This is a medical-grade orthopaedic brace that incorporates rigid structural support. Braces and orthoses built with rigid components are commonly covered under Canadian extended health benefit plans (e.g. Sun Life, Manulife, Canada Life, Blue Cross, Green Shield Canada) when accompanied by a valid prescription from your physician or nurse practitioner. It may also qualify as an eligible medical expense under the CRA's Medical Expense Tax Credit. We're happy to prepare an itemized estimate for your insurer — use Get an Insurance Estimate for this item, or add several to your cart and request one for everything at once. No charge, and it's not an order. Coverage details, annual limits, and prescription requirements vary by plan, so please confirm your specific benefits with your provider and keep your prescription and itemized receipt for your claim.

Sporlastic prints these steps in the instructions for use supplied with the product.

• The carpal tunnel syndrome brace is available in a left and right version.
• Open all the hook-and-loop fasteners and slip the affected hand into the brace.
• Move the hand forward in the brace until the recess for the thumb is reached and encloses it at its base.
• First pass the hook-and-loop tape between the thumb and index finger and fix it to the loop material on the back of the hand.
• Close the three micro hook-and-loop fasteners, fixing them at first with only a slight pull on the back of the hand.
• The one-piece CTS-RELIEF-PAD in combination with the volar reinforcement splint lifts the brace sleeve in the area of the carpal tunnel and the median nerve and protects against pressure irritation.
• If necessary, correct the fit of the brace and fix the three hook-and-loop straps so that the brace provides stability and a subjectively pleasant wearing comfort.
• After checking the optimal fit and position, fasten the straps so tightly that it is comfortable for you.
