What size Thumb Orthosis do I need?

With the help of a measuring tape, measure the width of your palm. Refer to the chart below to find the right size and ensure you order the correct hand side (left or right).

How do I put on and fasten the product?

Unfasten the wrist and thumb straps and slide your hand into the brace with the straps at the back of your hand, ensuring your thumb is put through the thumb opening. Close the strap around your thumb first, then close the straps around the hand. The orthosis can be moulded on the individual hand shape for best fit.

How do I clean the Thumb Orthosis?

Close all straps before washing. The Rhizo Forte Thumb Orthosis is hand washable only (in water not exceeding 40°C) with a mild detergent. Do not bleach, dry-clean, tumble dry or iron. Lay the product flat when drying and ensure it is completely dry before use. Avoid using laundry additives like fabric softener, brightener, or stain remover.

What is this product designed for?

Designed to support pain relief by positioning the thumb functionally while immobilising the carpometacarpal (CMC) and first metacarpophalangeal (MCP1) joints. This can help reduce the discomfort associated with:

• Thumb osteoarthritis
• Rheumatoid arthritis of the thumb
• Soft tissue injuries (sprains)
• Post-surgical and non-surgical treatment
• Ulnar collateral ligament injuries of the MCP1 joint (e.g. skier’s thumb)
• Instability of the CMC joint
• Traumatic thumb dislocation
• Ligament instabilities
