wrist supports

Arm-end stabilizing bands

Wrist supports are braces or wraps worn around the wrist to stabilize the joint, reduce strain, or aid recovery from injury.

They range from simple elastic bands to rigid splints.

Athletes use them during weightlifting or racquet sports; office workers wear them to prevent repetitive strain: My doctor recommended wrist supports for typing.
