Thumb brace - Push Ortho | Bettercaremarket

The Thumb Brace CMC by Push Ortho is a professionally designed thumb brace ideal for thumb arthritis or thumb osteoarthritis. The thumb brace has a very functional design, as it maintains the thumb in an arch position by stabilising the joint of the thumb and placing the metacarpal in a functional position. This supports the thumb in a stable position during activities and ensures the thumb is able to properly grip objects.

The Thumb Brace CMC Push Ortho Is Perfect for Thumb arthritis

The Thumb Brace CMC from Push Ortho has been designed and developed in collaboration with two eminent hand therapists. The special orthotic is widely recognised by medical professionals as the best thumb brace on the market for the treatment of CMC joint injuries.

Osteoarthritis of the Carpometacarpal joint of the thumb (CMC-1) or thumb arthritis is a very common thumb joint pain. It causes functional instability of the joint at the base of the thumb as a result of weakening of the ligaments. Thumb arthritis is considered to be the wear and tear of the articular cartilage and affects 1 in 5 people between 40 - 60 years old.

How does the Thumb Brace by Push Ortho work?

The Thumb brace helps to provide pain relief from a CMC joint pain while allowing freedom of movement in the other part of the hand and wrist. The thumb brace support helps to create maximum functioning of the hand so you can continue with your everyday activities.

The Thumb Brace by Push Ortho differs fundamentally from other existing thumb supports: no more custom made orthotics to stabilise the CMC-1 thumb joint. The ground breaking design is achieved by having a pre-formed flexible enclosure which goes around the ball of the thumb and a fixed connection running along the palm to the outside of the hand. This can be closed at the back of the hand with two Velcro straps.

The cylindrical section consists of two components: an aluminium splint and a flexible, moulded thermoplastic part. The aluminium strip is anatomically shaped and individually adapted for optimal stabilisation of the thumb joint.

The adjustable aluminium strip stabilises the thumb and positions the thumb metacarpal correctly. The best advantage is that it leaves all other joints free to move. The simple closing system enables patients to fit the brace themselves without any effort.

Who is the thumb brace by Push Ortho suitable for?

The Thumb Brace CMC by Push Ortho provides gentle pressure and stabilises the CMC joint. This makes this thumb support brace suitable to help with the following indications:

CMC-1 osteoarthritis
Postoperatively after arthroplasty of the CMC-1 joint
Instability or partial dislocation of the CMC-1 joint
