This thumb brace is a combination between an elastic brace and a custom made thermoplastic orthosis. Thenax Opponent features a NeoTex brace with loop surface and a palmar pocket with a thermoplastic piece. The thermoplastic piece can be molded individually by using hot water, 75-80 degrees C. Simply insert the thermoplastic piece in the pocket and pour hot water in it. After approx. 1 min it's ready for application. Pour out the water and place the brace flat on a towel to absorb all the moisture. Then apply on patient.

The brace is moldable up to 3-4 mins before it sets. Thenax Opponent offers an excellent support to the thenar eminence and the CMC joint. To further assist abduction of the thumb and allowing customized support an elastic hook strap has been applied on the extension of the thumbgrip. This hook attaches to the loop surface of the brace and can be applied in many different ways to assist the thumb. If not needed it can be cut away. Thenax Opponent offers excellent functionality for patients with CMC-arthritis, ligament injuries or and general instabilities to the thumb.
