 Maximum recovery from an upper extremity injury is dependent not only on expert medical and surgical care, but also on the quality of rehabilitation services provided. We believe that each client is unique and requires an individualized program. Our goal is to restore maximum function and whenever possible, return the patient to their former lifestyle.
Patient Benefits
- Each patient receives individualized clinic and home programs to assure maximal recovery.
- Patients receive support and encouragement in dealing with altered lifestyles.
- Confidence in the ability to perform work, home, and leisure activities is restored.
Comprehensive Evaluation
Each referred patient receives a comprehensive evaluation of the upper extremities. Included in the evaluation are tests of motion, sensation, strength, pain and dexterity, and a functional assessment of activities of daily living.
Modalities
We offer neuro-muscular electrical stimulation, TENS, iontophoresis, biofeedback, ultrasound, fluidotherapy, hot packs, ice and hydrotherapy to facilitate return to function.
Splinting
Custom-made static and dynamic splints are fabricated to assist in the restoration of normal function, increase motion, lessen joint deformity, and substitute for lost muscle action.
B.T.E. Work Simulator
The B.T.E. is an exercise tool that monitors the patients performance during simulated work activities. The resistance and exercise time are controlled, and objective measurements of strength and endurance changes are automatically provided through a computer printout.
