Mackie Wrist/Flexion Extension
The Mackie Wrist brace provides static stretch for conservative treatment of soft tissue contractures that are less than six months from onset. The goal of this treatment is to accomplish a low stretching force maintained over a long period of time. This will safely and effectively stretch soft tissue contractures with lasting results. The brace may be used post-operatively or for contractures due to trauma, post-op adhesions, immobilization, muscle strength imbalance, arthritis, burns, cerebral palsy, stroke, or traumatic brain injury to maximize range of motion.
