Working on wrist mobility & strengthening after amputation.
A few other things we work on during OT: desensitization of the residual limb, thumb remnant pinch, elbow and shoulder mobility/strength due to stiffness caused by immobility.

Did you know Occupational therapists make customized splints? These two hand splints were made for a patient who had fractures in the 1st and 2nd digits.
👍🏼👆🏻
There are generally 4 purposes outlines for the client need of splinting:
1. Immobilization
2. Mobilization
3. Restriction
4. Torque transmission (alter the force felt from an area)
🙌🏼
Typically, the referring doctor will specify if they want the client to have a splint made.
😊

Excited to show off this patient who is using a static progression orthosis!
😯
Our patient had a cooking accident and experienced a ring finger fracture that required multiple surgeries.
😖
Her flexion in that finger became very limited but now after some rehab sessions in conjunction with the orthosis, she is closer to making a fist! We are so happy with the progress she’s made so far!

Here we have our patient performing the BIRD DOG 🐦🐶
She is doing this core exercise to improve stability and encourage a neutral spine. She is an avid gym enthusiast but she is experiencing low back pain.
This is one of the many exercises we do that focus on relieving her symptoms. It strengthens your core, hips, and back muscles. 💪🏼

JOINT STABILITY
☝️
Here we have one of our Physical Therapists, Dr. Ana, working with a patient on improving stability of the shoulder using rhythmic stabilization.
🔥
This is one of the many techniques our therapists use in order to help joints in need of strength, endurance, and stability.
Joints need stability in order to be protected and perform their best!

Having upper back tightness? 😓
Try this thoracic mobility exercise! Thoracic spine mobility is a precursor to optimal neck health, shoulder health, and so much more.

Ankle manual perturbations 👣
This patient had a right ankle ORIF. These exercises help with ankle instability. The application of perturbations (externally applied unanticipated forces used to disturb physical movement patterns) has been clinically proven to improve balance, joint stability, postural control and longer-term success with return-to-activity programs.
Our patient has improved so much after his car accident. We are proud of him and all his hard work in therapy! 👏🏼

Check out this advanced external rotation exercise of the shoulder using bands 💪🏼
This is an effective exercise that you can use to activate and strengthen your external rotator muscles (Infraspinatus and Ters Minor)
These exercises will be very humbling. You don’t need, nor will you be able to handle a lot of weight or resistance. 🙅🏼♀️🙅🏾
The external rotators are relatively small muscles and require strength endurance as opposed to maximal strength! 💥
Now it’s your turn to give it a try! 😎
Did you know we use rice in hand therapy sometimes? 🤔
This patient had a finger tip amputation resulting in hypersensitivity and stiffness. Therapeutic exercises with rice can help with desensitization and increasing digit range of motion. 👌🏻
He's now able to make a full fist and touch a variety of textures without pain! 👊🏼
