Actimove KIDS Wrist Support for Children
Kids will often find a way to get injured, and when they do, it's important to provide them with enough support to protect the area and allow it to heal. The Actimove KIDS Wrist Support for Children is designed to stabilise a child's wrist to prevent painful movements, and supplies therapeutic warmth and compression to keep pain and swelling under control as they recover.
What's Included?
Please note: This wrist support is ambidextrous, and is equally comfortable when worn on the left or right wrist.
Who Should Use the Actimove Children's Wrist Brace?
This is an ideal wrist support for children who have suffered a recent injury, or are looking to get back to activity after their recovery. In particular, it's suited to:
- Arthritis
- Tendonitis
- Sprains and strains
- Soft tissue injuries
- Post-operative care
- Support after cast removal
Will This Wrist Brace Fit My Child?
As kids are always growing, this support is adjustable to allow it to adapt to the wrist sizes of most children between the approximate ages of two to seven. To determine if it will fit your child, measure the circumference around their wrist as shown in the graphic below. This support is suitable for children with wrist circumferences between 11.5cm and 14cm.
How Does This Brace Support the Wrist?
This brace is anatomically shaped for comfort, and includes a removable metal stay that can be placed for application to either the left or right wrist. The metal stay will prevent bending motions that can be painful or dangerous to injured and recovering wrists, which will help to keep the wrist in the proper position to allow healing to take place.
How Comfortable is the Actimove Wrist Brace for Kids?
This brace is designed to be especially comfortable to boost compliance. It is made with an anatomical shape that suits the contours of a child's wrist, and soft inner materials to make it suitable for all-day wear. The inner material is also seamless, preventing any sort of chafing or irritation.
How Do I Apply the Actimove Paediatric Wrist Support?
This brace can be easily applied and adjusted to fit using the Velcro fasteners and straps. Please see the diagram below for detailed step-by-step instructions regarding proper application.
Does the Actimove Children's Wrist Brace Contain Latex or Neoprene?
