The invention relates to an orthosis for correcting the position of a body joint, said orthosis extending over the two members connected by the body joint and being provided with two arms forming the orthosis, said arms each being held on the respective member by a cuff and being interconnected by a pivot joint adjacent to the body joint. For the bending required during normal movement, the pivot joint is formed by an axle ring embraced by the one arm, said axle ring being fixedly connected to a ring bearing eccentric with respect to the axle ring to form a central adjusting ring. Said ring bearing forms a pivot bearing for the other arm, said pivot bearing being embraced by said other arm, wherein the rotation plane of said ring bearing with respect to the rotation plane of the axle ring is pivotable through rotation of the adjusting ring by such an angle that the arm supported by the ring bearing-and, with it, the thereby held member-assume a pivot position of said member in relation to the extended normal position, depending on the rotation angle of the adjusting ring with respect to the arm connected to the axle ring.
