Abstract
A therapeutic hand device comprising a wrist-support section and a separate fingers-support section. The fingers-support section receives the index-finger and the middle finger, and is removably secured to the wrist-support section via a plurality of adjustable 'VELCRO' straps. An open space is defined interiorly of, and delimited by, the fingers-support section and a portion of the wrist-support section whereby when the device is worn on a hand, an object may be inserted into the open space between the fingers-section and the thumb of the hand, with the adjustable straps being used to firmly hold the thumb and fingers in a pincer hold against an object, whereby the object may be held and manipulated with support and assistance by the device.
