We start by conducting a thorough evaluation often within days of the injury or surgery and then develop a recovery plan tailored to the patient’s specific needs. Our focus is on providing a continuum of care throughout the recovery process while valuing the importance of one-on-one time with each patient. Our experienced hand therapists can offer patients help to return them to a productive lifestyle.

• Management of acute or chronic pain
• Desensitization following nerve injury or trauma
• Sensory re-education after nerve injury
• Design and implementation of exercise programs to increase motion dexterity and/or strength
• Training in the performance of daily life skills through adapted methods
• Conditioning prior to returning to work

• Patient education with a focus on home exercise programs for mobility, strengthening, stabilization and protective body mechanics to restore function and help avoid future injury.
• Strain-counter strain, a treatment technique designed to greatly reduce muscle pain.
• Joint and muscle mobilization techniques that are designed to restore range of motion and reduce pain.
• Modalities such as cervical and lumbar traction, interferential current (TENS), ultrasound, heat and ice that are used appropriately to help reduce pain, inflammation and muscle guarding.

• Fractures of the hand, wrist and forearm
• Ligament injuries of the wrist and hand
• Burn injuries
• Tendon and nerve injuries/repairs
• Cumulative trauma (tendonitis, carpel tunnel syndrome, etc.)

• Physical Capacity Evaluation
• Functional Capacity Evaluation

• Craniosacral therapy
• Joint mobilization
• Manual traction
• Muscle energy techniques
• Myofascial release Orthopedic
• Manual Physical Therapy
• Soft Tissue Mobilization
• Stretching
• Trigger point releases
  

• Any patient who has a wound, acute or chronic, that is not showing signs of healing after 3 weeks; patients with complicated surgical wounds.
  

• The provision for optimum care and cost containment has shifted wound care from the inpatient to the outpatient setting.
• Wounds can be demanding, time consuming and costly to manage in the primary care setting.
• The trend in early discharge of patients necessitates provision for continuation of wound assessment and appropriate management.
  

• Appropriate referrals: surgeon, orthotist, podiatrist, etc.
• Assessment of etiologic factors, wound status and nutritional status;
• Compression therapy for patients with venous ulcers;
• Conservative instrumental debridement and chemical cauterization of hypertrophic tissue and closed wound edges;
• Patient, family and caregiver education; Prophylactic foot and nail care for patient with diabetes and/or lower extremity arterial disease (nail debridement, paring of corns, treatment of callouses, and patient education regarding appropriate foot care and footwear);
• Recommendations for basic nutritional support for wound healing (Consultation with a nutritionist would be required for patients with complex nutritional needs);
• Recommendations regarding appropriate topical therapy;
• Recommendations regarding correction of etiologic factors; Vascular and sensory motor assessment (participant in the Lower Extremity Amputation Prevention Program);
