The Epitact Thumb Brace is really easy to apply, simply slide your hand through the opening like you would a glove.
How Does The Thumb Night Brace Slow the Progression of Symptoms?
The Rigid Thumb Night Brace allows your joint to completely relax in a neutral position while you sleep or relax. When you get a good night's sleep, your central nervous system helps your body regulate the pain, allowing for symptoms to slow.
