The putty can be squeezed, stretched, twisted, or pinched to target a wide range of hand and forearm muscle groups, and it is equally effective for foot and toe exercises. Non-toxic, clean, non-oily, and non-greasy, it leaves no residue and does not stick to the skin. Latex-free construction makes it safe for use in clinical and home settings. This listing is for the 6 oz XX-Soft (Light Beige) resistance level (SKU BJ175175) — the lightest resistance in the Squeeze-4-Strength line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eResistance Level Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight Beige — XX-Soft (this listing, lightest resistance)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYellow — X-Soft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed — Soft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDark Beige — Medium-Soft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreen — Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue — Firm (highest resistance)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be squeezed, stretched, twisted, or pinched for versatile hand and finger exercise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffective for hand, finger, wrist, and forearm strengthening and rehabilitation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso suitable for foot and toe exercises\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-toxic, clean, non-oily, and non-greasy — leaves no residue and does not stick to skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLatex-free construction safe for clinical and home use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightest resistance level — ideal for acute post-surgical recovery and severe weakness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor-coded resistance levels for easy progression tracking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple putty colors can be combined to create a custom resistance program\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Blue Jay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: BJ175175\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUPC: 753940959753\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 6 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResistance Level: XX-Soft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Light Beige\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLatex-Free: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin: China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePatients in the acute phase of post-surgical hand and wrist rehabilitation — including carpal tunnel release, trigger finger repair, tendon repair, or fracture fixation — who have minimal grip strength and need the gentlest possible resistance to begin active exercise will find the XX-Soft level the appropriate starting point. Occupational therapists and physical therapists working with patients who have severe hand weakness due to neurological conditions, stroke, or prolonged immobilization will find the lightest resistance suitable for initiating active hand exercise without overloading fragile or healing tissue. The 6 oz size provides enough putty for a full session of varied exercises, making it a practical option for clinics that want to provide patients with a generous supply of the lightest resistance for extended home use. Elderly patients or individuals with significant arthritis-related weakness who need a very low-load tool for daily hand mobility and circulation exercises will benefit from the minimal resistance that still provides tactile feedback and gentle muscle activation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy would I choose XX-Soft over X-Soft?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eXX-Soft (Light Beige) is the lightest resistance in the line and is intended for patients with very minimal grip strength — typically in the acute post-surgical phase, with severe neurological weakness, or with significant age- or disease-related hand weakness. If you can squeeze the X-Soft (Yellow) putty without pain or excessive fatigue, you likely do not need the XX-Soft level. When in doubt, follow your occupational or physical therapist’s recommendation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I combine different resistance levels?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I store therapy putty?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStore 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between the 6 oz and larger sizes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 6 oz size is a mid-range option suitable for home exercise programs and individual patient use. The 1 lb size provides more putty for extended exercise sessions or for facilities that prefer a larger quantity per container. Both sizes offer the same resistance level and formula — the choice is primarily based on intended use and user preference.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Jay","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40388772200502,"sku":"BJ175175","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1443\/4772\/products\/blue-jay-hand-wrist-exercise-products-default-title-blue-jay-squeeze-4-strength-hand-therapy-putty-6-oz-xx-soft-light-beige-23632229400630.jpg?v=1788639600","url":"https:\/\/www.precisionlabworks.com\/products\/blue-jay-squeeze-4-strength-hand-therapy-putty-6-oz-xx-soft-light-beige","provider":"Precision Lab Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
