Abstract: The device for prevention of the abnormal joint rotation is comprised of an appendage securing section and a torso securing section. The appendage securing section is constructed and arranged to secure to the appendage having the abnormal joint rotation. The torso securing section is constructed and arranged to secure to the torso of the patient and to apply correcting pressure directed upon the appendage securing section, wherein the correcting pressure exerted by the torso securing section upon the appendage securing section counters the direction of the abnormal joint rotation. The torso securing section has means for coupling to the appendage securing section. In a single unit embodiment, the appendage securing section and the torso securing section are joined to form a wrap. Different methods of application of the wrap to patient's body could be used for prevention of either the external or internal rotation of the hip by providing directed pressure upon a leg suffering from the abnormal hip rotation.

Abstract: A therapeutic wrap and method for stabilizing a hip or a shoulder. The wrap comprises an elongated, flexible, relatively thin (⅛ inch) fabric strap that is secured around the hip and stabilized by wrapping and securing around the adjacent upper thigh region of the patient. The wrap having a movable pocket containing a magnet pad for strategically positioning so as to be juxtaposed with the injured hip or shoulder. The wrap is fastened in place by hook and loop closure system as is the movable pocket. The wrap is universal and can be used on either leg or shoulder by merely adjusting the length. The length of the wrap directly proportional to the body size of the patient.
