ABSTRACT:
An anatomically molded wrist support for use by persons requiring protection from the effects of vibration and repetitive motion is described. The support is comprised of one or more stays and a means for securing this plurality of stays to a hand of a wearer in a wrap-around manner. On the palm side of the support, the stays are used to provide a bias for a slight dorsiflexed position of the wrist. The stays are splayed or flared outwardly towards the palm engaging end to provide a broader region of support. The stays are preferably positioned inside pockets in a wrap-around wrist support.
