Our Services
Your recovery journey begins with the right touch. We’re here to provide expert care with genuine compassion.
At the Hand Therapy Group, we have the skills and experience to assess and treat conditions affecting the hand, wrist and upper limb. Our practice employs physiotherapists and occupational therapists who have undertaken special training to become hand therapists. The majority are Accredited Hand Therapists (as awarded by the AHTA).
We work closely with a number of leading hand surgeons in the Sydney region.
Hand therapy will include a thorough assessment of your problem, advice on how you can manage it, and a home program of exercises and postural correction. We also offer the fabrication of thermoplastic splints and waterproof casts, if required for appropriate fracture care and post-op management.
