The hook-sensitive wrist and thumb unit comes in Pediatric (S, M-L) and Adult (S, M, L) sizes for either the left or right hand. Made of the same foam-backed material as our TheraTogs garments, the Wrist & Thumb Positioning System is both comfortable and effective in supporting and maintaining joint position gains that are available with manual correction.
Prescribe it as a stand-alone functional alignment aide, or use it to extend a TheraTogs strapping application from the shoulder or elbow to the hand.
TheraTogs ULTRA Wrist and Thumb Positioning Orthotic System Uses:
- Improve wrist and thumb stability
- Restore the palmar arch
- Reduce flexible ulnar deviation
- Assist in reducing forearm pronation or supination
- Relieve pain associated with malalignment
If you can correct wrist and thumb alignment with your hands, without force, you can use TheraTogs to carry over that correction positioning your client's day-long activities in corrected functional alignment.
TheraTogs ULTRA Wrist and Thumb Positioning Orthotic System Contents:
One Wrist & Thumb System (specify Left or Right when ordering)
One Forearm Supination Wrap
One Rotation Strap
One Limb Cuff
Three Split Straps
Size-appropriate tabs
Marker dots
Donning, fitting, and strapping instructional materials.
Note: System contents may vary slightly by model size.
Clinicians and clients who are familiar with blue TheraTogs may find that GoldTone's superior strength requires less strapping to achieve desired benefits.
GoldTone is not available anywhere else in the neuromotor or orthotic markets and cannot be used on other products. It was formulated and created under our direction, especially for TheraTogs systems, using a patented fabric finishing process. TheraTogs are designed to support functional alignment and provide posture stability on many of the systems that we offer.
TheraTogs are an FDA-registered Class I medical device, providing gentle and prolonged muscle stretch and alignment that replicates the manual positioning and supervised therapy that the rehab clinician offers in a typical session. Commonly known as wearable therapy devices, the benefits of having thousands of repetitions in the garment to align correctly are readily apparent. These softgoods are not an off-the-shelf tool to be used without professional direction, however they are easy to wear and care for once properly fitted and instructed on how to best utilize them. The complete line of TheraTogs include the new Wunzi for infants, the PTA system, full body, lower extremity, autism/SPD and wrist/thumb. We hope that you will contact us with any questions that you may have before purchasing.
Theratogs Systems purchased through Rehabmart are intended for U.S. residents. Purchasing this item for use outside the U.S. will void all warranties.
Today there are five primary TheraTogs models used by occupational therapists:
Posture & Torso Alignment Systems - Correct posture, improve respiration, and improve torso alignment in seating and standing.
Autism/SPD Systems - Provide full-torso proprioceptive input and postural support for mild hypotonia.
(New!) Wunzi Infant Systems - A special infant-only design, similar to the PTA in function and benefits - availability just announced.
Full Body Systems - Addresses a full range of torso and upper extremity issues, including shoulder subluxation, scapula winging, and brachial plexus injury.
Wrist & Thumb Systems - The most adaptable wrist and thumb support system on the market (pediatric sizes only).

NEW GoldTone fabric was developed during three years of R&D and field trials to meet the demanding performance requirements of TheraTogs systems. GoldTone is specifically formulated for the demands of biomechanical retraining, and manufactured using a patented fabric finishing process.
Advanced Properties Include:
- GoldTone is a superior knitted material that has stretch, tension and rebound properties specifically formulated for the demands of biomechanical retraining. GoldTone is manufactured with a patented fabric finishing process, and used only for TheraTogs Ultra Systems.
- Unlike other stretch materials, GoldTone grips the wearer's skin and soft tissue with a unique, comfortable foam layer. This allows TheraTogs Ultra systems to reposition and retrain the neuromotor system without uncomfortable compression or hard bracing.
- TheraTogs ULTRA components will maintain biomechanical corrections firmly for over nine hours of daily wear, and rebound to their original size overnight.
- GoldTone is a subtle golden tan in color, making it less noticeable under clothing and cooler to wear. The Velcro hook used for garment and strapping tabs is custom-matched to the lustrous GoldTone fabric surface, and can handle repeated application and removal of tabs.
Result: TheraTogs Ultra Systems made with GoldTone offer clients the 'best of all worlds' with day-long dynamic correction, superior durability, and foam-lined comfort.

WHAT ARE THERATOGS? HOW DO THEY WORK?
TheraTogs are specialized undergarments and straps customized for your patient to create a live-in system that provides either neuromotor or postural training, or prolonged proprioceptive input.
For patients with biomechanical or neuromotor issues, TheraTogs work by allowing the clinician to set the patient’s body in proper functional alignment, and letting them re-train their body through the ‘practice’ of daily activities.
By applying prolonged, gentle forces during activity, TheraTogs can actually change the muscle and connective tissue – and for infants and young children, bone and joint development as well – in favor of better function and better alignment.
|
For patients with sensory and sensorimotor issues, TheraTogs work by applying consistent, gentle compression and proprioceptive input across the entire trunk, and by offering stability and support in a dynamic system that moves with the patient.
|
Using TheraTogs as ‘wearable therapy’, your patient can gain the experience and the benefits of an all-day clinical therapy session. This is what we mean when we tell clinicians they can “send their hands home” with TheraTogs.
Rather than receive only 1 to 3 hours of therapy per week, the typical TheraTogs client receives up to 16 hours of wearable therapy every day. |
