Over-use,
often referred to as repetitive trauma syndrome, is the number one
cause of pain and dysfunction in the hand and upper extremity. Hand
therapy can be a very effective treatment for soft-tissue conditions
such as carpal tunnel syndrome, trigger finger, thumb pain, tendinitis,
tennis elbow, etc.
Treatments vary from 30 to 60 minutes per session depending on the
issue and severity and include a deep heat paraffin dip, soft-tissue
release, trigger point therapy and facilitated stretches. Call Bill at

particular issue.
