Who Can Use the Oppo Neoprene Support?

If you suffer from De Quervain's syndrome or are recovering from a thumb sprain or tendinitis, it is crucial to keep the CMC joint stabilised to restrict unwanted movement during daily activity. The Wrist and Thumb Support employs metal reinforcement for structural stability, ensuring proper alignment as the joint heals. 

Why Should You Wear a Wrist and Thumb Support?

Designed to provide structural stability to your wrist and CMC joint, firm supports help ensure your injury heals properly. If you don't stabilise the area when you're suffering from a wrist condition, this can lead to the injury worsening which will cause more pain in the long run. 

Sizing of the Wrist and Thumb Brace

The Wrist and Thumb Support is available in a choice of four different sizes. To find which brace will help you the most, measure the circumference of your wrist. Please consult the table below to find your perfect size.

Metal Reinforced Thumb Crotch

To correctly align your hand and thumb during the body's natural healing process, this firm support features a metal reinforcement to hold your thumb in place, ensuring the joint and tendons do not struggle to regain flexibility in the later stages of recovery due to improper healing.

Open Palm Design for Increased Movement

Displaying an open palm design, with the support concentrating primarily on stabilising the wrist and CMC joint, there is increased flexibility in the hand and fingers allowing for a greater degree of movement than other supports. The absence of thermal neoprene material covering the palm also works to increase breathability and reduce palm perspiration for more comfortable all-day wear.

Provides Compression and Firm Support

The neoprene-based Thumb Support places firm support and compression on your injured wrist and thumb to relieve pain and weakness in the area. This pressure helps ensure your wrist can strengthen over time by increasing blood circulation and helping it recover faster after injury or exercise. 

Thermal Neoprene to Retain Body Heat

Blending compression and heat retention, the Oppo Thumb Support utilises a neoprene rubber layer sandwiched between durable cotton and nylon laminates to act as a thermal insulator. This helps retain body heat and increase blood circulation which accelerates the body's natural healing process, relieving pain, swelling and stiffness. 

Strengthen the Joint and Prevent Injury

Using the Oppo Wrist and Thumb Stabiliser, you ensure the joints heal correctly and this allows for greater flexibility in the muscles, tendons and ligaments once properly healed. This reduces the risk of new or recurring injury, allowing you to get back to your everyday routine without worrying about over-exertion.

How Do You Apply the Brace?

1. Position thumb on the thumb-locking area of the support.
2. Be sure the metal splint is on the lateral side of the thumb.
3. Secure the hook-and-loop strap beside your thumb area to find your desired level of compression.
4. Secure the elastic hook-and-loop fastener to your desired compression level.
