ABSTRACT:
A therapeutic wrist support is provided allowing a person with carpal tunnel syndrome to manipulate the wrist without further aggravating this ailment. The device employs a flexible substrate which includes integral splint elements physically positioned to allow limited wrist movement in both vertical and horizontal directions with respect to the longitudinal axis of the wearer's forearm. Positioning of the splint elements is also made dependent upon whether the left or right wrist of the wearer is involved.
