How Does Elastic Compression Help You?
Compression applies gentle pressure to the area around the injury, which helps to improve circulation and prevent excess swelling. Swelling is actually partially caused by a build up of waste products around the site of the injury or condition, so improving circulation helps your body remove these by-products and stop them from causing you pain and discomfort.
Is the Elastic Thumb Support Easy To Apply?
Designed specifically for people with potentially limited mobility, this wrist and thumb brace is easy to put on and take off, even one handed. The hook and loop fastenings are secure once attached, yet easy to remove as required.
