Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Can physical therapy help carpal tunnel syndrome?

Yes, particularly for mild to moderate symptoms. Care can include nerve and tendon gliding exercises, instrument-assisted soft tissue massage, cold laser therapy, advice on hand and wrist positions at work and during sleep, and stretching and strengthening.

Do I need therapy after a wrist fracture?

Many people do. After the cast or splint comes off, wrists are often stiff and weak. Physical therapy works on motion, grip strength and the everyday tasks you need to get back to.

What is De Quervain's tenosynovitis?

It is irritation of the tendons on the thumb side of the wrist, often painful when gripping, pinching or lifting a child. Treatment focuses on calming the tendons and changing the movements that keep irritating them.

Do I need a referral for hand or wrist physical therapy?

No. Massachusetts allows direct access to physical therapy. Some insurance plans still require a referral, so call either clinic and our team will check.
