At Arizona Center for Hand to Shoulder Surgeons, our therapists specialize in clinically proven, advanced, patient-centered therapy treatments designed to improve function, mobility, and quality of life. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or preparing for surgery, our dedicated team of therapists provides expert care for the hand, arm, shoulder, and knee.

Additionally, we offer Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs) to assess your physical capabilities and guide personalized treatment plans.

Hand, Arm & Shoulder Therapy

The upper extremities play a crucial role in daily activities, and any injury or condition affecting your hand, arm, or shoulder can significantly impact your life. Our therapists are skilled in treating a wide range of conditions including:

  • Post-surgical rehabilitation
  • Rotator cuff injuries
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Tendonitis and tendinopathies
  • Fractures and dislocations
  • Arthritis management
  • Sports injuries

Through personalized therapy plans that may include manual therapy, strengthening exercises, and modalities such as ultrasound or electrical stimulation, we focus on reducing pain, restoring function, and enhancing your overall mobility.

Customized Hand and Arm Splints

In addition to traditional therapy services, we offer customized hand and arm splints designed to support and protect the hand, wrist, and arm following injury or surgery. Our splints are tailored to the unique needs of each patient, ensuring comfort and proper alignment during the healing process. These splints can:

  • Immobilize joints to aid in the recovery of fractures, sprains, and soft tissue injuries
  • Provide support for conditions such as arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and tendonitis
  • Be designed for specific needs such as post-surgical rehabilitation, injury prevention, and pain relief

Our team will collaborate with you to create a splint that fits your anatomy and lifestyle, promoting optimal healing while helping you maintain functional mobility.

Knee Therapy

Knee issues can arise from injury, overuse, or degenerative conditions such as osteoarthritis. Our knee therapy treatments are designed to reduce pain, improve range of motion, and strengthen the muscles surrounding the joint to enhance stability and mobility. We specialize in the treatment of:

  • Knee sprains and strains
  • Post-surgical rehabilitation (ACL, MCL, Meniscus repair)
  • Patellofemoral pain syndrome
  • Osteoarthritis and degenerative joint conditions
  • Knee fractures or dislocations

Our therapists employ a combination of therapeutic exercises, manual techniques, and functional training to restore optimal knee function and help you get back to the activities you enjoy.

Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs)

A Functional Capacity Evaluation is an essential assessment that helps determine an individual’s ability to perform work-related tasks, physical activities, or daily living tasks. This comprehensive evaluation is ideal for individuals recovering from injuries, post-surgical patients, or those seeking to return to work after a long-term disability.

An FCE typically involves:

  • A series of physical tests that assess strength, endurance, and flexibility
  • A review of medical history and current functional limitations
  • Objective data that helps guide treatment planning, return-to-work decisions, and rehabilitation goals

FCEs are invaluable for employers, insurance providers, and healthcare professionals in evaluating the functional capabilities of individuals. Our skilled therapists will work closely with you to ensure an accurate, reliable assessment and a tailored rehabilitation plan.
