Ultimate Performance Thumb Stabiliser
Thumb conditions and general thumb pain can be disruptive to your life as they limit your dexterity. Some activities make you more prone to thumb issues, such as skiing, as they put repeated strain on your thumbs. The Ultimate Performance Thumb Stabiliser has been designed to protect and prevent thumb pain by stabilising and supporting the digit.
The support holds your thumb in a neutral position without limiting the rest of your hand's movement. This ensures you won't be restricted. The Thumb Stabiliser can either be used to shorten your recovery time for an existing injury, or it can help prevent future injuries from occurring.
