Actimove Gauntlet - Wrist & Thumb Stabilizer

The Actimove® Gauntlet stabilises the wrist and the thumb's MCP joint while the fingers stay completely free to work. Anatomically shaped stays carry the wrist, and a separate thumb stay holds the MCP joint, so the brace can take the load off a painful thumb base without immobilising the hand.

The palmar stay is removable, which means one brace can be worn on the left or the right hand - useful in a clinic, and useful if the problem moves. Removing it also steps the support down when less stability is wanted.

It is built from a soft material that is not made with natural rubber latex, with contoured strap ends that do not dig in. The slip-on design and individually adjustable straps make it quick to fit, and it can be put on with one hand.

Is this the right one for you?

Choose this if the thumb is involved as well as the wrist.

Everyday ache from overuse? Sporlastic Wrist Strap is a lighter support.

Diagnosed with arthritis? Actimove Arthritis Care Gloves is built for arthritic hands.

Need firmer support? Actimove Manus Forte Plus Wrist & Thumb Brace holds the wrist more firmly.

It is a slip-on brace, so it can be fitted with the other hand out of action.

  • Slide the hand into the brace with the straps at the back of the hand
  • Check the thumb sits in its own opening and the thumb stay runs along the thumb
  • Fasten the straps one at a time, working from the wrist outwards
  • Use moderate tension: firm, without restricting the fingers
  • To wear it on the other hand, remove the palmar stay, turn it over and reinsert it
