Key Benefits of Our Elbow/Wrist/Hand Pain Services at Arlington Physical Therapy
1. Lasting Pain Relief
Our hands-on techniques like joint mobilization, soft tissue massage, heat/ice therapy, and kinesiology taping target the source of your discomfort for true, lasting pain relief. We also provide targeted exercises and stretches to do at home to extend those benefits. Patients find this integrated approach extremely effective at reducing or resolving persistent aches and pains.
2. Improved Mobility and Function
Restricted range of motion and stiffness makes everyday tasks much harder. Using manual therapy and customized exercises, we’ll improve flexibility and mobility in your wrist, hand, and elbow joints. Patients regain abilities like turning door knobs, opening jars, using tools, playing sports, and more with ease.
3. Prevention of Further Injury
We educate patients on proper joint mechanics, ergonomics, activity modification, and self-care strategies. By learning what causes your symptoms and how to avoid future aggravation, you can prevent pain episodes and further injury. These personalized tips and adaptations allow people to stay active and independent.
4. Enhanced Rehabilitation Outcomes
For those recovering from injuries, surgeries, or overuse issues, our focused rehab improves outcomes. Manual techniques reduce post-op swelling and scar tissue formation while targeted strengthening prepares the elbow, wrist, and hand for return to activity. Patients progress faster and with less setbacks.
