Physical Therapy
Our team of licensed physical therapists and occupational therapy certified hand therapists understands that each patient has unique rehabilitation needs before or after surgery, or as a result of a medical condition or orthopaedic injury.

What is the difference between an occupational therapist and a physical therapist?
An occupational therapist helps you with performing day-to-day activities. A physical therapist helps you to get back in motion. In some cases, you may start with a PT to build back your muscle strength, and then switch to an OT.
