Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Symptoms and Treatment

How does The Bodyguard™ Custom Carpal Tunnel Wrist Brace reduce the effects of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

The Bodyguard™ Custom Carpel Tunnel Wrist Brace provides muscle compression, joint stabilization and support, muscle heat circulation to increase blood flow and promote healing, spreads strain on the wrist and absorbs direct impact. The inner surface of the Custom Carpel Tunnel Wrist Brace attaches to the surface of the wrist to spread strain over all the musculature and connective tissue in the wrist instead of concentrating it on the wrist as is the case with the unprotected wrist under the injury condition.

How does The Bodyguard™ Custom Carpel Tunnel Wrist Brace help if you have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

When used to protect an existing wrist injury, The Bodyguard™ Custom Carpel Tunnel Wrist Brace stabilizes and mechanically supports the wrist joint, spreads and absorbs strain and impact over the entire surface of the garment, raises muscle/joint temperature to increase blood flow and promote healing in the joint and surrounding tissue.
