i need something to keep me from clenching my fists at night, would this prevent the hand from curling into a fist?

No not at all, the inside palm area is filled with gel beads that provides extra comfort when you sleep

I think it will help clenching. You will still be able to curl your fingers a little but the padding in the palm area of your hand will keep you from clenching. I am using mine and it is really helping with my hands/arms going numb. I put them on and adjusted them to be tight but comfortable and I can still slip them off and then on again without undoing the velcro.

You are still able to curl your fingers. There is a soft pad in the palm of the hand which would prevent you from making a tight fist.

The brace wraps around to lift the wrist slightly, pointing the hand upward, which makes the fingers curl. So technically you can still make a fist, but its more like wrapping your fingers around a tennis ball instead of your nails digging into your skin. Pick up a tennis ball and grab it. That would be almost the same as what your hand can do with this brace.

I never thought of that! I don't see why not. I would put it on at night and wear cotton gloves. It works on your feet why wouldn't it work on you hands.

Yes. Definitely adds a layer of protection. I let my children try woodcarving using one on their non-dominant/holding hand. So far, so good. Don't be over-confident, but these should really help.

These gloves gently squeeze but don't restrict movement like a wrist brace does. You might ask your doc or PT if these gloves would benefit you in other ways, ie helping to keep fingers warm.

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

As the video shows, you wear it in your Palm and either grip or strike pressure points and vulnerable areas. I would not suggest wearing it on top of your knuckle and striking closed fist.

I have no problem closing my fist around the Griffin Grip. It fills in the gaps and makes my fist harder like a roll of quarters.

From my personal experience, you can adjust the amount of the restriction. If you use it during your sleep, it will keep your arm very close to your body, based on your adjustment..

Yes i have been i several fights while wearing them. They dont interfere with grappling. They protect your hands from teeth and other sharp things. They transfet alot of energy into the punch as well.

Yes, It depends on how big your hands are, but I can and definitely would recommend wearing wraps for a little more wrist and knuckle support, especially if you are going to be doing a lot of training.

hi, i tried to do that but definitely this product is to protect your hand inside of boxing glove.

Hi Carmen, I'm not a Dr but if you need to stretch and hold your fingers spread out this will help. They work as pictured. My fingers cramp and curl into my palm. After use my hand relaxed and fingers stay straight longer. It's not a instant fix. I am using mine when ever I'm sitting and find myself trying to stretch out my hand.. You know yourself, try this and see if you are feeling better. I did. This helps my pain. You're already interested, I'd say that you have answered your question. Good luck to you.

I only use them at night and on my right hand, where I have some arthritis. That doesn't mean the left hand glove is useless. I just turn it inside out, and: voila!, it is for my right hand also.

I don't know. I use it to hold on to my racquetball racquet as I don't wear a glove

You can. However, it's kind of uncomfortable to wear it for the whole night because of the pressure from the clip action into your finger. It could also get knocked off during sleep movement. For DYI sleep study, you should try to use the one that has the external soft finger tip sensor that is designed for sleep study.

If you are just doing cardio kickboxing type stuff, it doesn't really matter because you won't actually be hitting with any power anyway. If you plan on learning to actually box, get another glove as this one does not offer the wrist support needed and you will injure yourself. It happened to me and one other person in our gym. I suggest looking at some Title hook and loop gloves if you want a real boxing glove and not crap that is sold to people who don't know any better.

These wrist wraps are designed for wrist protection when hitting a heavy bag the knuckles & thumb must also be protected, i do not recommend using these wraps for that purpose.
