Excellent value for money. The quality is well made for the price, specifically the soft bag on the insider where the palm lays supplies much comfort. The Velcro quality is also good. Currently I use them every other night to help with carpal tunnel and it has gave me mobility improvement. I do a lot of research prior to buying but they were much better than I even thought. Which I can’t say for many products. I even bought a pair for my mother because I liked them so much. Only wish they had a simple left and right pack they were sold in just to get rid of the inconvenience of having to do two separate ordered item. Read more

The Doctor Brace straps hook and loop material is VERY aggressive!!! Having worked for many years in an industry employing many varieties of hook and loop (ie "Velcro") fasteners, I can tell you that the straps on the Brace are really difficult to remove UNLESS you attach them as I have shown in the photo. I am suggesting you do not lay the straps across the loops EVENLY. Yo should angle them slightly which will provide a small "pull tab" which will give you something to grab hold of. If you do that, you should have very little trouble "peeling" the strap off. Now - as to the Brace's performance, I am very pleased with my first night wearing the Dr. Brace. Usually I awake many times, have to shake my arm, twist my head, and any other movements I need to do to get my hand to stop hurting, tingling, or cramping. Last night - the first night I wore the brace - I actually got better sleep and had nearly NO DISCOMFORT! That said, I still feel that there may be a better product "out there" that will outperform this one. The reason I say that is that this brace does not seem to place much pressure onto the nerves at the base of the palm and I think that may be what the sufferer needs - more of a "pressure point" application. Still, this looks to be a well made, comfortable brace. I am glad I bought the large size, because I'm pretty sure the regular would not fit well - would have been too tight especially around my thumb. Hopefully the photo will show you how to keep from struggling to unhook the the very aggressive straps without causing you even more pain to your opposite hand and fingers - if you are an arthritis (etc) sufferer I'm sure you can resonate with my concern. Wear it in good health! 4 out of 5 stars for construction and performance. Read more
Second time buying this one in a L/XL. They last about a year being worn almost constantly. (I have a medical condition that causes tendon and ligament issues) It's extremely comfortable and the adjustable straps make it more so. The poofiness on the palm is nice too! I got this rubber thing that I think is the free gift but I have no idea what it's supposed to do. 🤷♀️ Read more
Just received this today. I put it on my wrist right away and can already feel the difference!! Comfortable fit. Easy to wear. Not too big. Not too tight. Great value for the price. I injured my wrist while gardening last fall & have strained it several times during the Winter. Getting ready for some Spring gardening & want to protect my wrist. I wish I had found this earlier! Recommended to anyone who needs a little extra support for their wrist. Read more
This brace is VERY comfortable. The material is so light it almost feels like nothing. The edges don’t bind or dig (except a tiny bit at the base of the thumb, but that’s pretty much impossible to avoid). The cushion inside keeps the palmar stay from pressing into your hand, which is a little bit of luxury I never knew I wanted. However, there is a major problem. There is no strap to tighten across the palm, only the two around the forearm. This leaves a gap on the side of my hand between the edges of the brace. Because I can’t connect those two edges, my wrist is able to flex in exactly the way I need it not to. I really wish this was the one, but I will be returning it. Read more
Ignore the hair tie on my wrist but I cannot love about this brand’s splints more than enough. I ended up coming back to purchase another one because it’s so good and the quality is unmatched. I don’t think it mentions it in the picture description but on the portion where your palm touches the splint. There is kind of like a ball support so that your hand remains in a proper position to avoid any further strain on your hand or wrist. That little detail makes the biggest difference and is what separates the split apart from others. Also along your wrist to the end of the splint, there is a physical splint in the machine to provide more support. A lot of of these splints, usually just have mesh and provide mobility, and although this does provide mobility, it gives that extra support to prevent any further injury. I do work in the hospital and have had hospital grade splints but I will continue to buy this brand over and over again. Also my previous splint from them I’ve had for a year and it still held up amazingly. The Velcro‘s do not slip. I have no wear and tear. I don’t know who needs to hear this, but I highly recommend wearing these while you’re asleep. just be mindful of how tight you put them because often times we do dinosaur hands or other words curl our hands up or twist our wrists in weird positions when we sleep therefore causing a strain so these prevent that. and I also wear these on my free time or if you’re someone who types a lot, you definitely need the support for your wrist. obviously if you’re here you use a phone so that few pounds on your wrist consistently will make a difference of strain on your wrists so when I’m not at work, I am wearing these around the clock. I do take them off briefly just to make sure that I’m getting circulation in my hands but all in all I give this a 10 out of 10 and I will recommend this to anyone. Read more
