ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for re-educating the finger joints of a hand. The hand is rested on a support at a finger joint and an articulated segment of a finger is engaged by the apparatus. Portions of the apparatus move so that the finger tips of the engaged fingers are moved in a spiral path toward the palm using the support as a fulcrum. This spiral motion is performed by a single, motor-driven slide-guide to which one or more of the articulated segments are engaged.
