TENNIS PLAYERS:

"I had Flexor Carpi Ulnaris (FCU) tendinitis as I play lot of tennis. I tried everything but your wrist support bands did the trick. Lots of products "claim" they can do miracles but yours provided the solution. Great product and even greater quality."
- Ravishankar, Pennslyvannia

"I use NewGrip wrist support for tennis because they give me the extra support I need in my wrist. I have wrist tendonitis and these wraps put less strain on it. I love how they come in sizes because my wrists are tiny and this is the only wrap that can go tight enough on them. I play college tennis and use these wraps a lot for matches and practice! They definitely save my wrists from unwanted pain!

COMPUTER TYPING:

"Late last year I started experiencing sore wrists, a culmination of typing all day, and years of weight lifting. The pain was so bad, so severe, that I couldn't lift for months. But now, I'm stoked because NewGrips wrist support helped me not only physically but more importantly cognativly as well. Thanks man.......keep up the great work."
- Ryan L., Nevada

"I am a Medical Transcriptionist and work on a computer eight hours a day, nonstop. About two years ago I started having problems with aches and pains in both wrists. My husband found your web site and ordered a set of your wrist support band. Within a few weeks all symptoms stopped! Now, I will never again type without wearing them. Your wrist bands have worked wonders!"
- Valerie Kitts - Pennsylvania

SCIENTIST:

"Thanks Alan! NewGrips have been a huge help. I wear the strap on my right wrist when I type, and both straps + hand pads when I lift, and no pain ever since!"
-Jason Buhle, Cognitive neuro-scientist, NYC


PIANO PLAYING:


"I have been using your wrist support bands for a couple months when playing piano and they have really helped. I notice I am not rubbing my wrists when I finish playing and I do not have to ice them like I used to. The wrist bands keep my wrists warm and snug but they do not sweat. I am so happy now that I can play longer and not have any pain after.
- Vee Sullivan, Florida

PIANO TUNER:

"I wear your wrist support day and night, only to let my wrists breath once or twice a day. But if I don't keep them on at night, the difference in the morning is unbearable. They are absolutely brilliant. I tuned a piano the other day and I never lost sensation once and it was really out of tune too, but no tingles or pins and needles or numbness. Fantastic!"
- Pete Doyne, Canada

WHAT CAUSES FCU TENDONITIS?


FCU Tendonitis - Flexor carpi ulnaris


The tendon of flexor carpi ulnaris can be seen on the anterior of the distal forearm. On a person's distal forearm, right before the wrist, they will see either two or three tendons. Flexor carpi ulnaris is the most medial (closest to the little finger) of these. (The most lateral one is flexor carpi radialis muscle, and the middle one, if it exists, is palmaris longus.)

Approximately a quarter of athletic injuries involve the wrist and hand.

Here is a sensible, scientific, explanation:

"A neuro surgeon explained that ANY repetitive task that potentially can irritate the nerve interface in our hands can then affect our wrists.

He realized that many people who experience wrist pain, sore hands or sore elbows might find enormous relief from the simple realization that it is the nerve bundles in our fingers and hands that transmit inflammation which is often treated as signs of tendonitis, arthritic hands, wrist strain, carpal tunnel syndrome or tennis elbow.

Therefore if you have been digonosed with or suspect FCU tendonitis, then using NewGrip Wrist Support wraps may be just what the doctor ordered.

After using NewGrip wrist support the pain subsided in less than a week!"

—Prof. Philip Daughtry,
Santa Monica College
When you think about it.. that is THE truth.

The median nerve runs from your neck down your bicep, around your elbow, down your forearm and through your carpal tunnel (wrist).. at which point it branches out, along with several tendons, like a tree sending down roots.

These roots supply nerve bundles to your finger tips.

This explains why so many computer users and grocery clerks get so called 'carpal tunnel syndrome'.

What really happens is that the sensitive nerve endings in your fingers get damaged from over use and become inflamed.

Pain can be a sign of inflammation.

If the fingers and hands are not allowed to recuperate and cool down, the inflammation will affect the median nerve at its weakest point... wrist, forearm, elbow, bicep.

When this occurs it can be called 'wrist pain', 'sore wrists', 'wrist tendinitis', 'arthritic wrists', or 'carpal tunnel syndrome'... or even 'FCU tendonitis. Regardless of the name, each has the same root cause!

