Key Features

• Functional Support with Removable Stays: Incorporates both dorsal (top) and removable palmar (palm-side) rigid stays to effectively prevent excessive wrist flexion (bending forward) and extension (bending backward), protecting injured tissues.
• Superior Comfort with Suede-Finish Material: Features a soft, perforated suede-finished material that provides exceptional breathability and comfort against the skin, reducing irritation during extended wear.
• Easy One-Handed Application (Lace-Pulley Closure): The unique tubular slip-on design with a lace-pulley closure system allows users to easily put on, adjust, and secure the brace with just one hand—a critical feature when the other hand is also injured or occupied.
• Hypoallergenic, Latex & Neoprene-Free Design: Constructed without natural rubber latex or neoprene, making it a safe and comfortable choice for individuals with sensitive skin or material allergies.
• Versatile & Customizable Fit: The lace-closure system enables precise adjustment of compression and fit, accommodating changes in swelling and ensuring the brace remains secure throughout the day.
• Optimal Functional Positioning: Holds the wrist in a neutral or slightly extended position that is considered optimal for healing, pain relief, and performing many daily activities.
• Low-Profile Design: The suede fabric and tailored design create a relatively low-profile brace that is discreet under shirt sleeves.
• Left/Right Specific: Designed for a specific wrist (e.g., Left, Small) to ensure the stays and thumb hole are positioned correctly for anatomical effectiveness.

Therapeutic Benefits and Use

• Tendonitis/Tendovaginitis Management: Provides rest and stabilization for inflamed tendons in the wrist (e.g., De Quervain's, general wrist tendonitis), preventing aggravating movements.
• Wrist Sprain and Strain Recovery: Supports healing of ligaments and soft tissues after acute wrist injuries by immobilizing the joint in a safe position.
• Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis Support: Helps stabilize arthritic wrist joints, reduce pain during activity, and provide rest at night, improving quality of life.
• Post-Operative Wrist Care: Used following wrist surgery as directed by a surgeon to protect the repair and maintain proper alignment during early healing phases.
• Care After Cast Removal: Provides protected, graduated mobility as a transition between a rigid cast and no support, helping to prevent re-injury while strength returns.
• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Symptom Relief: Can help alleviate symptoms by maintaining a neutral wrist position, especially during sleep or activities that provoke tingling and numbness.
• Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) Prevention: Serves as a reminder to maintain good wrist posture during repetitive tasks at work or home, such as typing or using tools.
• Daily Activity Enablement: The functional design allows users to perform many tasks—writing, using a computer, light lifting—while the wrist is still supported and protected.

Important Medical Notice

Consult your physician before use if you have: skin infections, red or sensitive skin, untreated skin ulcers, impaired sensitivity of the limb, or sensitivity to the garment material. Do not use if you have a localized skin infection. This brace is a medical device and proper diagnosis and sizing are essential for safety and efficacy. Your healthcare provider can help determine if this product is appropriate for your specific condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the lace-pulley system work for one-handed use?
The brace slides on like a sleeve. You then pull the two lace cords, which tightens the brace evenly around your wrist. The cords are then secured with a toggle or clasp, all of which can be done with the fingers of your same hand. It's much simpler than trying to manage hook-and-loop straps with one hand.

How do I choose the right size for a wrist brace?
Accurate measurement is crucial. You typically need to measure the circumference around your palm (just below the knuckles) and sometimes your wrist. Use the product's specific size chart. A "Small, Left" is for a specific measurement range on the left wrist only.

When should I use the removable palmar stay?
The palmar stay provides maximum restriction against bending your wrist forward. Use it for acute injuries, severe pain, or as directed post-surgery. For milder conditions or when you need more flexibility for tasks, you can remove it while keeping the dorsal stay for basic support.

Is the suede material hot to wear?
No, the suede-finish material is perforated for breathability. It is designed to be more comfortable and less sweaty than traditional solid neoprene braces, making it suitable for all-day and night wear.

Can I type or use a computer mouse while wearing this brace?
Yes, the design aims to immobilize the wrist, not the fingers. You should retain full finger mobility for typing and mousing. Maintaining a neutral wrist position while typing is actually better ergonomics.

How do I clean a suede-finished brace?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid fully submerging it or using harsh chemicals, as this can damage the suede finish and the integrity of the stays and closure system. Allow it to air dry completely.
