Actimove Manus Forte Plus, wrist support

Actimove Manus Forte Plus, Wrist Brace

Wrist brace with additional thumb support via a diagonal strap—the other fingers remain free.

Description

The Actimove Manus Forte Plus is the wrist brace for cases where the thumb also needs to be immobilized—such as with skier’s thumb or rhizarthrosis. Extra-wide, non-elastic Velcro straps and a moldable aluminum splint on the palm side secure the wrist.

The thumb support is provided by a diagonally positioned strap. This design securely holds the thumb joint in place without restricting movement of the other four fingers—so the hand retains its grip. The materials are breathable and latex-free.

• The remaining four fingers remain fully mobile

Summary

Anyone who has to immobilize their thumb usually loses the use of their entire hand. The diagonal strap on the Manus Forte Plus immobilizes the thumb joint while allowing the other fingers to move—that’s what sets it apart from the traditional thumb-and-hand splint.
