Wrist brace or wrap

Wrist brace or wrap

Wrist braces and wraps help support the loss of strength in the hands and arms due to ALS progression. They helped me keep working longer.

Description

I have had a love hate relationship with wrist braces. Initially, when I went to a physical therapist, they gave me a brace with a moldable bar on the bottom. However, this was too restrictive and limited my ability to use the RollerMouse.

We switched to these wrap style braces which worked better with the RollerMouse. They helped me keep working longer.
