Just like the one my dr gave me. My insurance covered the one my dr gave me, but I wanted an extra so I could have one when I wash one. It’s good!
Great product and fast shipment
I can’t recommend this brace enough. The Hely & Weber deQ Thumb Orthosis was exactly what I needed to recover from De Quervain’s.
Before finding this, I tried multiple thumb spica splints that all claimed to help with De Quervain’s—but they actually made things worse. Most of them put pressure in the wrong places and caused more soreness and irritation. What makes this orthosis different is the unique open-stay design, which is surprisingly hard to find. It provides the support you need without aggravating the affected area.
From the moment I started using it, I noticed a difference. It stabilized my thumb and wrist properly while still being comfortable enough to wear throughout the day. It truly supported my healing process instead of setting me back like the others.
If you’re dealing with De Quervain’s and struggling to find something that actually works, this is it. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone going through the same thing.
I have a four month old and have been dealing with DeQuervain's Tenosynovitis since the third trimester. I tried a drug store brace, which actually felt ok and helped, but had too much material on the palms and was too scratchy (the fabric and the velcro) to wear while caring for my baby. That meant there was only a very limited time during the day (and not at all during the night) that I could wear it.
I couldn't tell from the photos online if this one would work, but I contacted OrthOut and the rep assured me that this one was not scratchy at all. Great customer service thanks!
I bought two and am glad I did. After wearing overnight, the base of my thumbs feels better (was always worse in the morning without). I can wear these while caring for my baby, which is awesome! They don't much if any material covering the palms and the fabric and velcro on this one are soft enough that when I hold my baby it's not hurting him. Very happy with this purchase and highly recommend to anyone with "mommy thumb".
