The American Society of Hand Therapists (ASHT) recognizes June 2-June 8 as National Hand Therapy Week. Hand Therapy Week raises awareness about the hand therapy specialty, demonstrating the advantages of prevention and treatment procedures for patients who have been affected by an accident or trauma, and educating the public.
Hand therapists provide important services after medical treatment allowing patients to function normally in their daily lives. Texas Orthopedics is proud to have three certified hand therapists that work closely with our patients suffering from various conditions like arthritis and carpel tunnel syndrome.
From biking to gardening to safe turkey carving tips, ASHT offers these important safety and prevention advice when it comes to protecting your hands from serious injuries.
