distortion of MCP-1 joint
instability in the MCP-1 joint

Mode of action

The PSB Thumb Brace stabilises and protects the middle thumb joint (MCP-1) and offers relief in case of persisting pain in the thumb as a result of overstretching or sprain of the thumb (skiing thumb). It supports the thumb when the thumb joint has become unstable as a result of straining of the joint ligament. The strapping in the brace compensates for additional movement brought about by the damaged ligament.

It is also designed to prevent injury to the thumb by backward or sideward movement, a common injury in skiing. The sports brace is also useful in ball sports e.g. rugby, basketball, etc. The brace offers the joint protection, also against impact. The undamaged joints remain free and the straps can be adjusted in such a way that the thumb can function normally. The brace leaves the wrist entirely free and in no way restricts the wrist movement. The brace is perfectly suited for wearing during sport.
