Product Description

The Carpometacarpal Thumb Brace is a specially engineered orthopaedic device tailored to support the first CMC (carpometacarpal) joint, offering pain relief, joint stabilisation, and improved thumb mobility. Whether you're managing early signs of osteoarthritis or experiencing thumb joint instability, this brace is crafted to provide therapeutic support without compromising hand function.

Its anatomical design stabilises the trapeziometacarpal joint while allowing full movement of the fingers, ensuring you can perform daily activities such as gripping, writing, or using devices without interference. This balance between structure and flexibility helps maintain strength in the CMC joint and prevents further degeneration.

The brace incorporates a double injection of materials with rounded, soft edges to ensure prolonged wear without irritation or discomfort. A built-in metal core allows you to personalise the level of support, adjusting stability around the thumb based on your individual comfort and clinical needs. This product also comes with a replacement strap for added convenience.

Please note that colours may vary based on availability.
