Comments: “ In my professional opinion, these gloves are one of the BEST inventions created in the fitness/wellness industry EVER! Experiencing horrific overuse injuries due to an extensive yoga practice (and my job) ranging from a painful cyst on my wrist to soft tissue damage in my palms, my career and my sanity were at stake! Since practicing with Wrist Assured Gloves I am virtually pain-free! Many of my students use the gloves and LOVE them! Several clients that would normally not be able to perform so many exercises are now able to do them with grace, ease and joy and can tap into their true strength! I feel it is imperative to use these gloves both as a preventative measure or if one is recovering from an injury. For me practicing without Wrist Assured Gloves is like practicing yoga without a mat and without the breath! I am so grateful to have come across this miraculous product. Thank you!”

Profession: Registered Dietician

How Wrist Assured™ Gloves are used? Power, Ashtanga and Vinyasa Yoga

Years Practicing Yoga: 6

Leisure Interests: yoga retreats, golf, weight training, running

Comments: “I have rheumatoid arthritis and due to the erosion of cartilage in my wrist, I have limited wrist extension. Prior to the gloves I needed to use various props, including a piece of wedged wooden molding to enable me to practice yoga. The interruption of moving the props around on the mat affected my dharana (concentration). I am now able to flow smoothly from pose to pose without interruption. I also love how small and compact they are for traveling.”

Yet to do in life: Travel to Australia.

Maria is not able to fully extend her wrists. Her Rheumatoid Arthritis has caused erosion in the cartilage or articulating surfaces of the bones in the wrist.

To practice yoga and bear weight on her hands, Maria had to either modify her poses or use a variety of commercially available props. She even created her own prop – an angled piece of wooden molding.

Maria’s determination enabled her to practice yoga using her wooden molding along with a foam wedge for some asanas, but the placement and removal of the props interrupted her concentration and flow of movement.

The props were awkward and safety was a concern as she had to be very careful about the placement of the props for wheels and arm balances. When she traveled to a yoga retreat, she had bulky props to pack. But then Maria found us and our Wrist Assured™ gloves were just the solution she had been looking for – a wearable wedge that moved with her.

Now Maria flows easily from one asana to the next without a break in her dharana (concentration)!
