ABSTRACT:
A combination or kit for making a body or limb encircling therapeutic device which includes a plurality of body or limb encircling bands, each individually adjustable for length to apply the desired pressure or provide desired support to the body or limb of humans or animals and a band anchoring tape long enough to bridge two or more adjacent bands and to maintain them in proper edge-to-edge relationship. The combination or kit also includes a plurality of splicing elements having an interlocking fabric material on one surface which interlocks with interlocking fabric on the outer surface of the band and on one surface of the anchoring tape so that in the event it is necessary to cut the band angularly to obtain conformity of the band with body or limb contour to shorten the band by removing a span thereof, the band ends with the band anchoring tape between them can be locked together by the application of the splicing element.
