VELPEAU Thumb Support Brace - CMC Joint Stabilizer Orthosis, Spica Splint for Osteoarthritis, Instability, Tendonitis, Arthritis Pain Relief for Women Men, Comfortable, Adjustable (Right Hand-Medium)

Cons - quality of velcro not up to the mark: also does not provide support to the junction of CMC Joint, Thumb Trapezium and the Wrist Bone. Personally unless the split provides collective support to all these zones, this product will continue to be so so type of product.

Product is not upto the mark and does not served the purpose it meat for

I crochet. A lot. And I text. Fast AND a lot. On top of it all I had an injury on my left thumb a couple of years ago and I didn’t really take care of it right away.A while later I had to wear a brace and ended up overusing my right thumb and now they both hurt.Yeey.At least they take turns.Some braces I have are great and they really help but they are also very restrictive, and hard to wear all the time.Also to feel any improvement I had to wear them for weeks.Someone suggested this one because it was recommended by their orthopedist. I was going through a flare up on BOTH thumbs and out of desperation decided to try.I bought one. For my right thumb which was hurting the most at the time.I put it in as soon as it arrived.Oh first let me tell you. It comes with an extra Velcro band and a little compression slip that pretty much covers just the area this goes on your hand. That’s great.I got size small and it fit perfectly.Right away I felt a huge difference. The it pressed against my hand gave me instant comfort and support without the pain.It’s not restricting and allows me to do stuff without the sharp pains.I used for a week and the pain got soooo much better.I ended buying for my left thumb too.I totally recommend tho.

I’ve tried several and most were very uncomfortable. If not painful. These are the best I’ve tried they’re comfortable- however they only lasted one month. The blue pulled away from the gray, Very sadJoanie

When at me Dr visit for my follow up on my knee replacement, mentioned to him that my osteoporosis arthritis in my hand seemed to be acting up, and when he just looked at it. he said my CMC joint was swollen, and can get a brace to help it. Suggested a huggie style and check Amazon. Well was shocked to see the prices!! Decided to take a chance on the Velpeau, for the price, and the fact that you can switch out the velcro strap, even though the reviews mention the separation issue, but they did say it worked until then. Well I got mine Dec 3rd, wear it almost every day, and have found great relief. Around March 8th brace felt a little different and when I looked @ it I noticed that the blue part was starting to separate. Contacted Velpeau and they were sorry for issue and asked for picture and sent them one. They promptly responded & were replacing it, I had a new one by March 12th!! I was so pleased w/ the brace that I purchased one for my right hand as well, in Jan. which doesn't act up as much.That one is still fine. I did change the velcro strap on my first left one little before it separated, not because of a velcro issue , but jit does get a little dirty & it was suggested in a review not washing it as it get a little stiff. The straps are cheap enough for 2 and worth getting just for sanitary reasons. I also purchase additional thumb sleeves as well for the same reason. The replacing of the straps was a big selling point for me, as the more expensive Push one has an attached strap and once the velcro goes, it's no good, your brace( @ $100) becomes useless. Even with getting the replacement straps, the cost is still better over time. The brace has the metal insert that you can adjust to fit you just right.the thumb sleeves help , no skin contact w/ the brace and my hand isn't sweaty. I also like the fact that it is less restrictive than others and that I can easily use my hands. Take a chance, I did and I'm so glad I did. I found that Velreau is a company that stands behind its product, not something you see much of these days. Quick replacement was sent and have no issues. Was worth taking a chance, the brace works and I found relief. I suggest giving it a try, think it's best brace for the price, but it also works.

I should have trusted the many reviews about how cheap this product is–material is cheap and falls apart after two weeks. Did add some support with issue but not helpful if it falls apart so quickly. Thankfully I can get a full refund. Don't waste your money or time on this and look for something else.
