When extra protection is needed
Intense pain in the wrist joint and thumb can transform every gripping movement into a real torment, making everyday life intolerable. The affected joints need absolute rest by limiting rotational movement. But not forever: as soon as your doctor allows it, it is advisable to gradually start training your muscles again.
ManuLoc Rhizo long it is a combination of our hand orthosis ManuLoc long and that for the thumb RhizoLoc. Thanks to its long lever, it completely immobilizes the wrist joint. Its anatomical aluminum splints can be further adapted by an orthopedic technician.
Get back in shape faster
The Velcro tab at the thumb allows the basal joint to be gradually mobilised, to restore mobility as quickly as possible, after which the thumb support can be completely removed. In this modo it will again be possible to carry out gripping movements with all fingers; all this while ensuring wrist stabilization.
The breathable material with integrated holes allows optimal transpiration of the skin, thus avoiding sweating and itching of the thumb and wrist joint. The velcro closure system allows you to put on and take off the orthosis very easily using the other hand.
