The RhizoLoc OA relieves the painful carpometacarpal joint and the metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb in cases of osteoarthritis, arthritis as well as after injuries or surgery. The narrow plastic brace immobilizes the thumb down to the distal interphalangeal joint and keeps the thumb and index finger in a defined position. This makes grasping movements possible and the base of the thumb is guided in relieving extension. The stabilizing effect of the orthosis helps reduce pain and supports everyday activities as well as functional therapy measures.

The RhizoLoc OA is adjusted to the size of the palm and the hand circumference via two straps with holes. Patients can put on the light orthosis with one hand and secure the strap via a clip. A thumb strap made of soft, self-engaging Velcro velour provides additional support and protects clothing and surfaces. The textile wrap can be released to wash hands or rinse it. Rounded edges increase wearing comfort and the perforations ensure breathability. Size and right/left version can be found on the inside of the orthosis.
