Claim:
A method of making a wrist support, comprising the steps of: (a) molding a first section such that the first section is configured to receive a forearm; (b) molding a second section such that the second section is configured to receive a hand; and (c) molding a bridging section; (d) wherein the bridging section is integrally formed with one of the first section and the second section, and extends between and connects together the first section and the second section; (e) wherein the bridging section is generally flexible and recoverable and permits flexing of the second section relative to the first section in a radial-ulnar plane when a forearm is received by the first section of the wrist support and a hand is received by the second section of the wrist support, the bridging section biasing the first section and the second section toward a particular disposition relative to each other; and (f) wherein the bridging section is molded such that an intermediate portion of the bridging section has a height in a volar-dorsal plane that is greater than its width in the radial-ulnar plane.
