The wrist support includes at least one lateral edge strap (14) attached to the sheet (12) and configured to extend over one of the lateral edges and attach to itself so as to secure the sheet.(12) about the wrist. The wrist support (10) further includes a viscoelastic pad located on an inner surface of the sheet.
