Transform Your Pre-Surgical Hand Therapy Journey at Cascade Hand & Orthopedic Rehab
At Cascade Hand & Orthopedic Rehab in Fort Myers, FL, we specialize in providing comprehensive pre-surgical hand therapy services, addressing common hand conditions, and helping patients achieve optimal outcomes. Our evidence-based approach to pre-hab focuses on preparing your hands for surgery, potentially reducing recovery time and enhancing your overall well-being.
Pre-habilitation, also known as “pre-hab,” is a proactive rehabilitation approach that aims to strengthen, condition, and optimize your hands’ physical capabilities before surgery. This method has proven effective in preparing individuals for a variety of hand surgeries, such as carpal tunnel release, tendon repairs, finger joint replacements, and hand reconstructions. By participating in pre-hab, patients can experience reduced pain, improved hand function, and a faster return to daily activities.
Among the most common hand conditions that benefit from pre-hab are:
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: This condition occurs when the median nerve in the wrist is compressed, leading to symptoms such as numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand.
- Tendon Injuries: Tendon injuries in the hand, such as flexor or extensor tendon lacerations, can result in impaired hand movement, difficulty gripping objects, and reduced finger strength.
- Arthritis: Hand arthritis, including osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, can cause pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced hand function.
- Trigger Finger: Trigger finger is a condition where one or more fingers get stuck in a bent position, making it challenging to straighten or flex them smoothly.
Our hand therapists in Fort Myers, FL are highly skilled in designing personalized treatment plans to address these specific hand conditions and any associated limitations or restrictions. They closely monitor your progress and provide targeted interventions to improve hand strength, mobility, and function.
Pre-surgical hand therapy plays a crucial role in preparing your hands for surgery and maximizing your postoperative outcomes. By undergoing pre-hab, you can significantly contribute to a smoother recovery and faster return to your daily activities.
