Thumb Spica Series

The Thumb Spica series includes the Sports Thumb Spica and the Thumb Guard Spica. These orthoses comfortably restrict the motion of the basilar joint and maintain the thumb in a neutral position. Both embody an anatomically correct design that contours the orthosis to the palmar area of the hand. This allows full range of motion of the fingers for both styles, and full range of motion of the wrist for the Thumb Guard Spica. The Sports Thumb Spica, conversely, limits abduction of the wrist. The spicas are made of a hypoallergenic linear polyethylene plastic and are easily customized utilizing a heat gun and scissors, as shown in the modification procedures. Each is provided with one presewn double layer cotton stockinette. Additional stockinette and straps are available separately.
