CanDo Digi-Extend n' Squeeze available in 3 sizes. Each size available in 5 color-coded resistance levels for flexion. Each unit is packaged standard with latex free extension bands covering 4 color-coded levels from the lightest to heaviest extension requirements.


CanDo hand therapy exercise web is used in hand therapy for flexion, extension, opposition, and supination exercises. Resistance may be modified by adjusting the hand position, depth of finger insertion, or by moving to a different resistance (color) web. The CanDo exercise web is available in both the standard 14 inch diameter size and the small 7 inch diameter size in both low-powder and no-latex formulations. Two special multi-resistance webs are available in only the 14 inch diameter low-powder formulation.


CanDo® Handweb™ is great for tennis elbow. Use to strengthen digit and forearm extensors, for intrinsic hand strengthening exercises, muscle re-education for thumbs, and to restore dynamic thumb stabilization. Exercisers are available in 5 progressive color-coded levels of resistance. From lightest to heaviest: yellow, red, green, blue and black.


The CanDo flexible hand bar exerciser is a lightweight, portable exerciser designed to strengthen muscles in the hand, wrist and shoulder. Also promotes coordination and increases range-of-motion. The bar is a perfect size for twisting and bending it. Perform oscillation movements for neuromuscular and balance training. Use for soft tissue and joint mobilization. The 12 inch long rubber bar utilizes the same graduated progressive color code as other CanDo products (tan - xx-light, yellow - x-light, red - light, green - medium, blue - firm, and black - x-firm). Consistent bar diameter and length throughout resistances means you use the same muscles with each resistance.


The CanDo Twist-Bend-Shake bar is a versatile exercise product available in 2 sizes: 24 and 36 inch long, and 6 resistance levels per size. It can be used to perform three distinct forms of exercise. TWIST: Place both hands on the bar and twist the bar by flexing one wrist and extending the other. BEND: Place both hands on or near the ends of the bar, and keep your hands in position while exerting force to bend the bar that will flex the bar in the middle. SHAKE: Place one or two hands at one end of the bar and shake (push, pull, or rotate) the bar which will cause the bar to flex. The resistance needed to control the bar increases as the amount of flexion increases. You can control the amount of force needed to "work" the bar by slowing down or speeding up the flexion of the bar, or changing to a different resistance bar. For all exercises, resistance can be changed by changing the distance between the hands and/or by changing to a different resistance bar. The 24 and 36 inch long rubber bars utilizes the same graduated progressive color code as other CanDo products (tan - xx-light, yellow - x-light, red - light, green - medium, blue - firm, and black - x-firm). Consistent bar diameter and length throughout resistances means you use the same muscles with each resistance.
