"I've tried the braces, the night splints, a cortisone shot every cream out there. My hands would go numb and wake me up every single night. This is the first thing that actually let me sleep, and I can open a jar again."

Frequently Asked Questions

Four targeted actives, no filler. L-Arginine drives circulation into the tissue at the base of the finger; MSM supplies the sulfur that connective tissue is built from; Arnica Montana soothes the soreness and puffiness around the tendon; Magnesium Chloride eases the tension that builds up through the palm and hand. No proprietary blends — what's on the label is what's in the jar.

It's transdermal. Worked into the base of the finger and the palm, the actives absorb locally into the tissue right where that tendon runs — instead of being swallowed and diluted across your whole body like a pill. The tissue around a finger tendon has a modest blood supply of its own, which is exactly why getting soothing, circulation-driving actives directly over it matters.

Most drugstore creams are a single ingredient that sits on the surface and fades — a cold or warm distraction you keep reapplying. Lumen is four targeted actives — Arginine, MSM, Arnica and Magnesium — made to absorb in and build up with daily use, soothing the finger and driving circulation into the tissue rather than just masking a signal for an hour.

A small amount worked into the base of the affected finger, along the tendon and down into the palm — morning and night. Massage it in until it absorbs. Easiest first thing before you get out of bed, and again before sleep. Because it works by building up with consistent use, doing it daily is what matters most.

Most people feel a cooling, soothing sensation on contact from the very first use. The bigger shift — less stiffness first thing in the morning, an easier time opening the hand — tends to build over the first few weeks of daily use, and keeps compounding from there. It's a daily ritual, not a one-time fix.

Use it for a full 30 days. If you don't notice a real difference in how your hand feels — looser, more comfortable, easier to open — just email us and we'll refund your first order. No questions asked, no hoops.

Not a miracle. Still using it.

61F. Right ring finger started catching last spring and got to where I was reaching over and pulling it straight every morning before I got out of bed. I bought this expecting nothing — I have a night splint in a drawer that did about as much as wearing a sock. What I can tell you is the pull got easier first, and somewhere around week five I noticed I hadn't done it in a few days. Whether that's the cream or just time, I couldn't tell you. But I'm not stopping to find out.

Read up on it first, bought it anyway

Went looking into whether anything really absorbs through skin before I ordered, and came away thinking a lot of those claims are oversold. Bought it because my sister has been using it and she'd stopped complaining about her thumb. Six weeks in: it still catches now and then, but it doesn't lock up on me the way it did, and I'm not bracing every time I pick something up off the counter. Docking a star because the jar is small for the price and I go through it faster than I expected.

Jury's still out

Been using it about three weeks. Some mornings I think the finger is looser and some mornings I'm not sure I'd notice if I stopped. I understand these things can take a while, so I've ordered a second jar rather than give up on it yet. No complaints about the company — arrived quick, no subscription nonsense, which is more than I can say for the last thing I tried.

Back at my sewing machine

I'm 59. Middle finger, right hand, going on a year now. I want to be honest that I also started doing the stretches my physio gave me around the same time, so I can't tell you which one gets the credit. What I do know is I'd been avoiding my sewing machine since last summer because of the way that finger grabs, and I did two hours on Sunday without thinking about my hand once. Achy afterwards and worth every minute of it.

Your Daily Ritual

Looser in 30 Days

A dab into the base of the finger and the palm, morning and night. Arnica, MSM and Arginine absorb right where the tendon runs — soothing stiffness and driving circulation where you need it. Here's how it unfolds.

Week 1

The Ritual Begins

Your finger starts getting the actives right where it sticks. The first thing most people feel is the cooling, soothing sensation on contact — and working it into the base of the finger morning and night quietly becomes part of your routine. Early on, the edge starts coming off the morning stiffness.

Week 2

The First Real Shift

The actives are building up in the tissue around the tendon. This is where most people start noticing it — the finger loosens sooner in the morning, the catch doesn't feel as sharp, and the hand opens with less effort behind it.

Week 3

You Stop Thinking About It

The finger stops announcing itself every time you close your hand. Jar lids, buttons, the car keys — you stop bracing for the catch, and you stop reaching over with your other hand out of habit. You're not working around it anymore. You're just using it.

Week 4 & Beyond

Back To What You Love

Used daily, the actives keep soothing the tendon and supporting circulation, and the comfort compounds. Opening your hand stops being something you think about, you grip without hesitating, and working it in becomes the non-negotiable part of your day — so you can keep doing what you love.

Inside Every Jar

4 Active Ingredients. One Job.

No proprietary blends. No filler. Just four targeted actives working together to soothe the tendon and drive circulation — right where the finger catches.

Arginine Drives Circulation

L-Arginine

Converts to nitric oxide to help open the blood vessels and drive circulation into the tissue around the tendon — reaching a small, hard-to-reach spot the way a swallowed pill can't.

Arnica Montana Soothes

Arnica Montana

A mountain botanical used for generations to soothe. Calms the soreness and puffiness at the base of the finger from the moment it goes on.

MSM Supports Tissue

MSM

A natural sulfur compound — sulfur being what your body builds connective tissue from. Supports the tissue the tendon glides through, and soothes on contact.

Magnesium Chloride Eases Tension

Magnesium Chloride

Absorbs to relax the muscles and ease the tension that builds through a sore, guarded hand — so the whole palm settles, not just the one finger.
