Carpal Tunnel Syndrome relief obtained while sleeping. Instead of compressing the area as normal bracing, the Hand/Wrist Restorer provides elongation of tissues involved.
(PRWEB) November 1 2003--Inventor/entrepreneur, Clyde Morgan, of Olathe, Kan., is one of 10 top finalists in the United Inventors Association/Inventors Digest 2003 National New Products Hunt, sponsored by the Proctor & Gamble Company, in August, to Celebrate National Inventors Month. Morgans invention, the Hand/Wrist Restorer, was selected out of more than 400 entries submitted by inventors from across the United States.
Produced by TruMed Technologies, Inc., Burnsville, Minn., using 3M medical tapes, the Hand/Wrist Restorer is an innovative disposable device designed to combat symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and minimize the need for surgery.
The Hand/Wrist Restorer promotes circulation and proper nerve conduction by expanding the area around the carpal tunnel. Symptoms of tingling hands and fingers that disturb sleep are relieved, facilitating the bodys healing ability to restore grip strength, and elongating affected tissue through gentle stretching, while sleeping.
Morgan hopes to reduce workers compensation premiums by encouraging companies and employees to work together to relieve symptoms, when still in the strain stage, before a diagnosis of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome; while also making the device available to sufferers of Carpal Tunnel compression symptoms who are unable to afford the cost and time off from work that are associated with more traditional treatments.
According to UIA Executive Director, Robert Loughor, It is a fantastic accomplishment for any inventor to make it this far in the competition. The submissions we received were diverse and exceptionally well developed. Independent inventors have been the backbone of our economy since the founding of this great country. New products mean new industries, and new industries mean new jobs."
The UIA is a nonprofit educational organization for independent inventors and an umbrella organization for the nations inventor groups. Experts in new product development served as judges.
