FREEDOM® Thumbkeeper Family
Finally, an off-the-shelf splint that is quick and easy to fit while offering effective support for the
CMC/MP joint. Unlike most "pre-fabs" that fit poorly, our family of FREEDOM Thumbkeeper
splints combine the ease and convenience of an out-of-the-box splint
with the proper fit and moldability of a custom solution - simply trim
with scissors or modify with hot water when minor adjustments are
needed.
Full support with the freedom to function
These splints allow the IP joint to flex as the MP joint is maintained
in the preferred resting position without restricting or impeding your
patient's ability to perform.
Complete comfort
The FREEDOM Standard Thumbkeeper and Low-Profile Thumbkeeper
feature a 1/16" Multiform thermoplastic outer shell lined with
AliPlast™ foam for cushioning not fount in most custom-fabricated CMC
splints. Our FREEDOM Form™ Custom-Moldable Thumbkeeper is fully padded with a closed-cell foam interior.

Gamekeeper's Thumb
