theraputty is gluten, casein and latex free. It is available in containers of various sizes – 2 oz, 3 oz, 4 oz, 5 oz and 6 oz for home use and 1 Lb and 5 Lbs for professional use.

Exercise putty is widely used to strengthen hands and fingers  during rehabilitation from illness, injury, surgery or a stroke. It is suitable for use by anyone who has suffered a disorder that affects muscle tone and grip strength. Specifically, Theraputty is useful for treating carpal tunnel syndrome and trigger finger disorders, among others.

However, its usefulness is not limited to soft tissue injuries. If you have undergone a hand fracture and have worn a hand cast for an extended period, you will also find therapy putty exercises useful in regaining your normal hand strength.
