Terry/John.
I didn't use oils as Trevor had a thing about oils and such ... just hated them which was a shame.
I just gently sort of stroked the fingers gently pressing the joints a bit, as flat as they'd go without over doing it.
As for the finger straighteners. Orthotics was the word I was searching for! Thanks for the memory jog John. The physio referred Trevor to them.
Irene's finger straighteners sound a bit like the system Trevor had for night time.
The fingers stalls were for daytime use mainly
They might best be called straighteners too but they weren't like the night time ones. They were little tubes, cut to size and provided in different diameters for different fingers. They were made of a sort of firm fabric which was pulled onto the finger.
The fabric was just slightly stretchy but not too thick so the fingers could move individually. It held the fingers fairly straight. Good for "Ipadding" the forum!

Could be worth getting referred Terry if the curling is starting to cause you difficulties.
