Hand Therapy
Hand therapy combines comprehensive knowledge with specialized skills in the assessment and treatment of the upper extremity.

- fractures of the hand and upper extremity
- upper extremity amputations

Treatment may include, but is not limited to:
- custom splint fabrication
- specific functional and goal-oriented exercises to restore motion and strength of the upper extremity
- home program instruction and patient education
