The Therapy Department provides personalized and individualized hands-on treatment of all injuries, acute, chronic, and degenerative illnesses.
We are dedicated to creating an atmosphere of wellness and professional hospitality in the specialty of upper extremity rehabilitation. We evaluate and assess our patients and their presenting conditions, develop treatment programs and deliver comprehensive care so they can lead fully functioning, healthy lives. The highly qualified hand therapists and professional staff is there to assist in optimal patient recovery and physician communication.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.
At the Hand Institute Therapy Department, we feel a positive, healing environment is necessary in the recovery process and essential for achieving your personal goals. That’s why our team is comprised of certified hand therapists/occupational therapists and a certified occupational therapist assistant with over 20+ years in practice with hand and upper extremity conditions. The team has specialized knowledge of upper extremity functions to work together to continually assess your progress and design the most effective treatment to decrease your pain level, and restore range of motion, strength and function of the upper extremity. Our Hand Therapists are certified by the Hand Therapy Certification Commission (HTCC) which requires five years of experience as a physical/occupational therapist, 4,000 hours of direct patient experience in Hand Therapy and the successful completion of the Hand Therapy Certification Exam.
