Effective carpometacarpal arthritis relief
Carpometacarpal arthritis, or basal joint arthritis, is the result of cartilage wear between bones at the base of the thumb. Symptoms of CMC arthritis include severe pain, swelling and decreased range of motion, which can make everyday tasks such as driving and cooking more difficult. The RhizoLoc OA relieves pain by immobilizing the thumb to relieve stress on the basal joint. It also provides relief from excessive strain following surgery or recurring joint misalignments.
Supports the thumb while allowing gripping movement
With its low-profile design and flexible two-component material, the RhizoLoc OA enhances support for the carpometacarpal joint while allowing gripping and wrist motion. Its flexible material and reinforced midsection at the crook of the thumb adapt to hand movements while securing the thumb for lasting relief and stability.
Premium wearing comfort and practicality
By combining its wraparound thumb strap, airy perforations and practical closure system, the RhizoLoc OA CMC arthritis brace delivers a high level of wearing comfort and practicality during everyday tasks. It’s easy to put on and remove with one hand and can be used when fully immersed in water. Airy perforations enhance breathability, while the adjustable strap provides a perfect fit.
