Hand Therapy
Hand Therapy at Artistic Advantage begins with an extensive evaluation of the injured tissue and discussing what interventions will be used to facilitate healing and regain function.
We emphasize symptom management techniques discussed in your first visit to help with pain, motion, and swelling. Tissue works 24/7 to get better. We’ll teach you ways to support it as the symptoms fluctuate.
Comprehensive Evaluation
Each patient undergoes a comprehensive evaluation, identifying the impact of injuries and conditions on function and performance. We develop custom treatment plans based on our findings, i.e., range of motion, muscle control, joint stability, and sensation. We see various conditions that include, yet not limited to, fractures, sprains, lacerations, hypermobility, auto immune, and degenerative conditions.
Healing Modalities
The use of ultrasound, electric stimulation, soft tissue/joint mobilization, myofascial release, low level light therapy, and paraffin aid in various stages of healing as precursors to exercise.
Custom Treatment
Therapeutic exercise and functional activities are used to remediate the problems caused by disuse, misuse, weakness, and instability. We integrate taping and wearing splints with activity, while adjusting exercises and modifying activities for effective retraining of movement patterns and coordination.
