What Doctors, Patients, and Medical Professionals are saying about Doctor in the House

I have been using Doc In the House products for over six years; they are one of the best quality products I have seen. They are unique, especially the wrist braces with the night attachment. I use their wrist, shoulder, back and knee braces in my (DME) orthotics practice. The braces are easy to fit, customize and achieve good outcomes for the patients. Dr. Scott and his staff provide excellent support for any product or technical questions I may have. I strongly believe in — and strongly recommend – these high quality durable braces.

The system is most useful for immobilization of the shoulder and arm during periods of muscle spasms triggered by specific movements of these limbs. Additionally, the device can be reconfigured various ways to accommodate your needs and can even be utilized as a temporary pillow for various limbs during periods of rest

The Neck Free Shoulder System is a revolutionary breakthrough for orthopedic surgeons who care for shoulder pathology. It allows for an effective treatment of multiple shoulder diagnosis without worry of creating unwanted cervical spine and neck problems. My own patients compliment the Neck Free Shoulder System on its ease of use and its ability to produce positive results.

This is a great brace for Carpal Tunnel. I can type with it on and it really helps with the pain. This splint can be heated in a microwave (follow directions) for a heat treatment. The brace is large enough for the largest wrist and is adjustable to fit any size. It keeps my wrist from moving while my fingers and thumb are move very well while wearing the brace.

This is a cool brace you can make it fit perfectly for your wrist. It is comfortable and does a great job supporting your wrist.It is easy to Malta your wrist and easy to put on and secure when you put it on.

I have been using this splint for over 6 months and it is by far the most comfortable splint I have ever worn. Entire splint can be washed and left out to air dry. Velco straps are easily adjustable and thumb hole is generously sized. Highly recommend and I will be buying another pair if this pair ever wears out. I do recommend wearing a 2″ or 3″ cotton stockinette under them which can also be purchased on amazon (stockinettes will absorb prespiration and keep your Miracle Splints clean).

I have been very impressed with the products and the response from the company. They have gone above and beyond to help me get the correct brace for me. They have also provided me with a multitude of information to help with my healing process. I would highly recommend! I will be buying from them again!

Overall I’m happy with this brace. It has helped with my carpal tunnel and hand arthritis symptoms. As another reviewer stated, the strap nearest the elbow side was short. It fit me but might not others if you have big forearms, thus that is why I gave it 4 stars. Being able to “mold” it did make it more comfortable for me and has helped me to keep it on all night. Like all braces, it gets warm underneath the brace. I wish there was a brace that would not get warm underneath. Oh well. For me, it works better than the shorter braces and the type that has bean bag in the palm area, mainly because I keep it on all night. I don’t use the optional finger support. My fingers need to move some or get too stiff. But this may help others to have this support if needed. I’m glad I got this brace even though it cost a lot more compared to other braces.

I was told these would help me lots with hand pain – carpal tunnel and Deputrans (sp ?) caused pain. It is TRUE and so much so I think I can avoid surgery !

It’s comfortable wearing to sleep at night or watching TV. Unfortunately, I wish I could wear it when I’m using my mouse. It was to thick in the palm area.

Fit way better than the cheaper braces available. Helped completely relieve my carpal tunnel symptoms after about 5 weeks of wearing it to bed.

Nice adjustability. Great comfort. A bit pricey, so I’m really hoping they hold up at least twice as well as the ones I tried previously. Will update.

It’s a regular sling but you get support from the waist instead of the neck. It’s a waist sling. Clips on like a fanny pack. Nice change to the old fashion sling.

It is a great way to give up a sling and actually use something that will help keep your arm immobilized and able heal quicker.

The EZ Sling was the best sling I found. With a fractured and sprained elbow, I tried various traditional slings and a brace with little support and zero comfort. I needed support, comfort, and relief from my shoulder. I was also fearful of having a frozen shoulder.
The EZ Sling provided everything I needed and made the recovery process far better than the alternatives. Highly recommend.

This worked really well for my mom who ended up having nerve damage from a surgery! This helped take the weight of her arm off of her neck! Would highly recommend!

