Wrist Hand Orthosis (WHO)
A Wrist Hand Orthosis is a supportive brace designed to stabilize, protect, and improve wrist and hand function. It may help manage pain, support weak muscles, prevent deformity, or assist recovery after injury or neurological conditions.

- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Arthritis or joint inflammation
- Stroke or neurological conditions affecting hand function