This is why it is vital to wear effective wrist support, even as prevention!

AN FCU Tendonitis Testimonial


"I had injury-induced wrist pain in the FCU tendons (Flexor carpi ulnaris) of both of my wrists for over a year when I heard about "NewGrip" wrist support.

They supported my muscles and relieved pain as the chronic injury healed. When I first read the testimonials and reports, I didn't believe it. So, I took the risk and bought a pair.

Then your NewGrips did what THREE (count 'em!) PROFESSIONALS couldn't do.

An orthopedic surgeon (including two excruciating cortisone shots), a physical therapist and a homeopath couldn't do a thing.

After hundreds of dollars spent on failed treatment, your economical, inexpensive wonderful solution set me on my way back to health.
Thanks a million!"

BACKGROUND.....

"After an injury in May 2008, I went to an orthopedic doctor in September 2008 who, after an X-ray that showed nothing, told me to take heavy doses of Ibuprofen, up to six times a day, for several months, and referred me to a physical therapist.

The therapist took all sorts of measurements and information, but her strengthening exercises weren't working, either.

I went back to the orthopedic doctor several months later, and he shot my wrists with cortisone. In addition to a LOT of pain, they only made things worse.

After that, I went to a homeopathic doctor. He gave me a bunch of herbs and explained the situation better than the other two doctors, but the herbs, aside from temporary relief, did nothing long-term.

I went back to Ibuprofen because the pain was so bad, and kept this way for several months. After a week of rehearsals (in August 2009, over FIFTEEN months!) for a play I was in, the dancing was so hard for my wrists that the pain at times was overwhelming.

WRIST WRAPS ARRIVE...

After the first week, when I got home, your wrist wraps arrived. The next week of dance rehearsals went by amazingly well. I had been injured for so long that the sudden relief was almost surreal. I took almost no pain medication. For the next four months, I wore the wraps almost constantly, even at night, and my wrists were much closer to fully functional.

The full braces that the orthopedic surgeon and the homeopathic doctor had recommended just stiffened my joints and made my muscles atrophy. My wrists reached a point where I was able to find a physical therapist who used non-invasive applied human kinesiology. That was a month ago. The news from the therapist is positive, and I'm on my way back to full capacity. I thought it was going to be a life-long thing; now it might be all done in less than two years."

The Science Behind our Wrist Support Wraps:

XXXTypical store bought wrist supports are either polyester or a 50-50 blend which causes perspiration and even itchiness. Not good. NewGrip wrist support straps are 100% cotton.

Cotton breaths and repeals perspiration.

NewGrip wrist support wraps stimulate the supply of warmth to the sore wrist. This improves the natural response of the body to increased temperature and causes it to enter a condition called homeostasis: whereby the body tries to lower the temperature to the area. In so doing it expands blood vessels with increased blood flow.

This adds heat to your sore wrists, causing blood vessels to increase in size, supplies nutrients and oxygen to your wrists and reduces inflammation. The added heat relaxes muscles and tendons which relieves pressure off the median nerve.

By applying as much tension as is comfortable to NewGrip wrist support, and by wearing them as often as possible, you will quickly experinece pain relief.

Wearing them as tight as possible helps keep the tendons, running through your wrist from bulging and keeps inflammation down.

    "I've gone over six months without a flare-up of tendonitis in my wrists (both), which is amazing, and apparently attributed to NewGrips which I now use religiously when weight training."

    Sore wrists and guitar playing are quite common. The several tendons and median nerve that run through the wrist (carpal tunnel) inflame from over use; not unlike guitar strings that get lose from over playing. Our wrist support for guitar playing keep those nerves and tendons in check the same way a capo keeps strings in check.

    "Grips work well. I no longer have soreness in my wrists. They do the job."
    -Billy King, California


    "I have used your wrist straps for only four days but I can tell a huge difference in the way my wrists feel."
    -Suzanne A., Georgia


    Here is a helpful site I discovered:
    SEVERE WRIST PAIN:

    "I've been playing drums for almost 10 years and I play hard and fast. I damaged both my wrists pretty badly. I couldn't play for a year and once they felt good enough to play they'd just hurt again right after practice. With your straps I have virtually no pain and actually a lot more strength on my snare.. it's quite amazing. If you ever need to convince someone that these work, send em my way."
