Your hands and wrists are vital for everyday tasks, and pain or dysfunction can significantly impact your quality of life. At Charleston Hand Therapy Center, we specialize in treating a wide range of wrist and hand conditions with personalized care plans designed to relieve pain, restore strength, and improve dexterity.
Conditions We Treat
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve is compressed at the wrist, causing numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand. We provide nerve gliding exercises, splinting, activity modification, and post-surgical rehabilitation.
Trigger Finger (Stenosing Tenosynovitis)
Trigger finger causes a finger to catch or lock when bent. Treatment may include splinting, therapeutic exercises, and ultrasound therapy to reduce inflammation and restore smooth tendon gliding.
Arthritis of the Hand and Wrist
Both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis can significantly affect hand and wrist function. Our therapists provide joint protection education, splinting, therapeutic exercises, and pain management strategies.
Tendon Injuries
Flexor and extensor tendon injuries require specialized rehabilitation protocols. We work closely with your surgeon to ensure a safe and effective recovery.
De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis
This condition affects the tendons on the thumb side of the wrist. Treatment includes splinting, activity modification, and therapeutic exercises to reduce pain and restore function.
Dupuytren’s Contracture
Post-procedure rehabilitation focuses on restoring finger extension and preventing recurrence.
Wrist Fractures
Whether you have had a distal radius fracture, scaphoid fracture, or another wrist injury, our therapists provide comprehensive post-fracture rehabilitation.
Nerve Injuries
We treat peripheral nerve injuries of the hand and wrist, including median, ulnar, and radial nerve injuries, using specialized techniques to promote nerve healing and restore function.
