Shop / comfort cool thumb cmc restriction splint
The Push MetaGrip Thumb CMC Brace is designed to provide stability where you need it and mobility when you want it. Developed by a hand therapist, this brace is proven to relieve pain by stabilizing the CMC (basal joint) while still allowing maximum hand function, making it the most effective, streamlined, and durable thumb brace for CMC osteoarthritis.
The low-profile design of the MetaGrip features an imbedded, contoured, and malleable metal stay that allows for an individualized, custom fit. This design does not impede other joint movements, ensuring functional mobility. The dynamic stability of the brace is achieved through its design, which utilizes the thumb muscle contraction to stabilize the CMC joint. The custom, individualized snug fit around the thumb muscles provides stability during pinch and grip without hindering other joints, and the two-strap system offers maximum stability.
The MetaGrip is built to last, composed of premium, latex-free materials that resist abrasion and won't deform in hot environments. The high-temperature thermoplastic molded base ensures durability, and the brace is machine washable on a gentle cycle at low temperatures.
The MetaGrip is ideal for individuals suffering from thumb CMC joint pain due to osteoarthritis, instability of the thumb CMC joint, or for post-operative care after thumb CMC surgery. It is not recommended for those with significant subluxation and a "shoulder sign" in their thumb CMC osteoarthritis.
To find the best size, users should measure the circumference of their hand just below the knuckles of all fingers, excluding the thumb. This measurement is a guideline, as thumb sizes vary, and users may need to try on both sizes to determine the best fit.
The secret to the MetaGrip's effectiveness lies in the "squeeze" technique. Before applying the brace, the user should gently bend the metal insert slightly outward. Then, they should place the MetaGrip over their thumb as far down as possible, close the straps firmly but not too tightly, and touch their forefinger to their thumb to make a gentle "O" shape. With the thumb muscles relaxed, the user should then squeeze the metal insert to fit snugly around the base of the thumb (the thenar eminence). This process may require assistance.
The Push MetaGrip is highly recommended by medical professionals and has been proven effective in multiple studies. It is the most streamlined, durable, and comfortable CMC thumb brace for the relief of CMC osteoarthritis, allowing users to maintain their functional freedom and get back to doing what they love.
