Description:
Skier's thumb or other thumb joint injuries, osteoarthritis or joint irritation, postoperative care: For the overstretched ligaments and capsule to regenerate more quickly, the joint needs stability. We use our thumbs more than we realize. RhizoLoc provides relief, offering reliable support to the thumb to alleviate pain and promote healing and mobilization. The RhizoLoc splints the thumb at the carpometacarpal and metacarpophalangeal joints with an individually moldable aluminum brace. This allows the affected collateral ligaments to regenerate optimally. A special Velcro strap allows the degree of restriction to be adjusted as needed for therapy. The breathable material with integrated pores allows air to reach your skin, making it comfortable to wear and preventing perspiration. Thanks to the practical Velcro closure, the brace can be easily put on and taken off with the other hand. This allows for an early start to rehabilitation exercises, helping the thumb regain mobility quickly.

Indications:

• postoperative and posttraumatic irritation
• Collateral ligament injuries, e.g. skier's thumb
• Rhizarthrosis (mild grade)
• Distortions/Contusions

Notes:
The hook-and-loop straps must be securely fastened in the designated area. Air dry the product; do not tumble dry, as this may damage it. Please hand wash the brace only at 30°C using a mild detergent. Allow the brace to air dry. Regular care ensures optimal effectiveness. Please also refer to the instructions on the sewn-in label at the top of your product. Never expose the product to direct heat, as this can impair its effectiveness.
