They are elasticized cloth wrist bands or sports wraps. Each of these is impregnated with a unique blend of natural rare earth semiconductors that increase circulation to reduce or prevent swelling, help the muscles regain strength and prevent or lessen the sharp pain in joints from tendon stress.

What are they used for?
Primarily to control wrist pain and swelling. They are ideal for tired aching swollen muscles or joints.

"By nature, I’m a skeptic. When my brother-in-law suggested I try an elastic band for my carpal tunnel problems, I quietly laughed. After explaining to me that the band was impregnated with semiconductors, I laughed some more. In fact, I continued laughing while wearing a band immediately after a particularly painful episode of my condition. However, my laughter stopped when I realized something--the band, in fact, did work! Unfortunately, the "band" was given to me after I went through several months of conventional treatment for my condition. This included the use of a fitted removable cast in addition to two to three hour-long hand therapy sessions over a period of six weeks. I am curious as to whether or not the use of the "band" would have shortened the treatment time."

Study: Workplace not always main carpal tunnel wrist pain culprit
"What we know is any abnormality or any disease that will cause the lining of those tendons to become inflamed can cause carpal tunnel syndrome," hand surgeon
Ailments such as diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disease and gout often are culprits. Others are pregnancy, birth control pills and sudden weight gain, which causes fluid retention.
Still, findings published in the journal Archives of Internal Medicine show the real cause of hand pain is often misdiagnosed.
Then why are workplace activities often blamed?
"If one is sitting on the edge, so-to-speak, strenuous, continuous use of the hand doing particular movements can precipitate carpal tunnel syndrome. I didn't say cause; I said precipitate," Roderique said.
Doctors say in that many states, the laws are not in sync with what is known in medicine, and the workplace is left to foot the medical bills.
Researchers say if an underlying medical condition is diagnosed and treated, carpal tunnel syndrome can get better, and even be cured, without any workplace changes.
Hello:
From Medical Correspondent Rhonda Rowland
(CNN) -- Repetitive-motion injuries are being reported at an alarming rate in all types of workplaces -- from newsrooms to meat packing plants. However, a new study finds that jobs such as typing on a keyboard are not always the cause of such ailments as carpal tunnel syndrome.
In the study, two-thirds of patients diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome actually had underlying medical conditions or were obese.
