What 3-Point Products does
3-Point Products, Inc. is a privately held medical device manufacturer founded in 1997 by Julie Belkin, an Occupational Therapist and Orthotist, and headquartered at 118 Log Canoe Circle, Stevensville, Maryland. The company designs and produces customizable orthoses — splints, braces, compression sleeves, silicone gel sheeting, and protective gloves — for upper and lower extremity musculoskeletal conditions including arthritis, trigger finger, CMC joint pain, ulnar deviation, carpal tunnel syndrome, de Quervain's tenosynovitis, hammertoes, and scar management. Its catalog of over 30 FDA-registered Class I medical devices spans finger splints (led by the patented Oval-8 design and 3pp Buddy Loops), thumb braces (Prima, CMCcare, ThumSling, Fix Comfort), hand/wrist/elbow orthoses (Fix Comfort Wrist Brace, Carpal Lift, Wrist POP), foot/toe splints (Toe Loops, Bunion-Aider, FS6), scar care (Gel Mate), and protective gloves (Protexgloves). Differentiators center on clinician-grade adjustability — heat-moldable thermoplastics, memory-stretch materials, multi-strap systems, and the 44-size Oval-8 clinic kit — designed to enable in-clinic custom fitting in seconds.
3-Point Products operates a hybrid go-to-market: it sells directly to healthcare professionals (occupational and hand therapists, physicians) via phone, email, and live chat; distributes through a tier-1 U.S. medical distributor network including McKesson, Henry Schein, Medline, Performance Health, Alimed, and North Coast Medical; reaches 20+ international markets through country-specific distribution partners in Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, South America, and Africa; and runs direct-to-consumer sales via its Oh My Arthritis (OMA) ecommerce platform at ohmyarthritis.com, launched in 2014. The Clinic Connect program provides live product demonstrations and samples to 1,000+ enrolled therapists, supported by a content ecosystem of product videos, comparison charts, detail sheets, eIFU documentation in nine languages, and an active multi-channel social presence.
The company's revenue mechanics are entirely transactional unit sales of physical medical devices priced per splint or kit, with no subscription, SaaS, or licensing layer. All products are one-time purchases with no disclosed pricing; healthcare professionals contact customer service for quotes, while consumers buy online through OMA. The company has remained independent and bootstrapped across its 25+ year history, with no venture, private equity, or strategic investor activity, no acquisitions, and no executive changes on record. As a Class I device manufacturer, 3-Point Products is FDA-registered under 21 CFR Part 820 with required instructions, precautions, and labeling on each package.

3-Point Products competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Saebo: Specializes in upper-extremity orthoses for neurological and orthopedic conditions (stroke, hand contracture, spasticity). Directly comparable product category (functional hand/finger orthotics) and clinician-led go-to-market.
- Alimed: Specialty distributor and manufacturer of rehabilitation and orthopedic products including hand, thumb, and wrist orthotics. Overlaps with 3-Point across clinician-targeted upper-extremity bracing and shares the same OT/PT customer base.
- Hely & Weber: Manufacturer of orthopedic braces and supports with a strong upper-extremity portfolio (wrist, thumb, elbow). Comparable specialty positioning targeting occupational and physical therapists.
- North Coast Medical: Rehabilitation product distributor with an in-house orthotic line for hand and upper-extremity conditions. Competes in the same clinic-channel prescriber market and offers similar sizing and customization features.
Broad incumbents
- Performance Health: Owner of the Rolyan and Sammons Preston brands and a major US distributor of upper-extremity orthotics. Directly competes with 3-Point via its own product lines while simultaneously serving as a critical distribution partner for 3-Point products — making it both ally and competitor.
- Breg: Broad-line orthopedic bracing company (knee, shoulder, wrist, elbow) owned by Orthofix/Enovis. Competes for the same clinician and distributor shelf space with a much wider product portfolio and IDN contracting capability.
- Össur: Global orthopedic device leader in bracing and supports. While primarily known for lower-extremity and prosthetic products, Össur competes in select upper-extremity categories and pressures premium niche players via scale and hospital contracts.
- Medi USA: Manufactures orthopedic braces and compression garments including wrist, thumb, and elbow supports. Comparable product categories in upper-extremity orthotics with broader international distribution.
- BSN medical (Essity): Through Jobst, Actimove, and Leukotape brands, BSN/Essity offers compression and orthopedic supports including hand and wrist braces. A global incumbent with similar clinician and distributor channels.
- Enovis (DJO): Parent of DonJoy, Aircast, and ProCare, Enovis/DJO is one of the largest orthopedic bracing companies globally. Competes broadly across upper-extremity bracing and is the dominant supplier in many of the same distribution channels 3-Point relies on.
