Are you working digitally? As a former painter, filmmaker and moved to digital artist @ mid 1990's. If you are having CPS symptoms already I'd suggest you invest in more ergonomic input devices, there are a wide array available. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Post injury devices are not long term solutions. I don't have a recommendation for you about your brace question, apologies.

Yep, we're both working entirely digitally. I have a pretty good setup, but my partner has to work with whatever equipment they're given at their school for the next year, so there's not much we can do about that.

I used to be the program Chair at a design college, she needs to go talk to somebody in the administration (not a teacher) and ask for assistance as she has a medical issue affecting her education. The school is legally bound to assist her in achieving her education despite her symptoms, most likely they will be happy to help. Good luck.

THEY don't have a serious problem with carpal tunnel or anything yet, that's why I'm looking to get them a wrist brace to help prevent it before it happens.
