5.0 out of 5 stars Wellgate Women's Slimfit Wrist Support- Give It a Hand!, April 13, 2010

Now here's a great idea- a wrist support just for women- and its about time too! This product has many features that puts it head and shoulders above the rest. For instance:

-it has a slimmer design
-utilizes memory foam
-is white, a contrast to the usual beige coloring

So who should get the brace? Anyone who has wrist/elbow issues and needs to decrease the motion of their wrist. The most obvious users will be people who have carpal tunnel- a condition caused by compression of the median nerve at the wrist, leading to mild to severe pain and pins and needles in the hand. Recent reviews have found that wrist splints such as these are highly effective at relieving symptoms (O'connor 2003). Of course consider this brace for any wrist/forearm overuse problem and anytime you need to immobilize your wrist.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great brace, NOT just for small women!, March 11, 2008

I bought this and several other braces to try out. I have tendinitis/carpal tunnel in both wrists/hands. I teach online English courses for several universities -- as this is how I make my living, it is essential that I have effective support for my wrists so that I am able to type and work online for 10+ hours a day without being in excruciating pain. This is by *far* the best brace of all that I've tried. I'm not a small woman -- I'm 5'8" and have meat on my bones, but this brace fits just fine. I prefer it to the other braces I've tried because it leaves me with much greater range of motion from the upper palm up to the tips of my fingers. Other braces made it hard to type, but not this one. I'm really happy with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wrist support for anybody with small wrists, January 21, 2010

First of all, the idea that this product is made "for women" is just a marketing ploy to get money from those people who will buy something if they can be fooled into believing that it was made "specially for them". This is a nice, comfortable, soft wrist brace that will fit most people, regardless of gender, orientation, race, or planet of origin, if they have wrists on the small side. I'm a man with 6.25 inch circumference wrists, and it works great.

It is not the softest wrist support I've ever used. But it is reasonably comfortable and good for wearing to bed. I don't wear it during the day. Before this, I was wearing the IMAK smart glove, which amazon also sells. That is softer (and warmer, for better or worse) than this Wellgate wrist support, but it is not rigid. It allows some movement. The Wellgate is rigid and well designed so that the Velcro doesn't drag along the flannel sheets picking up lint as you sleep.
