Carpal Tunnel Night Mitten | 213CTS
Therapeutic mitten designed to relieve nighttime CTS symptoms
This innovative mitten is designed to ease nighttime discomfort caused by Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) and help you sleep better — pain-free.
Key Benefits:
• Relieves pain and numbness in the fingers during sleep.
• Promotes a gentle, relaxed hand position that reduces pressure on the median nerve.
• Supports healthy blood circulation for faster recovery and improved comfort.
• Made from soft, breathable fabric for optimal ventilation and long-lasting comfort.
• Ideal for nightly use — lightweight, comfortable, and easy to wear.
Dimensions
Extended description
- Scientific Design: CTS Night Mitten was developed with a deep understanding of the biomechanical and pathophysiological mechanisms behind Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Its structure provides soft yet precise support to the wrist and surrounding tissues, promoting healthy blood flow and ensuring comfort throughout the night.
- Ergonomic Structure: The ergonomic inner mold gently positions the fingers in a natural, slightly flexed posture — not too straight and not overly curved. This alignment reduces tension on the deep flexor tendons passing through the carpal tunnel and relieves pressure on the median nerve. A light wrist strap adds stability and keeps the mitten securely in place without creating localized pressure points.
- Advanced Materials: The combination of nylon and elastane delivers the ideal balance of controlled stretch and flexibility. The breathable fabric helps prevent sweating and maintains skin temperature balance, crucial for prolonged overnight use. Minimal stitching around the wrist and fingers helps prevent irritation and ensures smooth, uninterrupted sleep without pressure or discomfort.
- Rehabilitation Support: Beyond nighttime comfort, the mitten promotes natural recovery of soft tissues. Its anatomical positioning helps reduce local swelling, improves venous and lymphatic drainage, and supports proper wrist alignment during rest. The result is a renewed balance between tendons, nerves, and blood vessels — easing strain, reducing recurrence of pain, and restoring hand comfort and mobility by morning.
- CTS Night Mitten is more than a support device — it’s a therapeutic tool that works quietly through the night to help your hand heal and recover naturally.
Instructions for use
- The mitten is intended for use during sleeping hours.
- Make sure the Velcro closure around the forearm is not too tight.
- Before going to sleep, make sure to tighten the Velcro closure of the finger splint securely.
- At the end of sleep, the mitten should be removed.
- It's worth checking how often you wake up in pain, and making sure the treatment is actually improving the pain at night.
Our expert advice
- It is recommended to incorporate additional treatments, such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, strengthening exercises, stretching, and even to explore with the treating physician the use of drug therapy, injections, or surgical treatment.
- The wrist joint needs a certain amount of movement throughout the day. Too little or too much movement over time can strain the joint and lead to wrist pain. Try to manage your daily routine so as not to overstress your wrist.
- Try to understand the root cause of the pain, and look for any activity that maintains the strain and pain. If you find it, work to reduce these factors. A root cause could be prolonged work in front of a computer, prolonged use of a cell phone at unusual angles, repetitive actions, or holding weight for extended periods (such as carrying a baby).
- If the product does not adequately help resolve the problem, please consult a physiotherapist or doctor regarding further treatment options.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS)?
This involves pressure on the median nerve as it passes through a narrow tunnel in the wrist. The pressure causes tingling, pain, and weakness in the hand and fingers.
What are the early warning signs that should set off a red flag?
Numbness or tingling in the thumb, index finger, and middle finger, a feeling of "pins and needles" in the hand, and sometimes pain that worsens at night.
Why do I wake up at night with numbness and pain in my hand?
When lying down, fluids tend to accumulate in the tissues, the pressure in the canal increases, and the nerve is "strangled." This creates the typical nighttime symptoms.
What tests diagnose the problem?
The diagnosis is based on a combination of symptoms, a physical examination by a doctor, and sometimes EMG or ultrasound tests for confirmation.
Does working in front of a computer cause CTS (Carpal Tunnel Syndrome)?
Prolonged typing or mouse use can worsen symptoms in those predisposed to the problem, but they are not the only cause.
Is it dangerous if left untreated?
Initially, the symptoms are just annoying, but over time the nerve can be permanently damaged, leading to weakness and decreased sensation.
What conservative treatments are available?
Reducing the strain that caused the problem, wearing a night splint, exercises that help relieve pressure on the nerve, and physical therapy involving strengthening and stretching.
When is surgery usually recommended?
When there are progressive signs – weakness, permanent loss of sensation, or failure of conservative treatment.
How long does it take to recover from surgery?
Usually a few weeks to months. Most people return to full function, but recovery varies from person to person.
Are there exercises that can help alleviate the symptoms?
Yes, gentle stretching exercises for the median nerve, exercises to improve wrist mobility can help, exercises to improve blood flow in the hand, and massage in various ways.
Do athletes suffer from this too, or is it just a "keyboard" problem?
Athletes can also develop CTS, especially in strength or repetitive sports (weightlifting, cycling, gymnastics on apparatus or floor).
Why does the pain get worse specifically at night?
When lying down, there is less movement and fluids accumulate in the canal area, which increases pressure on the nerve.
How is pregnancy related to the occurrence of the syndrome?
During pregnancy, hormonal changes cause a tendency for swelling and fluid retention, which increases the pressure in the carpal tunnel.
Is it possible to prevent the problem in advance?
It's difficult to prevent it completely, but lifestyle changes like taking movement breaks at work, stretching, and maintaining a healthy body weight can reduce the risk.
Why do certain fingers go numb while others don't?
Because the median nerve only innervates the thumb, index finger, middle finger, and half of the ring finger – but not the little finger.
Can CTS (Carpal Tunnel Syndrome) go away on its own without treatment?
In the early stages, especially during pregnancy, the symptoms may resolve on their own. In other cases, treatment is usually required.
