The Velpeau CMC Thumb Brace for Osteoarthritis has been a true lifesaver for me. From the moment I put it on, I felt an immediate difference in both comfort and support. Dealing with CMC joint pain can be tough, but this brace makes it so much more manageable. The first thing you'll notice is how soft and comfortable the material is. It's gentle against the skin, and I can wear it all day without any discomfort. The design is sleek and discreet, which means I can go about my daily activities without feeling self-conscious. Whether I'm typing away at my computer or enjoying a walk outside, the brace stays in place and provides consistent support. One of the best aspects of this brace is its adjustability. The straps are easy to use, allowing me to customize the fit to exactly what I need. This ensures that the brace provides optimal support for my thumb without being too tight or too loose. Another thing I love about the Velpeau Thumb Brace is how easy it is to clean. Just a quick rinse and it's good to go, which is fantastic for someone with an active lifestyle like mine. It dries quickly too, so I never have to worry about it being out of commission for long. Overall, I can't recommend the Velpeau CMC Thumb Brace enough for anyone dealing with thumb joint issues. It's a small investment that provides significant relief and comfort. Highly recommend giving it a try! Read more

Well made aftermarket alternative to the ‘original’ brand product that cost 3x the price of this product. Another time I tried an even cheaper aftermarket alternative than this one , but the quality of the cheaper one was way too poor. This product seems to be the sweet spot of price, durability and functionality. Kudos - Happy Customer Read more
This didn't help my thumb arthritis at all. Too flimsy for my purposes. Read more
It's an effective and comfortable brace. It's losing 2 starts because after 5 months of usage, the velcro closure is curling up and no longer sticking the strap. Is there a replacement strap available? Read more
The Velpeau CMC Thumb Brace works wonderfully for my Osteoarthritis. It is comfortable, easily adjustable and does not irritate the skin even after prolonged use. It relieves the pain during various activities such as plaing my guitar and doing yoga excercises such as "downward-facing dog" which put considerable pressure on the CMC area. Another important advantage is that, unlike other products, it is very compact, which enables me to wear it under my gym gloves or mountain bike gloves, for double protection during workout and riding.

I measured my palm according to the instructions. I feel that the thumb hole size is more important for a better fit. I think a bigger brace would work better for my hand. I do like the brace. It is just what my thumb needs...to stabilize the one joint that is inflamed. I have used other thumb braces and they just don't work for me since they tend to keep my thumb in an awkward position. This one allows my thumb to be in a more natural position but stabilize the joint that hurts. I would have given 5 stars if the thumb hole is bigger. Read more
