BraceX Recommended Brace for Advanced Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Severe Wrist Immobilization 🖐️💤
 
Description:
The Bauerfeind ManuLoc Long Plus is the most supportive model in Bauerfeind’s ManuLoc series — offering extended wrist, forearm, and thumb stabilization for the management of advanced or post-surgical carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and complex wrist injuries.
 
Building upon the trusted ManuLoc Long, the Long Plus adds an integrated thumb support to limit both wrist and thumb motion, providing maximum relief to the median nerve and surrounding structures. This design prevents painful wrist flexion and thumb opposition, allowing the inflamed tissues to rest and heal effectively.
 
Despite its high level of stabilization, the ManuLoc Long Plus remains lightweight and breathable, with adjustable aluminum stays and Velcro straps that allow a precise, comfortable fit. It’s the BraceX recommended brace for further management of more severe cases of carpal tunnel syndrome, especially when both wrist and thumb immobilization are required.
 
Key Features:
 
Extended Wrist & Forearm Immobilization: Provides full control of the wrist and lower forearm.
Integrated Thumb Support: Stabilizes the thumb in a functional position to reduce tendon and nerve irritation.
Adjustable Aluminum Stays: Custom-molded to the patient’s anatomy for optimal positioning and comfort.
Rigid Yet Lightweight Frame: Ensures strong immobilization without excess bulk.
Breathable, Skin-Friendly Material: Soft, ventilated design allows all-day wear.
