CarpalMate® is a lightweight wrist support designed to maintain the wrist in a neutral position

while allowing full finger dexterity. The molded portion of the support extends from the distal

forearm to just past the wrist and sits comfortably between the Thenar and Hypothenar

Eminences (fatty pads of the palm). This design prevents the wrist from dropping and prevents

excess thumb and little finger opposition. Controlling these motions will prevent excess flexion

of the wrist and finger flexor tendons thus avoiding overuse. Overuse can cause tendon

inflammation which causes pressure on the Median Nerve and is the cause of Carpal Tunnel

Syndrome. The support is held in place by a wide elastic strap that provides comfortable

compressive support at the wrist. Colors: Black or Beige.
