How Does Neoprene Fabric Soothe Arthritic Conditions?

Warmth causes the blood vessels of your muscles to dilate, which increases the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles. Warmth also increases the pliability of the muscles and connective tissue, which increases joint flexibility and decreases joint stiffness.

Can I Adjust the Design to Fit Me Personally?

We suggest that you heat the malleable aluminium bar and mould it to the angle that will be support your wrist and thumb. This can be done multiple times to provide varying degrees of stabilisation as the injury heals or the condition progresses. 

How Effective Is This Brace for Treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

Many people with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome wear a splint at night for a few weeks. The splint holds the joint in a neutral position which can improve the symptoms, reducing pain and improving mobility. It can take several weeks before the beneficial effects become apparent, so the biggest issue with splints for carpal tunnel is actually patient compliance.