Although awkward to wear, it works great and has several adjustable straps depending on your needs. The outward rotation is supposed to promote faster healing.

Creative design. So much easier on your neck and shoulder than a traditional brace One person found this helpful

Very easy to use. Comfortable for my broken arm so I can walk around and have good support.

This has got to be the most ingenious way to support a broken arm or sore shoulder from a muscle issue or surgery. My mom just broke her arm and it was too high to put in a cast so she’s been suffering with neck pain from the strap that goes across the back of her neck. She has trouble sleeping due to the pain. This design is so much better and easier for her to endure day in and day out. This straps around the waist and gives you a shelf like box to rest your arm on. My mom actually goes back and forth between this and he other sling. It makes the time healing from this kind of injury much more comfortable.

Regarding the Neck Free System, I have been very happy with the results that the Neck Free System has delivered. I take care of a lot of very seriously injured patients. As a physician I am always looking for ways to help my patients with methods that are comfortable, effective and do not lead to any unwanted bad effects. I have found the Neck Free Shoulder system to be a great answer to the problem of shoulder injuries. It is very effective at immobilizing the shoulder and maintaining adequate stability that allows the shoulder to heal. The pillows that can easily be attached and detached with Velcro allow for an easy and comfortable range of motion to prevent contracture. The design feature that thrills me most is the fact that the patient’s neck does not have to anchor a sling; traditional arm immobilization devices create neck pain by dangling a heavy arm. The Neck Free system is comfortable, effective and helps prevent the creation of new neck problems. My patients have been very happy with this innovative device.

It helps ease pain. Numbness decreases with daily use. I wear it while watching TV

This unit is excellent for controlling shoulder internal rotation.

During times of prolonged pain or flare-ups, taking weight off shoulder aided in the relief of pain.

It helps me a lot. I love it. It takes the pressure off my arm.

The Neck Free Shoulder system is truly a functional and liberating non-invasive orthotic support system for patients with cervicobrachial pain and TOS symptoms. This device is an essential physical medicine intervention for patients who experience traction symptoms on sensitized nerve, joint and soft tissue pain in the neck and shoulder translated into dysfunction and pain in the entire upper limb without restricting freedom of motion in the critical scapulohumeral and cervical complex. Thanks for bringing this concept to market and allowing our patients a non-invasive means of controlling debilitating pain in their affected limbs.

I have a long arm cast for a wrist fracture. I also have a bad neck. This sling eliminates neck strain and is easy to use. Supports arm and weight of cast . The negative is you can not elevate fully. Best for a shoulder .

I’m an orthopedic physical therapist. I got this brace though for myself. I have a mild wrist instability that tends to cause problems when i play piano, guitar or drums too much (hobbies). The pros of this brace is that is incredibly comfortable and truly is as advertised; a dynamic support. It is rigid but quite flexible and that is ideal. I never leave reviews btw. I have bought so many braces over the years and i find many are good for total immobilization and a few basic wrist braces are good for sporting activities (think pure wrist wraps). These though I have not found to be helpful for me in reducing symptoms after guitar. For reference i have tried elastic wraps, wraps with rigid pieces in there, neutral rigid braces etc. Wraps do help reduce symptoms if i go workout with weights. I think that has to do with the variety of postures in those activities. Meaning mostly with weights I’m pretty good at controlling keeping the wrist in neutral but guitar requires me to contort my hand in all sorts of ways. The biggest con to this is the appearance is bulky. Another perhaps is that the support does go up into the hand which for certain activities even guitar for myself changes the way the activity feels but it didn’t interfere much at all with the ability to change hand positions which I think is because the brace is flexible. The appearance of bulkiness though is a negative for me as I will probably never wear this out. But I bought it for allowing me to increase my practice time on instruments without having to deal with the aching, soreness I usually experience a few days after and so far so good. I didn’t get paid for to write this or get any reward. I bought it with my own money. This is a very reasonably priced, comfortable neutral wrist brace that offers some ability to mold and customize the brace. It is very close to neutral braces I have seen hand therapists make customized for patients before. If you want a neutral wrist brace this is a really good option to start with.
