Features & Benefits
The Manutec Thumb Abduction Spica is a semi-rigid orthosis designed to immobilise and protect the thumb while maintaining hand function. Engineered with a short bilateral design, this versatile brace fits either hand and is ideal for managing a variety of thumb pathologies.
Constructed from padded foam, the brace provides a soft yet supportive feel against the skin, making it suitable for prolonged daily use. At the core of its stabilising structure lies a malleable aluminium stay, positioned to secure the trapezium-metacarpal joint (CMC joint), effectively reducing pain and inflammation associated with overuse or injury.
The simple touch-and-close fastening system ensures quick application and removal, allowing wearers to independently manage their support. Whether used in conservative treatment or post-surgical rehabilitation, the Manutec Thumb Spica offers an optimal combination of comfort, control, and convenience.
