This is a great product but I bought this thinking it would provide restrictive support for my wrists. I am able to fully flex my wrists as if it's not even on other than the contorting of the padding.
Dr. Arthritis customer support reached out to me with their tremendous 100% satisfaction service and sent me another of their products that they believed would provide the support I was looking for.
Their kindness was unexpected and really made the difference in making me a loyal customer. Definitely give these products at try if you're looking to improve your joint health.
This brace has been magic for my basal thumb arthritis. My pain had been escruciating. I could not do anything and I was even spending a lot of time, depressed, in bed due to the pain. After wearing this brace for only three days, I notice great relief from the pain. I highly recommend this product.
I have weakness at the base of my hand just before my wrist. The wrap works pretty well but not perfectly as my chronic injury doesn’t receive complete support. However, I will say within its construction, there is a small Velcro patch stitched within the strap to help keep the strap in place when putting it on. And the main Velcro is very durable too. Not sure about the copper; don’t know where it is located or what it does. After wearing the strap for a few hours, it leaves a strong pungent smell both within the strap & on my wrist. I’ve worn the wrap daily for about 1 month & the fibers of the wrap are beginning to fray due to the putting on & off the Velcro. Also the material is beginning to tear between the thumb & index finger area. Had hoped it would have lasted much longer. Am grateful for the product as it has provided some support as I work in a factory setting lifting & sorting many wood products.
Excellent wrist guard...I am recovering from a broken wrist and this really helps give my wrist strength and confidence! I use it for cross country skiing, and it even enables me to do some yoga without as much weakness and discomfort. Highly recommend it (and I bought a less expensive but similar one which was not as comfortable, so I returned that one.) Pay the extra money and get this one.
This is a really good wrist support for use during the day. I've suffered from episodes of bursitis for several years now that will last a few weeks each time.
At first I made the common mistake of assuming "bigger is better" and wearing a heavy rigid brace with steel inserts during the day.
I learned though that doing that isn't a good idea, it gets in the way of everything and it's not good to have your wrist imobilized all day and night
I definitely do recommend getting a night brace, but get something like this for during the day.
You can quickly tell that whoever made this support really thought about it. It's very minimalist, which makes it light and comfortable, I've worn it every day for weeks before and it never gets annoying.
The fabric is very good quality, it's very durable and flexible, and stays relatively clean and dry.
My only real complaint is the size. I'd usually wear XL or 2X gloves, but this is "one size fits all". It certainly does fit, but it would fit better if it were larger. It starts to slip off sometimes and a couple times a day I have to adjust it.
For an average person I doubt that would be an issue though. In my ideal world they should make an S-M and an M-XL version

I would of given this a 5 star review; however, there is one circle of velcro-sih stuff on the inside that is irritating my skin a little. This circle is there to help fasten everything on the right side of your wrist, under your pinky... but my wrist is not small enough for it to help and it rubs against my skin instead of the fabric. My wrist measures 6 1/2 inches around, it's not a big wrist at all. I can tighten everything and make the circle touch the fabric and not my skin, but it ends up being too tight and bothers me after a while. This obviously helps fasten and secure everything for people with tiny wrists, so if you are reading this and have a wrist smaller than mine than this thing is great for you. Other than this little irritating circle, I like this product. It does the job, it is comfortable (besides the little circle thing), it's very well made and not cheap, and it's even washable. If it wasn't for the little circle I would not even know I had it on. I can live with the irritating circle, it's not like it's causing a skin rash or anything major enough for me to return it, I can deal with it. This thing is helping my wrist out tremendously (carpel tunnel) and the benefits far outweigh the minor irritation.
The problem I had with other designs was they made it kind of annoying to use the mouse. This design leaves most of my palm free while still providing support. I've been wearing it for two days and I've already had a lot of relief. I use this due to my carpal tunnel pain that I am trying to prevent from getting worse and it is definitely helping!
UPDATE 1/22/2019: Still using this product every day for hours at a time. I've washed it several times on handwash and hang to dry, and it is holding up beautifully and helping my pain a lot!
