Does this brace have a metal support under palm?

Yes it does. It's a little more flexible than the Orthopaedic wrist support I use to sleep. I have severe Carpal Tunnel (bi lateral)

Yes and it's very comfortable. I have been sleeping in these braces for several years.

i would think so, its a velcro belt what goes around your wrist. hope it helps. My mom loves this little brace!

If the brace is on properly it is comfortable. If you start to slump it does feel a little uncomfortable under the arms.

Yes, three metal braces lay across the base. Very sturdy and even improved the feel of our mattress.

Yes, the fitted brace is on the palm side consistent with most hand & wrist braces I've used in the past. My only complaint with Mueller is the length of the velcro'd straps - too short

It has a thumb hole on both sides so it can be worn on either right or left hand. It works really well for me with just a slight adjustment of the inside pillow, it tends to move just a bit sometimes. I really love this brace, it works for me!

It is a nice brace and fits well up the arm but I find it a little too loose on the hand part - I think because it is for either hand and the thumb hole is too large. I am using it for carpal tunnel relief and it does help some!

Yes, the pole and umbrella supports or "spokes" are metal on ours. There are a few plastic pieces, e.g., the cap on the top of the umbrella, the ring that all the metal spokes fit into, and the housing on the pole where the handle is located. However, for the price, we feel it is a decently-made umbrella; it raises and lowers smoothly. We haven't owned it that long, but, so far so good!

Yes,it has an adjustable strap that can be tightened to your comfort level, which helps stabilize weakness that may occur in your wrists.the sleeve is elastic and very durable.

It does not. The material is cordura-like (similar to a back pack) with similarly design straps that wrap around both sides. This is an incredibly good brace per the experience of my son and I for basketball, soccer, baseball, and general outdoor activities.

Comes with a brace that can be used for support. I have had no problems with this model. It is much better than the one that is less expensive.

The brace provides good support. However, if you lift heavy objects, it is important to watch your posture and lifting habits to avoid any injuries.

I don't think this is a brace for strength as much as comfort, such as warmth for arthritis. Others may use if for running, but I didn't use it as brace to support a joint for secured mobility.

Yes to both questions. The side brace offers some support but is not metal. I find them easy to get on, and they fit me better than braces made for both sexes.

The Mueller brace Protects my thumb from bending,it is great for that,it is inforced with Metal thumb Splints.

No. I was not impressed with the "brace"- it really did not add that much stability- much better products available

It has a soft splint, like a hard foam. It will protect you from twisting and spraining your wrist but is not strong enough to prevent collision damage like the hard shell on the palm
