Thuasne Ligaflex Rhizo Thumb Support

Spraining your thumb is a painful injury that affects a number of different sportspeople. Suffering from thumb pain can be frustrating, but it's integral that you rest the area to prevent permanent damage. The Thuasne Ligaflex Rhizo Thumb Support uses a patented wire thumb frame to immobilise your wrist joint while allowing you to maintain your full wrist range of motion.

Who Can Make Gains with the Ligaflex Rhizo Support?

Thumb sprains are particularly common while skiing, as well as during contact and ball sports like rugby or basketball. Wearing the Ligaflex Rhizo Support helps protect the thumb from further injury while also allowing you to rest the area, which can work wonders in helping you heal quickly and effectively. This allows you to get back to the slopes or on the pitch as quickly as possible.

Sizing of the Thuasne Ligaflex Support

The Thuasne Thumb Support is available in two sizes so you can get the correct stabilisation for you. Simply measure the circumference of your wrist and consult the table below to find the correct size and select your preferred option from the drop down menu at the top of the page. 

Thumb Column Opening

The Rhizo Thumb Support has been designed with an opening at the thumb column. This prevents pressure in the area, which is integral in such a sensitive part of your hand. The opening also allows you to move the column relatively well, which is important for rehabilitation.

Comfortable Material

Using lightweight and comfortable material, the Thuasne Rhizo Thumb Brace ensures you remain as supported as possible. The brace uses a treated, antibacterial 3D knit to wick away moisture in the area so your hand and the support remain dry and secure throughout use. This means you can perform exercises and activities that don't require your thumb while you heal so you don't suffer many deficits in your performance.
