Wellness

Our hands perform dozens of tasks daily that we largely take for granted until we cannot do them. If you have lost function in one of your hands, the Hand Clinic at ACAC can help. We provide specialized therapy services like custom splinting and therapeutic activities to heal hand and upper extremity health problems of all kinds.

At the Hand Clinic, we focus on the whole picture, not just the particular injury. Our occupational therapists create treatment plans that take into account each patient's individual abilities, the tasks they need to be able to perform, and their work and living environments. Our goal is to return every patient to maximum functional independence as quickly as possible.

In the field of hand therapy, the credentials (CHT) Certified Hand Therapist, distinguish an Occupational Therapist as someone with the highest professional expertise in the specialty of hand therapy. Earning the designation of CHT places the individual in an elite group of specialists who have met the standards set by experts in the field of Hand Therapy. Utilizing the best treatment protocols, the therapists help the patient return to functional and productive living.
