Perfect solution to pregnancy carpal tunnel

I bought these wrist supports in the last 3 weeks of my pregnancy as I had developed carpal tunnel in both my wrists. My dominant hand in particular was incredibly painful and I was struggling with even the most simple of daily tasks. These compression sleeves were an absolute godsend! I used the size calculator and they fit me perfectly - tight enough to support the hand wrist and arm, but loose enough that I wasn’t losing circulation or in discomfort. They were excellent quality and arrived super fast even though I live in a regional area. Highly recommend!!

Good Support

In the the third trimester I was getting excruciating pain in my wrists, particularly overnight. The gloves definitely provided wrist support for me, but didn’t reduce the swelling in my thumb and fingers. The first couple of wears I didn’t notice a difference in the pain overnight but I persevered and found that they definitely reduced the pain. I did notice that both gloves say they are left hand gloves, I don’t know if this makes a difference in effectiveness or not.

Great product

Just as the name suggests, it’s truly a helping hand in my post natal phase.

Ill fitting

Sleeve was fitted around the hand but huge around the forearm, I could slip two fingers inside the material without even stretching it. Not sure sure it’s so big around that part.

Hi Courtney. This seems odd. We’d like to see if we can help with the fit. We’ll reach out directly to get some extra measurements and see what the issue is. Thanks

Numbing, tingling, discomfort, or swelling in your wrists and fingers in late stages of pregnancy or post pregnancy. We made this compression wrist sleeve to help provide support and relief.

Firm yet comfortable, the compression sleeve offers flexible support to your hands and wrists to help you perform tasks requiring the use of your hands with greater ease.

EXTRA Stats you need to know

  • About 35% of women experience a tingling, burning feeling, numbness or pain in their fingers in the later stages of pregnancy (carpal tunnel). Increased fluid in your body during pregnancy may cause swelling in your wrists and hand, which can put pressure on the nerves through to your wrist and fingers.

  • Post pregnancy up to 50% of women experience thumb and wrist pain for other reasons (Dequervian's Tenosynovitis). Activities from caring for your baby can result in a sudden increase in load on the thumb and wrist which can result in swelling & weakness.
