• The Carpal Mate Carpal Tunnel wrist support is lightweight and designed to maintain the wrist in a neutral position while allowing full finger dexterity.
• It is designed to provide support for the wrist when performing tasks such as typing, data entry, light assembly or any repetitive tasks.
• The molded portion of the support extends from the distal forearm to just past the wrist and sits comfortably between the Thenar and Hypothenar Eminences (fatty pads of the palm).
• This design prevents the wrist from dropping and prevents excess thumb and little finger opposition.
• Controlling these motions will prevent excess flexion of the wrist and finger flexor tendons thus avoiding overuse.
• Overuse can cause tendon inflammation which causes pressure on the Median Nerve and is the cause of CTS.
• The support is held in place by a wide elastic strap that provides comfortable compressive support at the wrist.

•  Maintains wrist in orthopedically correct angle Wide elastic strap.

• How Does The Carpal Mate Work?
• Prevents Flexion:
• The Carpal Mate forms a cradle that, in conjunction with the rigid angle, holds the wrist firmly in a non-dropping, neutral position.
• Prevents Opposition:
• When the hand is properly elevated in a neutral zone, no support is needed because the fatty pads (eminences) are naturaly separated and the Carpal Tunnel is open. However, when the hand is dropped, the Carpal Mate engages the palmar pad and holds the eminences apart and restricts finger opposition.
• Reduces Radial-Ulnar Opposition:
• When moving hand from side-to-side, the Carpal Mate's palmar pad provides resistance at the Thenar and Hypothenar Eminences.
