FAQs

How do I determine the right size for my wrist?

Measure the circumference of your wrist at the indicated point on the product's sizing chart and select the corresponding size (S, M, L, or XL).

Can I wear this support while sleeping?

It is generally recommended to wear the support during waking hours when you are active. Consult your healthcare provider for specific advice on nighttime use.

Is this support suitable for severe wrist injuries?

This support provides light compression and therapeutic warmth. For severe injuries or conditions requiring rigid immobilization, consult a healthcare professional for a more appropriate solution.

How often should I wash the wrist support?

Wash the support when it appears dirty or loses its freshness. Follow the care instructions for hand washing with mild detergent and cold water.

Will this support help with carpal tunnel syndrome?

While the compression and warmth may offer some relief for carpal tunnel symptoms, it is not specifically designed for its treatment. Consult a healthcare provider for diagnosis and treatment options.

Can I wear another brace over this support?

Wearing multiple supports may alter compression and comfort. It is best to use the Actimove Arthritis Care Wrist Support on its own unless advised otherwise by a healthcare professional.

Troubleshooting

Support feels too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If it still feels too tight, loosen its position slightly or consider a size up if you are between sizes.

Warmth effect is not noticeable

The heat retention works by reflecting your body's natural heat. Ensure the support is worn snugly against the skin. Continuous wear for a period may be needed to feel the full effect.

Skin irritation occurs

Although made with latex-free material, discontinue use if irritation persists and consult a healthcare professional. Ensure the support is clean and dry.
