Cockup Splint – Wrist Immobilization Brace for Carpal Tunnel, Wrist Drop & Nerve Palsy in Dubai

Are You Suffering From Wrist Pain, Numbness, or Weakness?

If you feel pain, tingling, or numbness in your wrist and hand — especially at night or after repetitive tasks — you are not alone. Millions of people in Dubai and across the UAE deal with conditions that affect wrist function and cause significant discomfort. Whether it is a nerve problem, a tendon injury, or recovery from a fracture, these issues can seriously impact your daily life, work, and independence.

The Cockup Splint may help support the following conditions:

• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) — compression of the median nerve causing hand numbness, tingling, and weakness
• Radial Nerve Palsy — nerve damage that leads to wrist drop and inability to extend the wrist
• Wrist Drop — inability to lift the wrist due to nerve or muscle weakness
• Extensor Tendon Injuries — torn or damaged tendons on the back of the hand or wrist
• Post-Operative Wrist Fracture Management — recovery support after wrist surgery or broken wrist treatment
• Hand and Finger Deformities — where the wrist needs to be held in extension to correct posture
• Wrist Tendonitis — inflammation and pain from overuse or repetitive strain
• De Quervain's Tenosynovitis — thumb-side wrist pain from inflamed tendons

Common signs that may indicate you need a wrist splint include burning or tingling in the fingers, weakness when gripping objects, wrist pain after typing or writing, swelling around the wrist, and difficulty extending the wrist normally. If you or someone you care for in Dubai or the UAE is experiencing any of these symptoms, a Cockup Splint may be an important part of your recovery plan.

How the Cockup Splint Can Help You

The Cockup Splint is a carefully engineered wrist orthosis that holds the wrist in a gentle extension position — typically between 20° and 30° dorsiflexion. This functional position reduces pressure on the median nerve, supports healing tendons, and prevents the harmful drooping movement that worsens nerve palsy. Unlike a full arm cast or rigid splint, the cockup design allows your fingers to move freely, so you can continue light tasks while protecting your wrist.

Here is how the Cockup Splint works to support your recovery:

The Cockup Splint is designed to be easy to apply and remove using simple hook-and-loop (Velcro) straps — a critical feature for elderly patients, post-operative patients, or anyone with limited hand strength. It is lightweight enough to wear during the day, and many patients and clinicians recommend it especially for nighttime use to prevent unconscious wrist flexion during sleep.

Why the Cockup Splint from Steps Creators Is the Best Choice

Not every wrist splint offers the same level of quality, comfort, or clinical effectiveness. The Cockup Splint available through Steps Creators is selected and fitted by certified orthotists who understand wrist biomechanics and patient comfort. Here is what sets it apart:

• Malleable Aluminium Stay: The internal aluminium bar can be shaped precisely to your wrist anatomy, ensuring the correct extension angle is maintained for your specific condition — not a one-size-fits-all approach.
• Medical-Grade Construction: Built to clinical standards, the splint provides reliable structural support for acute injuries, nerve conditions, and post-operative management.
• Soft Foam Padding for Comfort: The interior foam lining cushions the wrist and hand against pressure points, making the splint comfortable for extended wear — even overnight use.
• Hook and Loop (Velcro) Closure: Simple, tool-free straps allow patients to put on and remove the splint independently, which is especially important for elderly patients or those with limited dexterity.
• Finger-Free Design: The low-profile design keeps the fingers completely free, allowing patients to manage everyday tasks like eating, writing, or light work while still protecting the wrist.
• Durable & Easy to Maintain: Made with materials that withstand daily use and can be cleaned easily — a practical choice for long-term wear throughout the recovery period.
• Available in Multiple Sizes: From small to extra-large, the splint is sized to fit a wide range of patients — men, women, and older adolescents across Dubai and the UAE.

Every Cockup Splint fitting at Steps Creators includes a professional assessment by certified orthotists who will evaluate your condition, select the correct size, and shape the aluminium stay to your wrist for optimal support and comfort.
