Our hands help us work, exercise, create, and connect with others. So, when pain or injury strikes, it can feel incredibly disruptive. Simple tasks suddenly become difficult.
At Auckland Hand Rehab, we provide professional hand therapy for a wide range of upper limb conditions. Whether you have a recent injury or a long-standing issue, our goal is to support your rehab and help you return to what you love with confidence.
Fractures and Dislocations
Broken bones in the hand, wrist or elbow are common after falls, sport or workplace injuries. Prompt fracture treatment is essential to ensure bones heal in the correct position and function is restored.
We regularly manage:
- Wrist fractures
- Finger and thumb fractures
- Elbow fractures
- Joint dislocations
Fracture treatment may involve a custom fracture cast or splint, followed by broken hand therapy to restore movement and strength. As healing progresses, targeted physical therapy and hands on therapy techniques help reduce stiffness and prevent long term complications.
If you have an acute injury, our Urgent Care service can help you avoid the long wait in A&E and start the right rehab sooner.
Sprains and Soft Tissue Injuries
Not all injuries involve broken bones. Ligament sprains, tendon injuries and muscle strains are extremely common.
We frequently help with:
- Healing a sprained wrist
- Thumb ligament injuries
- Finger sprains
- Elbow sprains and strains
These injuries may not look dramatic, but without appropriate therapy, they can lead to ongoing pain and weakness. Early assessment allows us to create a tailored rehab plan that supports healing while maintaining safe movement.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Nerve Conditions
Tingling, numbness, or weakness in the hand may be caused by nerve compression, such as carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel occurs when the median nerve is compressed at the wrist, leading to pain and altered sensation in the hand. You can read more on the NHS Carpal Tunnel Syndrome page.
At Auckland Hand Rehab, hand therapy commonly includes splinting, activity modification advice and structured exercises to relieve pressure on the nerve. Early treatment can often prevent symptoms from worsening and reduce the need for surgery.
Arthritis and Overuse Conditions
Stiff, swollen, or painful joints can significantly affect daily life. We treat both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as overuse conditions caused by repetitive tasks at work, sport, or home.
Your treatment plan may include:
- Joint protection education
- Custom splints for support
- Strengthening and mobility exercises
- Hands on therapy to reduce pain and improve function
Our approach focuses on helping you maintain independence and continue the activities that matter to you.
