HAND THERAPY

Our Hand Therapy staff includes Certified Hand Therapists who have extensive training in the shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand treatments.  Upon completion of a thorough evaluation, our Hand Therapists develop an individualized treatment plan so that they may assist the patient in restoring their upper extremity function to maximum levels following an injury, illness or surgery.    This plan may include treatment modalities, patient education and therapeutic exercise.  Our Hand Therapists may also fabricate upper extremity splints, when prescribed, to assist with a patient’s recovery.
