Abstract
A wrist support device including a compressible support or pillow configured for positioning under the hand and wrist of a user, a stabilizing adapter plate and a glide plate disposed below the compressible support/pillow which enables the support/pillow to glide over a planar support surface smoothly and quietly. The compressible pillow is especially configured to receive the wrist in order to hold the wrist in a natural position without interfering with the ability of the user to type or perform other skills using a keyboard.
