Modified Elastic Thumb Spica (Latex-Free)

With one-way stretch elastic, this Modified Elastic Thumb Spica (Latex-Free) provides excellent support for the wrist and thumb. The 10cm removable thumb stay restricts movement for the MCP and CMC joints, maximising mobility by leaving the IP joint and the palm unhindered.

What Support Does the Modified Spica Provide?

The spica works using angled hook and loop closure to provide support at the wrist alongside a 10cm removable thumb stay to support the MCP and CMC joints. One-way stretch elastic maximises the spica's adjustability ensuring not only the perfect fit but also variability of compression.
