Prosthetic care and splint fabrication: Home health OT, Tampa, FL.

At HandsOnNeuroRehab, our skilled occupational therapists excel in providing splint fabrication and prosthetic care for individuals with limb loss or those requiring joint support for various conditions. Our compassionate, dependable, and experienced team is dedicated to helping clients adapt to their new abilities and regain independence through the use of custom-made splints, prefabricated braces, and prosthetic care.

Limb shrinkage and desensitization techniques are utilized with prosthetic care to promote reintegration back into normal daily activities with improved comfort. Stretching, manual therapy, and physical therapy are performed to strengthen the adjacent muscles to promote readjustment to the prosthetic.

Joint deformities, hand pain, stiff fingers, trauma, and other age-related changes can cause us difficulty with daily activities. Splinting can improve function by supporting joints and preventing nerve impingement. A comprehensive evaluation by a certified hand therapist can help determine which splint may help improve your function and reduce your hand/wrist pain. Popular custom fabricated and fitted prefabricated splints available in the home-based setting include trigger finger splints, thumb spicas for dequervains tenosynovitis, short opponens for CMC OA, tennis elbow sleeves, and various finger braces to support fractures and sprains. HandsOnNeuroRehab focuses on training and hands-on support to help individuals effectively use splints and prosthetics, enabling them to complete daily tasks with confidence, decreased pain, and improved function. Contact us today to learn more about splint fabrication and to receive a comprehensive evaluation and recommendation from a certified therapist.
