Who Can Benefit From the Ulnar Deviation Brace?

Children with ulnar dysplasia are born with a short or missing ulnar bone, causing the hand and wrist to turn and hyper-extend outward. Thankfully if caught early and treated then the majority of cases can be improved markedly. Ulnar supports are not a substitute for other forms of treatment but they can be a helpful addition to other treatments.

How Effective Are Supports at Treating Ulnar Deviation?

I ordered a pair of these splints. The Right one came quickly although I had been advised to expect a delay from the manufacturer's side.
The customer service was excellent and I was kept informed constantly throughout the order process.
The splints themselves fit the client very well and although it is early days, appear to be doing what they are meant to and they are being tolerated well so I can assume they are comfortable.
I would use your company again.
Thanks for Great Service
