Product Information
Full details
Cando TheraPutty is an essential tool for individuals recovering from hand or finger injuries, as well as those looking to improve manual dexterity and joint mobility through physical or occupational therapy. This high-quality modeling clay provides a reliable, non-greasy resistance experience that effectively builds grip strength. While it is perfect for independent, portable therapy, users should note that the 'Strong' (Blue) resistance level is intended for advanced strengthening and may be too firm for individuals in the early stages of post-operative recovery.

FAQs
Is this putty safe for children?
Yes, it is non-toxic, but it should always be used under adult supervision to ensure it is not ingested.
How often should I replace my TheraPutty?
Replacement frequency depends on usage intensity and hygiene maintenance, typically every few months if used daily.
Can I use this for stress relief?
Yes, while designed for therapy, its tactile nature makes it an excellent tool for stress reduction.
Does the color represent the resistance level?
Yes, Cando uses a color-coded system where different colors correspond to varying degrees of resistance.
Can I leave the putty on a wooden table?
It is best to use it on a clean, non-porous surface like a plastic tray or glass tabletop to avoid any surface interaction.
Is this the same as children's playdough?
No, TheraPutty is a professional medical-grade material designed specifically to provide consistent resistance for rehabilitation.
Troubleshooting
Putty feels too stiff to manipulate
Warm the container slightly by holding it in your hands for a few minutes before use, or try a lighter resistance level.
Putty has picked up lint or dust
Once the putty has embedded debris, it is difficult to remove; we recommend discarding the contaminated portion to maintain hygiene.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No specialized setup is required; simply remove the lid and the putty is ready for use immediately. For optimal results, ensure your hands are clean and dry before handling, as oils or lotions can alter the putty's consistency over time. To maintain the life of the product, always return the putty to its original container immediately after completing your exercises. Keep the container tightly sealed to prevent the material from drying out or collecting dust. If the putty becomes dusty, it is recommended to replace it rather than attempt to wash it, as standard cleaning methods may compromise the antimicrobial structure.
