PUSH Ortho CMC Thumb Brace (Right - Size 1) Osteoarthritis, Reduces Pain, Post-Operative Brace, CMC Stability, Contoured Metal Insert, Waterproof

This is a game changer. Yes it is expensive but so worth it. Instant relief and I can do things now without dropping stuff in pain

Left size 1. I developed an issue with my left CMC thumb joint in my mid-late 40s. I love yoga and spin and found I was increasingly unable to support myself or grip tightly with my left hand. I tried various neoprene supports and found them too bulky and they weren't giving me the support I needed. I read through lots of reviews for this product as it's expensive but decided to measure up and give it a try. It's been absolutely brilliant. It's helped me build the strength back up in my left hand, wrist, arm and shoulder as I'd started to make less of an effort, taking easier options or letting my right side take the strain.. I have since been referred by my GP to physio (who was very interested to see this product and hear my feedback) and the thumb exercises I was given have helped to loosen up the joint. I do these exercises almost daily and use this support when I know I'll be putting strain on the joint through exercise or lifting/pulling heavy bags.

I have a problem with my CMC joint and after the latest surgery was looking for a thumb support that would not limit the movement of my wrist. I have had a trusty psb support for many years but it was finally on death's door and a rather funny colour so thought I would give this ago. Positives It completely immobilises the CMC joint without restricting movement for the rest of the thumb/wrist = less pain :-) It's fairly discreet as hand supports go and not too bulky. Washing machinable Having quite small hands it's tricky to find a thumb support that fits properly and doesn't rub. This fits great. Negatives If I wear it too long I get stiff which causes a different type of pain. However as it does not effect the wrist it's not the end of the world. Another reviewer commented that it had no velcro which seemed like a massive advantage (that's what gave out on the psb support) as was hoping for a longer lasting support as my condition is only going to get worse. Having washed it a number of times the velcro is already less effective after a few months so it doesn't bode well. Would I buy one again, certainly. It isn't the cheapest option but without affecting wrist movement it is worth investing in. I sleep in it and wear it for long distance driving, jogging, house work etc so wear it quiet a lot I guess. However if I wear it a bit during the day as well as over night, I do wake up stiff and consequently achy. So I am thinking about getting a psb one again as they are less rigid (better for sleeping?) but that doesn't mean I will stop using this one either.

Having had a severely arthritic trapezium bone removed from my dominant right hsnd, I was advised to protect the same bone in my left hsnd which was already becoming painful. I bought the Push Ortho Brace which, although expensive, has msny advantages over the more familiar thumb and wrist guards available, it does not restrict the use of my thumb, I can wear a glove over it for gardening and other activities which strain the joint and, above all, it is extremely comfortable. I wear it at night when the joint begins to ache and tends to keep me awake. Worth every penny.......and Amazon was the cheapest site from which to purchase. Highly recommended.

Arrived very swiftly and nicely packaged. Very very expensive considering it's just a piece of rubber (with internal brace) attached to quite flimsy velcro covered strips across the back of the hand. Designed to 'cup' the thumb joint immobilising just the thumb and leaving the rest of the hand and fingers clear for movement. Which would have been great had the proportions been correct for my hand. I have small slim hands so ordered the size 1 (having measured my hand as instructed before ordering). However, the distance between the base of my thumb joint and the thumb itself was bigger than the brace permitted and thus no matter how I adjusted it using the velcro strips, it just didnt fit correctly over the ball joint part and was very uncomfortable, it even gave me cramp/pins and needles. Such a shame because the innovative design should have worked but didnt. I would have given it probably four stars if I hadn't had to pay first for postage to have it delivered then found the returns label needed postage paying again to send it back. I'm now nearly £9 out of pocket for something that I couldnt use through no fault of my own. Not a happy bunny here.

I have arthritis and require a CMC ligament reconstruction and possible trapeziumectomy. My thumb is now dislocated and painful. I have tried various splints, none of which hold my thumb where I need support. My specialist recommended the PUSH support brace, so I invested in it. Sadly I find it uncomfortable. In order for it to hold my thumb effectively I need it to be fairly tight but when tight enough it digs into my flesh at both the top and bottom edges of the hard plastic part and the Velcro straps pinch my skin. After wearing it for a while the pinching wears off, I think this is because the Velcro loosens, but looser it is not effective. I have cut a felt liner for it which helps somewhat. I think that if the plastic part went about 1/2” lower and the straps went diagonally (Crisscross) across my hand it would pull (push) in the right directions with better results. I also think that there should be a soft liner supplied to stop the pinching. The cost of the PUSH support is exorbitant for what it is, however if it really did the job I would say it’s worth every penny. I believe the design is close to being good but is not good enough. To the makers I say ...make the hard plastic spongier but still rigid, perhaps a spongy lining, back the Velcro in a soft backing, make the hard plastic part slightly deeper towards the wrist and redesign the Velcro straps so they crisscross and pull in the right directions. Having said all this I have given it 3 stars because it is better than any of the other splints I’ve tried. With design improvements I think it could get 5 stars, so PUSH listen to those of us who desperately need this help, and if you listen to what we say I believe this splint could make a huge difference.

I love these! I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome which means my joints are very lax. My thumbs partially dislocate very easily so I need bracing all the time. If you need support for your thumbs that you need to wear bracing much of the time these are wonderful. They are comfortable and retain full movement of the hands, whilst stabilising the thumb joint. Fabulous! I can get on and do the housework in these and almost forget I'm wearing them. The only downside is the price, but braces aren't cheap anyway, but they are the best investment I've made, and I've tried many on the market.

The hard plastic made it very uncomfortable I returned the item.

This helped a lot . I can’t wear it for to long as I have a reaction to the plastic . Overall great brace

I've been using product for a few days now and I notice significant improvement in how my thumbs feels. The protection it provides on and around affected area is reassuring. Product is perfect for everyday task and flexible in wear. I used in gym yesterday and had to adjust alittle but was able to complete task without any problems. Does not interfere with my typing, data entering. Happy with product.

La talla según las medidas que aportan va bien. Es muy buena opción para la rizartrosis, sujeta correctamente la articulación que se necesita para evitar el progreso de la deformidad y es cómoda y agradable la sensación.

Excelente producto, de calidad, funcional. Llego antes de la fecha de entrega.

Es la mejor que he tenido para mi rizartrosis. Te deja libertad de movimiento en el resto de la mano mientras te sujeta formidablemente el dedo reduciendo muchísimo el dolor. Es muy fácil de limpiar. He tenido otras y como está ninguna. Recomendable 100%
