Doctor Developed Premium Wrist Supports - Neoprene & Nylon Carpal Tunnel Wrist Splint - Hand & Wrist Braces W/Doctor Handbook - Wrist Straps For Women & Men Injuries, Joint Disease, Sprains (single)

I purchased my original support some months ago, after my original NHS one gave up the ghost. I was prescribed the NHS brace as I have osteoarthriitis and deterioration of the trapezium in the wrist which is rubbing against the metacarpal of my thumb. I get a lot of pain when not wearing the brace and wear it most of the time, except most nights. The NHS support whilst doing the job was ugly and cumbersome. The Dr Arthritis brace was far superior. It's much less bulky, lighter and comfortable and looks so much better. I have a lot more mobility of my wrist and hand whilst still isolating the offending area. I do a lot of yoga, and prior to getting the Dr Arthritis brace I had to balance on knuckles when doing moves like Downward Dog. Now I can do this palm down without pain. A few weeks ago I contacted Dr Arthritis Customer Services as the velcro holding the brace at the top of the thumb had lost its 'adhesion'. I wrote to ask if I could purchase a new brace without the information booklet at a reduced cost. I received a lovely reply within a few hours saying that the velcro should not have stopped working so soon, as the brace was made to last. They replaced my original brace which I received in just a few days later. Since I received the new one it has been well tested. I've just come back from an 8 day yoga retreat and it enabled me to have a great time. It is wonderful to deal with such an efficient and caring company. I can recommend them highly.

Killed my wrist writing too much (handwriting - apparently I hate myself). This support really helped me recover and I still use it a lot when I get odd pains when drawing or writing too much (what, you expected me to learn my lesson?) It helps a lot to carry on working (I need to finish the scene or I can't sleep okay) and for pain relief and support when someone drags me away from my desk kicking and screaming. If you wear it for a really long time (as in 5+ hours) the thumbhole can start to dig in a wee bit, but it's by no means intolerable - it's mostly just itchy. Absolutely recommend.

The thumb splint supports, left and right, have been fine so far in the few days I have used them (I use both left and right hand splints). There is quite a bit of restriction for everyday modern tasks but by their nature the splints are designed to do a job so it is necessary to trade that off. I have nothing to compare against as this is a first time use (scaphoid and ligament injuries due to an accident) but quality seems very good and easy to fasten without straining the injuries doing so. The only negatives I would report at this stage are: - One size/option for either hand works OK but one side looks slightly odd compared to the other. I.e. it is essentially a right hand glove/fit that can be adapted (easily) to the left hand in reverse but it would be better if it was more neutral each way. Specifically the Velcro fasteners can only be rotated clockwise (ideally the left hand use would be anticlockwise by means of a reversible velcro). - If fixed too tight the circulation can be compromised leading to aches and numbness. The difficulty is it needs to be done up fairly tight to provide the correct support to the thumb. Too tight and it can restrict so it is a balancing act to find the right medium. Overall, I believe I made a good choice for this product which seemed to be a high quality product/design at a competitive price with good reviews to base the decision on. I would recommend this product fully with the caveat I have no other supplier to compare it against and have only had a few days of road testing to date. Happy so far.

Support is designed & made well, really impressed with the relief it has given me today- I suffer from tendonitis in my wrist & since I put it on it hasn't hurt at all & I've been able to go about my daily routine pain free! This is day 1 but a hugely noticeable improvement which compelled me to write this review. Great product 👍

It's very good for carpal tunnel syndrome in pregnancy. It fits well, not too expensive but it's so sweaty and not breathable at all. It's such a shame because it actually massively helps the pain but I have to keep taking it off because it's itchy, sweaty and uncomfortable. Very mixed feelings because of the breathability and how effective it is for releaving pain.

Pros 1 Double velcro points to keep secure and make them easier to put on in stages 2 Great shape to make wrapping around bespoke and perfectly fitted 3 copper element will help in the long term to avoid adverse skin reactions 4 svelte, "hardly there", very supportive but not bulky at all 5 far better than the £18 ones from Boots, they hardly list a few months and that's only for one, 2 for £36 is a rip-off Cons Still looking ! (There was a problem customer services dealt with *very* quickly, thank you) Hopefully over time, the velcro will still be sticky unlike the ones from Boots, I'll edit the review on 6 months Thanks, Dave

I’ve been very pleased with this product. It arrived on time, well-packaged, and in excellent condition. The quality is solid, and it performs just as described. It’s clear that attention has been given to both design and usability. What I appreciate most is the balance between quality and value — it feels reliable and worth the price. I’ve had no issues so far, and it has met (and even exceeded) my expectations. I’d happily recommend this product to others who are looking for something dependable and effective.
