Hand Physical Therapy Treatment:
Our doctors use ASTR to help relieve hand pain.
- ASTR Tools: Our doctors use a variety of ASTR tools to release myofascial restriction, which is very common with hand injuries.
- Releasing muscle trigger points and hypertonicity: it is very common with any injury that the muscle starts to spasm or tighten as a protective mechanism. Using the ASTR maneuver, patients can experience relief from muscle hypertonicity.
- Special exercise program to strengthen the weak muscles and stretch the tight muscles.
- Special instructions on how to speed up the recovery time.
- Cold Laser Therapy: cold laser is a very valuable tool that speeds up the healing process and decreases soft tissue inflammation very quickly.
