ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An axial digital traction system is disclosed in a hand application. A traction plate is anchored close to the base of the fingers or metacarpophalangeal joints by a hook and loop type fabric fastener, such as that sold under the trademark "VELCRO" connecting the traction plate to a fingerless glove-like anchoring member worn by the patient. Tension elements fastened to the traction plate are trained over rollers at the end of the plate and connected to finger traps which grip the patient's fingers. An alternative traction plate arrangement facilitates treatment of individual digits and provides for greater range of independent articulation of an mcp joint while under treatment.
