The portfolio spans five product lines—JAS SPS, JAS Dynamic, JAS EZ, JAS GL, and Advance Dynamic—covering the knee, elbow, wrist, shoulder, Pro/Sup, MCP, finger, thumb, ankle, and toe, sold through clinics, physicians, and direct-to-patient channels with insurance reimbursement support.

Products and services

• JAS SPS (Static Progressive Stretch) Devices JAS SPS devices use patient-controlled, infinitely adjustable static progressive stretch to restore range of motion across joints including knee, elbow, wrist, shoulder, Pro/Sup, MCP, finger, thumb, ankle, and toe. Designed for patients recovering from surgery, injury, or contracture and prescribed by physical therapists and physicians.
• JAS Dynamic Devices JAS Dynamic devices apply gradual dynamic stretching using a patented adjustable spring that delivers gentle, consistent tension across the full deflection range, preventing joint compression. Available for knee, elbow, wrist, shoulder, Pro/Sup, MCP, ankle, and toe. Used in clinical and home rehabilitation for ROM restoration.
• JAS EZ Devices JAS EZ devices provide an accessible entry-level ROM therapy option featuring a simple turn-knob adjustment that eliminates the screwdriver tension adjustments required by traditional dynamic splints. Available for knee (extension and flexion), elbow, wrist, shoulder, Pro/Sup, and ankle.
• JAS GL Devices (International Only) JAS GL devices offer full-range, bidirectional ROM therapy built on the Motion Arc design, reinforced for durability, and restricted to international distribution outside the United States. Available for knee (extension and flexion), elbow, wrist, shoulder, Pro/Sup, finger, ankle, and toe.
• Advance Dynamic Orthoses Advance Dynamic orthoses are easy-apply telescoping braces providing early low-load prolonged stretch for permanent ROM gains, featuring shape-to-fit contour cuffs with memory foam pads and Telefit technology. Available for knee (extension and flexion), elbow (extension and flexion), wrist (extension and flexion), Pro/Sup (pronation and supination), and ankle.

Direct peers

• Össur: Össur is a global orthopedic devices company with bracing and supports that compete directly with JAS's ROM therapy products. Both target orthopedic patients and clinicians in the US and international markets with orthotic solutions.
• AliMed: AliMed distributes a broad catalog of orthopedic, rehabilitation, and medical supplies, including ROM and orthotic devices that overlap with JAS's product lines. Both serve therapy clinics, hospitals, and home-care patients.
• Performance Health: Performance Health distributes therapy and rehabilitation products including braces, supports, and ROM devices. The company serves physical and occupational therapy clinics that are also JAS's core customers.
• North Coast Medical: North Coast Medical supplies orthotic, hand therapy, and rehabilitation products used by therapy clinics and occupational/physical therapists. The customer base and product categories overlap directly with JAS.
• Breg: Breg is a direct competitor in orthopedic bracing, supports, and cold therapy products. Both companies sell physician-prescribed orthotic devices for joint rehabilitation, targeting therapy clinics and orthopedic patients with overlapping SKUs across multiple joints.
• TheraTogs: TheraTogs makes orthotic therapy garments and systems for postural, ROM, and neuromuscular training. The company targets the same therapy clinic and rehabilitation patient customer base as JAS.
• Enovis (formerly DJO Global): Enovis/DJO is a direct competitor in orthopedic bracing, recovery, and rehabilitation devices. Both companies serve therapy clinics and orthopedic patients with ROM and bracing products across multiple joints and use physician and clinic GTM motions.

Broad incumbents

• Stryker: Stryker is a broad medical device incumbent with significant orthopedic and surgical portfolios. While not specialized in orthotic ROM, Stryker competes for orthopedic patients and clinician mindshare across the same post-surgical conditions JAS addresses in rehabilitation.
• Hanger Clinic: Hanger Clinic is a large orthotic and prosthetic services provider that dispenses and fits orthotic devices. While primarily a clinical services company, it competes for the same patient pool and clinician prescribing relationships as JAS.
• Zimmer Biomet: Zimmer Biomet is a global orthopedic reconstruction and device incumbent. Its broader musculoskeletal portfolio overlaps with the patient conditions JAS treats in post-surgical rehabilitation and could credibly expand into orthotic ROM.
