My wrist hurts a lot after doing yoga for some period of time, would anyone recommend this for yoga practicing in order to reduce the wrist paint??

well it depends on which part of the wrist is bothering you. I had pain on the side of my little finger and I could not get past 50 when i did the weight bearing test. I started using this for about a month. Has the pain gone away completely? No but i can tell it is coming down and I can play tennis pain free now. Ofcourse i changed a few things on my tennis game too. But i think WW has helped me and would recommend it.

yes I would recommend it for doing your yoga as I had hurt my wrist while doing palms flat on ground during yoga. Be careful as you want to avoid getting a TFCC tear/Ulnar sided wrist pain.

I wear the brace while doing pushups and yoga without problems. Although I do have to mention that this brace will help pain on the outside or ulnar side of your wrist it most likely isn't going to help with pain on the inside or radial (thumb) side of the wrist.

You should probably ask your physical therapist. I broke my wrist, the therapist introduced it at our last session. I like the way it engages the whole arm plus the core. You also need to work at least hard enough to get it to shimmy so can't cheat.

Honestly, I believe these wraps would be to tight around the wrist to pull off bodyweight exercises without pain. A plank on the other hand may be ok because this wrap features a nice cushion wrap.

I don't think it will help you.... because it's really designed to help divert pressure off of certain ligaments in your wrist that cause carpal tunnel. .. it definitely works for that purpose. So unless you are having wrist pain, this probably not the product for you.

It stretches the fingers more and for an extended period of time. I would not hold my fingers without this in a stretched position for 20 or more minutes. Both my husband and I use the yoga hands for arthritis and they DO work for us.

Also not sure about the question. I have found that either side of the mat is usable and affords traction when dry. But if my hands get a little sweaty, they begin to slip. I don't do "hot" yoga, but I don't think this would work for a really sweaty practice.

I think a yoga mat would work well. I'm on laminate flooring and my yoga mat works great for any floor exercises. You could also buy a yoga mat that is a little thicker than the usual ones if you need extra cushion.

I don't use mine for yoga, but I suspect you could. It all depends on the class, I guess. I use mine to loosen up tight muscles in my back and it works very well for that.

it is definitely good and responsive as far as performance goes. Where it really shines is the fact that due to the thickness I don't need a pad for my wrist so I am able to rest my arm level with the surface of the mouse pad, which is an ergonomic thing that varies for different people. You may very well prefer to use a rest for your wrist which means you can probably go with one of the thinner ones which I believe are cheaper.as far as size, it's plenty big enough for even the lowest sensitivity players in any game.

We got it for tennis related pain/injury that hurts side to side movement but it helps a lot for typing, piano, and any activity with large wrist movement. My daughter puts it on for everything because it helps so much. Her primary pain is in the ulnar outside of wrist and it seems to keep it in line better when she puts it on. It was well worth it to her. It is light, comfortable and she uses it. The others are too bulky and just don't seem to support the same movement.

My yoga mats are not expensive either, I think I paid between $8 and $15 for them. When mine started getting slippery I would just buy a new one but now I use the slip free rosin and it pretty much takes care of it. I'm a little weird about the chalky feeling but I wash my hands immediately after yoga and I'm fine. It is definitely worth it.

I used it twice in yoga classes and found it hard to maintain certain poses. In "downward facing dog", my hands were sliding toward the front of the mat. It left me feeling frustrated during the session, which is sort of the opposite of why I go. For push-ups, it might be OK because the pressure is more centered over your hands.

Ruben, they certainly have the potential to reduce wrist pain -- in using these such bars, the weight will be on your forearms as opposed to your hands. Make sure, too, that your saddle is properly adjusted -- ideally, your bodyweight will be distributed between your hands/arms, your saddle, and your feet. If your saddle is too high (or is angled forward), it may be that too much of your bodyweight is pressing into your hands. If you are buying these solely because of wrist pain, they very well may help -- but I personally would first make sure that your saddle is adjusted correctly :)

Hi Billy,I wear it for everything except playing tennis. I haven't tried pushups with it yet, but I have done light exercises with weights. This brace, according to the website, works best for OUTER wrist pain, not inner wrist pain. Check out their website; I know they encourage you to try several exercises to see if the brace will help. Good luck!Chris

Absolutely!!! I take it to the gym with me everyday. I love it!! It keeps me cool while on the treadmill. I really don't use it at yoga class each week. I'm planning on getting another one for this summer's grass cutting and yard work.

No I took on vacation on the cruise to use on the beach and it was great !!! I love this towel !! I'm sure it would work for yoga but it's long .