This is the best wrist support of all the ones I have tried!! I have had tendinitis for about four months and this support has been a huge help. Also, the exercise booklet has been very helpful as well. I have been doing the exercises for the past few weeks and thankfully they have helped! Thank you for putting so much thought in your wrist support, and the exercise booklet was a great bonus!
I'm a professional writer and editor, which sometimes involves layout and graphics manipulation. So I occasionally (fortunately not more often) experience repetitive stress in my wrists. It's been bad enough that my wrists would spasm at night; the pain was so great that I couldn't sleep at all. Desperate, I ordered this wrist support as well as the other one they sell. (Also see the last paragraph of this review for a complementary pharmaceutical approach, either in combination with or separate from the wrist brace, that worked for me.)
Once I started wearing this brace, the pain started to dissipate and I could manage the pain. The product is constructed pretty well, with a thick stretchable synthetic fabric. It wraps around one's wrist and then is secured via a velcro strap. I found it easy to adjust the pressure and fit of the brace. If you get this kind of pain, you know that to manage it, you often need to be able to apply varying pressure depending on the pain. This brace lets you do that. I've worn it all over the place, gotten it dirty, and put it in the washer and dryer with little degradation of the fabric or its tension. This brace is especially good if you have arthritis or aren't strong enough to pull on a typical sleeve brace.
I'm sure some other consumers wondered, as I did, what the difference is between this product and the other one sold by this merchant (Doctor Developed Copper Infused Wrist Sleeve/Wrist Support/Wrist Brace/Wrist Compression Sleeve [Single] & Doctor Written Handbook), which is a sleeve rather than using a strap (I'll just refer to it as a "brace"): (1) the sleeve has greater coverage than the brace does—it covers more of the wrist and more of the hand itself; because both areas are outside the area of pain being treated, it really has no effect, and I haven't noted any (2) the sleeve material is significantly thinner than the brace material—this could matter if you need more freedom of movement or engage in an activity that could be hampered by a thick brace (typing, sewing, watchmaking, etc.); (3) as noted earlier, the brace's fit and pressure can be adjusted via the strap; this is not possible with the sleeve—I found the sizing chart to be quite accurate, however, and my sleeve works quite well when I want something less restrictive (e.g., when sleeping); and (4) the brace is more durable than the sleeve. I bought both products, and I use each depending on the circumstances.
The copper lining is noted in both the listing title and product copy. Curious, as I had never heard that copper has any therapeutic affect on wrist afflictions. After a little research, voila!, I had the answer—it does nothing, or if it does, it cannot or has not been scientifically proven. It's slightly annoying that the doctors who make this product would bother adding copper to it or using copper's presence for marketing. But in the end, it has no impact on the product's performance, as far as I can tell, so no big deal.
Now a recommendation that I have absolutely no qualifications to dispense: (1) get yourself some aspirin, not ibuprofen or similar; (2) note the recommended dosage and frequency in the product directions (for 400–500 mg aspirin this is typically 2 tablets every 6 hours); (3) follow the recommended dosing for 2 days; (4) stop taking the aspirin if you need to for any reason listed in the product warnings or by using common sense; and (5) the pain should be much more manageable at that point. This works because aspirin is an anti-inflammatory—its continuous use for a period reduces inflammation in the tendons and ligaments that move together to perpetuate the problem. It worked for me, but your mileage will undoubtedly vary. For someone with a chronic problem, this may have no effect at all.
I have experienced repetitive injury on my right wrist few months ago. I need a wrist brace whenever I have to work, so I saw the 4.5+ reviews on Amazon about this product. After a few weeks wearing this everyday, it feels that my right wrist was almost back to normal. I am still practicing to use my left hands and arms to strengthen it by using some exercises and some physical therapy.
This product helped me a lot at work. Although I can sense little pain, and has ease the discomfort of pain in the past. This is a great product for those who have carpal tunnel syndrome or have experienced repetitive wrist injury.
The straps are adjustable to your wrist and hands size which is so convenient. It is also easy to wear it too because of the magnetic circle to close the wrist strap tightly. Pretty cool I would say!
This package has both right and left wrist straps in a box, and some helpful guide on using the product. I highly recommend this product compared to others.
