Benefits of Silversplints

Comfortable - Silversplints are designed to be functional and effective, with as little material as possible. Silver is a light metal, which allows for an open, lightweight structure. Thanks to its open shape and antibacterial properties, the Splint does not irritate the skin and prevents sweating.

Adjustable - Silversplints are adjustable thanks to the properties of silver. Silver is “soft” enough to bend or adjust its form. Therefore Silversplints can be adjusted to the specific fit or wishes of its wearer.

Pain relief - Silversplints can be effective in many cases such as Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis, hyperextension and laxity of joints due to Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS) and Hypermobility syndrome.
