Tell us what your hands need to do
Your evaluation considers movement, sensation, strength, coordination, and the task itself. Bring information about your diagnosis and any restrictions from your treating clinician.
- Carpal tunnel or ulnar nerve problems affecting hand use.
- Hand or thumb arthritis and stiffness.
- Tendon-related problems, including trigger finger or de Quervain's.
- Recovery after a hand or wrist fracture or surgery.
Follow the right recovery plan
Healing tissues need an individual plan. Your surgery, injury, and medical instructions guide timing and precautions. Bring the referral, procedure information, and prescribed splint or support.
Therapy can focus on movement, swelling, scar-related limitations, and useful hand tasks when appropriate for your stage of recovery.
Make daily tasks more manageable
Care may include selected movement and coordination work, changing a task, or using an appropriate aid. If touch is uncomfortable or sensation has changed, describe how it affects daily use.
Splint use and everyday routines may be part of the plan. Ask about a specific fabrication or equipment need before booking so we can clarify the service available.
When the difficulty follows a neurological condition
After stroke or brain injury, hand use may also involve changes in movement control, attention, or sensation. Our neurological arm and hand guide explains that care pathway.
Common questions
Do I need a diagnosis before calling?
You can call to explain your concern. The office can discuss evaluation options, referrals, and any medical information needed before your visit.
Can I start therapy immediately after surgery?
Timing depends on the procedure and your surgeon's instructions. Share the recommended rehabilitation plan with our office before scheduling.
