Fitomo Wrist Support Strap for Carpal Tunnel ⌚
Description:
This wrist support strap offers gentle compression and a soft thumb opening to ease discomfort during rest and activity. It works as a wrist brace for carpal tunnel and related conditions by stabilising the joint and reducing movement that can aggravate mild tendonitis, arthritis and sprains. Comfortable materials help you wear it through the night or during daytime tasks such as typing.
Key Points
The strap features a soft, elastic thumb opening made from yoga-style fabric that reduces friction and helps ventilation, so the skin can breathe even when worn for extended periods. It includes a one-handed wearing aid that simplifies putting the support on, which can be useful if your other hand needs to rest or has limited strength. The design aims for a balance between support and mobility, allowing light sports and everyday actions like driving or lifting a baby while offering compression. 🧘♀️
Fit and durability are practical considerations. The material mix is chosen for repeated use and washing, so the brace keeps shape and compression over time. The length and tightness are adjustable to match different wrist sizes and activity levels. Consider that for more severe nerve compression or intense instability you may need a specialist’s assessment, according to the manufacturer. ⚠️

Usage Recommendations
Wear the brace snugly but not too tight to avoid circulatory restriction. For nighttime use, position the hand so the wrist is supported in a neutral alignment to limit flexion and extension during sleep. During activities such as weightlifting or racket sports a firmer adjustment can add protection while allowing movement. For tasks requiring fine dexterity, loosen the strap slightly to regain fingertip control.
The strap is machine washable according to common practice for textile supports, however check any included care instructions to preserve elasticity. It may not be the best option if you require rigid splinting or have severe swelling that needs medical intervention.
