Joint Cinch

  1. The Joint-Cinch is applied for 1 hour gradually tightening the strap, 2-3 times a day.
  2. The strap is applied in the clinic and a pen mark is made as a starting point. The patient then marks maximum gain with a pen at home.
  3. The Joint-Cinch can be applied in various ways, depending on the joint involved and the degree of extension contracture. The basic loop is used to maintain finger position.

For proximal and distal interphalangeal joint flexion the tip of the finger is in the loop and the loop encircles the finger.
