AliMed® Turnbuckle Knee Orthosis applies gentle, low-load force to knee contractures from 45° flexion to 10° hyperextension. Turnbuckle mechanism provides excellent control,allowing the therapist to adjust force in small increments.
Place the orthosis around the leg and secure the straps. Then, using the turnbuckle, adjust flexion angle to allow a gentle extension force on the contracture. The orthosis is preset at 30° flexion and 25° hyperextension. If desired, a simple adjustment changes the range to 45° flexion and 10° hyperextension.
Lined with terry cloth for comfort. Fits left or right knee. Select seamless Warming Knee Sleeve for extra comfort.
