    LIGAFLEX RHIZO - HIGH QUALITY WRIST AND THUMB SUPPORT

    Posted by Frank Cole on 20th Apr 2021

    This provides excellent and comfortable support for my thumb-wrist joint that is affected with osteoarthritis due to old injuries. I have used the support for 9 months and have just bought another support as the Velcro wrist strap no longer stays in place (in spite of cleaning the micro hooks). I can still use the old support under a glove but without that, having the strap flapping around is a nuisance. It might have helped if it were 4cm longer.

    My wife has arthritis in the thumbs and tried these supports. The right hand needed manipulating to fit but the left hand just doesn't fit well with the part for the webbing at a very odd angle and cannot get to fit

    ideal for resting the joint

    Posted by Mark Bennett on 5th Jul 2016

    I have arthritis in the base of both thumbs and already have one for the other hand, fits comfortably and allows the wrist to move, I needed the squeeze the wire stays, on both, to get a better pinch grip otherwise i couldn't grip anything, easy to do though. The only other thumb support I've used was an elastic thumb spica which had a metal strut which was difficult to form into shape and pressed on the joint, the Ligaflex Rhizo has the wire strut between the thumb and finger so no pressure on the joint.
