Ideal For

Occupational therapists and physical therapists working with patients in early-stage hand and wrist rehabilitation following surgery, fracture, or soft tissue injury will find the soft resistance appropriate for patients who are beginning to rebuild grip and pinch strength after the acute phase of recovery. Patients recovering from carpal tunnel release, trigger finger repair, or hand fractures who need a gentle, low-resistance medium for home exercise programs will find the compact 2 oz size a convenient, portable option for daily use. Individuals managing arthritis, tendinitis, or other chronic hand conditions who need a low-load daily exercise tool to maintain joint mobility and reduce stiffness will benefit from the non-greasy, skin-safe formula that makes extended use comfortable. The 2 oz size is also well suited for pediatric therapy patients or users with smaller hands who find larger containers unwieldy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which resistance level should I start with?
Start with the lightest resistance that provides a mild challenge without causing pain or fatigue after a few repetitions. Red (Soft) is appropriate for early-stage rehabilitation when some baseline grip strength has returned. Always follow your occupational or physical therapist’s recommendation for your specific condition and stage of recovery.

Can I combine different resistance levels?
Yes. Multiple putty colors can be blended together to create a custom resistance level between two standard levels. Knead the two colors together thoroughly until the putty is uniform in color and consistency before use.

How do I store therapy putty?
Store the putty in its original container or a sealed airtight container when not in use to prevent it from drying out. Keep it at room temperature — avoid exposure to heat or direct sunlight, which can soften the putty and alter its resistance. Cold temperatures will temporarily firm the putty; allow it to warm to room temperature before use for consistent resistance.

What is the difference between the 2 oz and larger sizes?
The 2 oz size is the most compact option, ideal for travel, individual patient kits, or users who prefer a smaller amount of putty for targeted exercises. Larger sizes (4 oz, 6 oz, 1 lb) provide more putty for extended sessions or a wider variety of exercises in a single session. All sizes offer the same resistance level and formula.
