It is the joint that works every time forceps are applied, and for this reason it is among the first to wear out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mechanism is\u003cstrong\u003ealignment\u003c\/strong\u003e: by keeping the bones of the thumb aligned, the orthosis reduces the forces exerted on the joint. Less force means less pain, and that is what the manufacturer declares together with the fact that the orthosis \u003cstrong\u003elimits evolution\u003c\/strong\u003e of the painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe word that distinguishes this model from others is \u003cstrong\u003eflexible\u003c\/strong\u003e.

They are movements that are repeated dozens of times a day without us thinking about them, and this is the reason why a pain at the base of the thumb is felt with everything the hands do, and not with just one activity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt washes in \u003cstrong\u003ewashing machine at 40 degrees\u003c\/strong\u003e inside the \u003cstrong\u003ewashing bag\u003c\/strong\u003e supplied in the package, which is the detail that extends its life.
