When joint pain and osteoarthritis in your thumb disrupt your night's sleep, it affects your entire day. The constant, unconscious micro-movements you make at night can worsen the pain and cause you to wake up feeling tired and stiff. The Epitact Thumb Orthosis Night Right Size M offers the targeted support you need to give your joint the rest it deserves. By gently stabilising your thumb, this orthosis helps to relieve pain and ensures a comfortable night, so that you can start your daily routine again during the day with renewed energy and freedom of movement.
The Epitact Night Orthosis is designed to keep the thumb in an anatomically correct resting position. This controlled positioning opens the joint space of the thumb base joint, reducing the pressure and friction that cause osteoarthritis pain. The orthosis uses light, comfortable materials that retain heat, which contributes to relaxing the surrounding muscles and tendons during the night.
