How it Works:
Following injury to the fingers, wrist, elbow or shoulder it is common for the muscles of the upper limb to waste due to disuse and for fine motor skills to diminish. Therapeutic Hand Putty can help maintain muscle function during the early stages and improve precision grip function and resolve swelling during the later stages of an upper limb injury.
The level of exercise can be graded depending on the resistance of the Therapeutic Hand Putty. Simply start with the easiest and work your way up as your ability improves.
This silicone base putty will not harden.
