These gloves are great to wear if you have arthritis in your wrist, hand, or thumb and are a wonderful support following hand surgery. Almost all other writst/thumb support devices have seams that press against the tender surgery areas, but these have the seams on the outside of the glove rather than on the inside so tender areas stay protected! The gloves are machine washable and very easy to use. Plus they feel great!

I have rheumatoid arthritis and these gloves allow me to knit and crochet even when I'm having a bad flare. It takes a little getting use to but it's worth it to be able to continue your hobby.
I actually originally bought these to wear when I play the piano, but they do not work well for that purpose. They provide good support but too much resistance, I find myself working against the stretch of the fabric and end up hurting even worse because of it.
The one drawback to this product is the gloves are pretty ugly. It seems like there ought to be a way to make them at least a little more attractive, some flower embroidery or different colors - anything!

Best of the ones I've tried. Outside seams cause less irritation to the hand and the gloves offer firm support to both the hand and the fingers. Don't be afraid to purchase if you need the support for only one hand. The special way the gloves are seamed means that both gloves can be used for just one hand, as in carpal tunnel syndrome.

I have the unfortunate situation where I have Carpal Tunnel and arthritis at the same time in my hands and arms. I figured the fingerless feature of these gloves would make it easier to work. Believe me I've gone through a lot of products. These gloves are helpful in many ways. Some days my hands get very cold and numb and these gloves seem to put enough pressure on them to bring back the warmth in my hands. They do get rid of some of the pain but not completely. Wearing them along with wrist braces can be very soothing than wearing either gloves or braces alone. They help more when I'm sleeping, keeping my hands warm and I wake with less pain. One added bonus to the gloves is because they retain heat (not a lot. They don't get uncomfortable) I can put a hand cream on before wearing them and it's like getting a spa treatment. And if you do wish to use Bengay or Aspercream under them they slightly intensify the results. I would recommend them but I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 because the stitching on the hems comes unraveled easily but the fabric doesn't fray so it doesn't really matter. And if you can sew fixing them isn't a problem. It's just because they stretch so far and the thread doesn't. Still worth it. They were delivered within a couple of days. Very quick.

I wore these every night last winter to help with a bad arthritis attack. I should have bought the small as the medium I bought was a little large. But they still provided warmth and comfort. Easy on, easy off.

I have arthritis in almost all of my fingers. I'm also a crafter. These gloves are really great as compression for the swelling and pain, but with the fingertips missing, I'm still able to do a lot of things with less pain.

Bought these glove to help with arthritis pain. At the same time, I purchased a pair of Imak arthritis gloves. The Imaks are so much better! What I do like about these gloves is that the go far above my wrists thereby giving some relief in tht area.

These gloves are great, they are long on your fingers and come down on your wrist more. They really help me. Thanks

I ordered the Therapeutic Gloves by Isotoner, size medium and was pleased at the prompt arrival of the item. Unfortunately the size medium was to large, so I contacted the shipper for information on how to return and replace them with a smaller size. This was done very professionally and in a friendly manner and the wait for the replacement was short. I am very satisfied with the product and the service.

I purchased these gloves for use at work (IP Operator). The keep my hands warm and allow fingers to be used for typing/work. The are just what I was looking for. And they are snug and helpful for arthritis. :)
